Mrs. Anderson's Baking 12-Cup Madeleine Pan, Carbon Steel with Non-Stick Coating, PFOA Free, 15.75-Inches x 8-Inches

Heavy. Sturdy. Made great Madeleines. Had no problem with sticking. Recommend.

My first attempt at madeleines was less than stellar, bur the pan was great

If you want to make actual French Madeleines, these are the pans for you at a reasonable cost. Does not over brown like non stick pans. The pans work perfectly. Brush the molds with Beurre du Commercy, a mixture of 2 tbs melted butter and a tbs of Flour wiping away any pooled butter. This will allow the Madeleine's to release from the molds by turning upside down and rapping on the counter. The pans went through the dishwasher without problems. Also, a hint. Use the Julia Child recipe, real pure vanilla extract, and fresh orange or lemon zest to avoid making those horrid fakes sold commercially.

I gave this item to a client of mine who loves to bake in the hopes of being on the receiving end of the final product, and boy was I! When I told her how amazing the cookies were, how the edges were the perfect amount of crunch, and the middles the perfect amount of chewy, she said that she thought so, too, and she said she thought that it had to do with the pan, as well as the recipe, of course. But she'd used this recipe before and didn't get the same product, so it must be the pan, especially because she agreed that the edges of the cookies were the perfect amount of crunch, and the middles the perfect amount of chewy. So there you have it! A FIVE STAR review! Yay!

The only reason I'm giving this a 4 is because the actual size is misrepresented in the specs. The actual pan is very nice. Wish I could have used it. It is too big for my little oven. Know that the pan is almost 16'" long.

Makes madeleines very well. It is non-stick as advertised. I've used it many times, washed it in the dishwasher and it still looks like new.A basic madeleine recipe (I recommend the Joy of Baking recipe) makes 2 dozen cookies, so buy 2 of these.

The plate made great Madeleines. I used chilled butter and flour to coat the pan. They came out great.The problem I had was when I washed it in the dishwasher my lemi-shine cleaner destroyed the tin plate finish. I had to throw out the pan. Going to buy an anodized aluminum pan next.

I would recommend this particular madeleine pan, as a matter of fact, I purchased two of them. A normal batch size recipe makes an amount of batter which fills two pans such as this. Careful following of the better recipes call for the tins to be lightly buttered and floured then chilled in your refrigerator along with the batter for a couple hours prior to bringing them together and baking for the prescribed few minutes. Not only do the manufacturer's pans bake to perfection, but are extremely easy to clean.
