A delicious way to whip up freshly baked shortcake shells, this clever baking pan makes it simple to serve dinner guests a truly memorable dessert. The elaborate 8-3/8-by-14-1/8-by-1-3/8-inch pan creates six deceptively effortless--yet intricately detailed--basket-shaped shortcake shells per batch, making it a smart and timesaving addition to any bakeware collection. Furthermore, the shells can be filled with any number of luscious ingredients--everything from whipped cream and strawberries to custards and puddings, lemon or raspberry curd, fruit pie fillings, chocolate, and more.

Constructed of sturdy cast aluminum for fast, even heating, the pan features a nonstick finish that allows for easily removing the individual cakes without crumbling or marring their perfect shape. In addition, its smoothly rounded handles ensure steady transfer from oven to cooling rack, even when gripped with cumbersome oven mitts or potholders. For best results, brush with solid vegetable shortening and dust with flour when filling with raw batters or doughs. Made in the USA, the oven-safe baking pan should not be used with metal utensils, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners, and it cleans up easily by hand with warm, soapy water.
