I love Nordic Ware pans. They are heavy, produce great results and make every cake special. But this Pro Form Coffee Cake pan did not live up to my expectations.
For example, it took me 5 cakes to get the cake to come out properly in 1 piece. I used Pam, I used shortening and flour - what worked for me was a very heavy coating of shortening (I used Crisco) to make sure the cake didn't stick. Also the pan chipped a bit and I've never had that problem with a Nordic Wear pan before.
On the positive side, it does hold 13 cups of batter. Yes, I said _13_ cups of batter. So if you're making a cake for a crowd or doubled the recipe, it can fit into this pan quite nicely with little or no spillover.
I do recommend this pan but I'd advise heavy greasing of the pan when you use it. Otherwise, a good pan.
