I bought this pan to make a cake for my Mom for Mother's Day last year and have used it numerous times. I have never had an issue with it not coming out perfectly. This pan makes you look like you really know what you are doing. I have several of these specialty pans and love them all!

I am a Regular bundt baker. I have always used just the basic joe-schmo bundt pan...no biggie. With this Nordic Ware Rose pan, Oh my gosh! It just fell out with no effort on my part. With my other pan, I had to heavily grease and flour...and just pray it didn't stick too much. With the Nordic Ware, I lightly brushed with oil, and like pure heaven, my bundt came out so perfect! It cooked so evenly, and the inside so moist...such a huge difference, especially when it's with the same recipe that I have always used. I just love it! Last night, I bought 3 more Nordic Ware pans...the Poinsettia, (for the holidays), the Heart, (Valentines), and the basket weave with the fruit imprints on top. I know these pans are not cheap, BUT the quality of these pans, for me, makes all the difference in the world!

I have used this pan 4 times, and have finally perfected it on the 4th attempt. I swore that if it stuck on my last attempt that I would through the pan out the window. The first several times I only greased the pan and the cakes stuck 3 of the times. The key is using "Baker's Joy", a cooking spray you can find in your local grocery store or through the Nordicware website. This spray greases and flours in one. I used it last night and my cake literally fell out of the pan--it was wonderful. It also made the pan cleanup 100 times easier. Also, you can only fill the pan 3/4 of the way or it will spill over.

I have tried to use this pan over and over, and it does not work. I have coated it with every type of non-stick grease I could think of, and the cake completely sticks every time. It even takes 3 - 4 washings in the dishwasher, plus hand scrubbing to get the pan clean again. I keep trying to get the pan to work because it was an expensive gift from my daughter, but I've given up.

This pan made a gorgeous cake (using a plain box mix)! I made sure to spray the pan with Baker's Joy (has the flour mixed in already), the cake came out with no problems at all. I made a strawberry cake (for the pink rose affect), made a simple glaze using pureed frozen strawberries w/juice and powdered sugar. Then I added under the cake some hydrenga leaves from my garden for a true rose affect. It turned out so lovely. If you are considering this pan my recommendation is to go for it, you won't be disappointed.
