An inspirational American sucess story, Nordic Ware was founded in 1946 by a determined wife, Dotty, and her resourceful husband Dave, newly back from the second world war. With only $500 in their pockets, a few good ideas, and a desire to create a business of their own, a humble kitchenware company was launched from the basement of their home in Minneapolis, Minnesota
- Made from cast aluminium
- Measures 26cm x 15cm x 7.5cm
- Capacity : 6 Cups / 1.4 Litres
Use and Care
- Before initial use and after each use, hand wash with warm soapy water - NEVER place in the dishwasher
- Before each use, brush with solid vegetable shortening and dust with flour or cocoa - DO NOT use regular cooking spray
- Do not use metal utensils, scourers or abrasive cleaners
- Always use a recipe intended for a Bundt pan - packet mixes don't work well in these pans because they contain a lot of leavening and turn out light and fluffy, whereas recipes for Bundt cakes that include ingredients like sour cream, butter, yoghurt etc have better results
- Do not overfill the Bundt pan - no more than 3/4 full to avoid overflow
- Bake on a middle shelf of the oven, not the top or bottom. The typical Bundt cooking temperateure is 160-175C for about 50-60 minutes
- Once removed from the oven, allow the cake to cool for 7-10 minutes before removing - trying to remove the cake from the Bundt pan before hand may cause the cake to tear and / or crumble
- DO NOT run knives or sharp implements around the edge of the tin to try and remove the cake - instead, try flipping over the cake after 10 minutes and if it does not easily come out, use a silicone spatula or similar to try and remove it
