I have been searching for this pan for atleast ten years. I borrowed this pan from my cake decorating instructor to make a wedding cake for my uncle years ago, and was extatic when I found it on Amazon, and at such a great price! Do make sure you pay attention to the dimensions though, don't expect a full size wedding cake from this pan. I ended up making two of them and cutting each layer individually, frosting them all together to make a bigger cake, but it was atleast much easier with this pan! My big complaint, as other review writers have said, is that this company sends JUST this pan in the box... No instructions, no contact information. As I talked to the company that manufactures this pan, I learned that this is a mistake on Amazon's part. Upon calling I was told by their customer service department that this pan requires 1 1/2 batches of batter (1 1/2 cake mixes) and takes approx. 1 hour and 15 minutes to bake at 350 degrees. Also, make sure you grease the pan VERY well, since there is no way for you to loosen the smaller layers without ruining the cake. But other than that, this product is great and probably one of the best purchases I have ever made! My parent's cake will look FANTASTIC at their 30th Anniversary party next week!
The Girls
My 9 and 11 year old girls, fans of the Cake Boss, lobbied hard to get a "Girl Gourmet" cake maker for Christmas - as best I could tell, an overpriced glorified Easy Bake Oven with microwaveable cakes that must taste gross, along with mix your own fondant. So instead, I bit the bullet, and though being creativity impaired, got them some fondant and tools . I wanted to get a "fancy" pan for a 3 tiered cake, but didn't want to break the bank, or make huge wedding sized cakes every time they wanted to decorate. I was a little worried about how this "all in one" 3 tiered cake pan would work, but it was great. For whatever reason, it didn't come with instructions - the box from Amazon was beat up and appeared it had been opened then resealed, so perhaps something happened during shipping. But I called the company, and the lovely woman who answered gave me batter and baking directions verbally as well as faxing me a copy, and the reminder to grease the cake pan well. The girls were thrilled when I showed them the things I had gotten and we made the cake the day before Christmas Eve, and I was even more thrilled when it came out of the pan, baked to perfection, with no difficulty at all. On Christmas Eve we learned the basics of fondant together, decorated a very colorful cake, and welcomed Jesus' birthday with their very own fondant decorated 3 tiered cake on Christmas day. An adventure to remember. And having the pan work well was the start of it ...

I am a novice when it comes to cakes. I love to bake but they never turn out right. I wanted to do a tiered cake for my daughter's birthday but given my track record I really didn't want to play around with trying to stack cakes. I figured since I had to buy cake pans for the project anyway I might as well try an already tiered pan. I followed the directions in some of the other reviews, using 2 boxes of cake mix and baking at 350 degrees for 1 hour 15 minutes. I then allowed it to cool in the pan for 20 minutes before turning it out on to a plate and allowing it to cool another 3 hours before frosting (using two cans of frosting). I really like this pan and I will be using it again and again.A note about the size because it's hard to tell from the description - this is not a large wedding cake sized cake but it is not tiny cupcake either. It is a regular family sized cake, at least as big as you'd buy in a regular bakery or grocery store. It uses two boxes of cake mix (or two regular recipes worth). Judge based on that. For my family of 4 I would normally only use one box so to me this is a very large cake. The base fits perfectly on a regular large sized dinner plate. It is a perfect for a birthday cake. It is not so tall that there are issues with stability.Some tips for other cake newbies: Line the flat portions with parchment paper, then grease and flour the entire pan to prevent sticking. Two boxes of mix will make slightly more than a full pan so cut off the bottom of the cake with a bread knife to have a flat surface. Use a flat cake plate or other flat surface if possible, I used a regular dinner plate and the edges of my cake sloped up because of the edge of the plate. I corrected that by putting extra frosting into the dip. Do a crumb coat of frosting first - this is like a coat of primer before painting. It traps all the crumbs so they don't get in your final layer of frosting. Fill in any gaps or imperfections with frosting and use a wet finger to smooth out any lumps. Finally, decorations can be done by putting extra frosting in a large ziploc bag with the tip cut off. I didn't have any metal pastry tips so I didn't use one.
