Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kaiser Bakeware Classic Donut Pan
Customer Review: A treasure found!
Summary: 5 Stars
Although a little more than I would like to have spent on a baking pan, I love it! I ordered two since we have a large family and wanted to cook up multiples at a time. Finding a recipe required a bit of work, but we settled on our favorite things in the donut pan are our tried and true banana bread and pumpkin bread recipes with chocolate chips in them. We pipe the batter in with a bag with the corner cut out (or a tupperware frosting decorator ball thing minus the tips from a friend works super!) The donuts are so much more fun than the muffins we were making previously and great for kids' hands and superb baked gifts for friends. We get rave reviews from all who try it. It was definitely worth the purchase and the wait for them to arrive from backorder.Customer Review: Very disappointing

The recipe that came with the pans is not easy to follow, since the measurements were in grams. I did not have a quick conversion chart. The so called "donuts" did not brown on the top when I followed the temperature and time directions. I tried to bake donuts again using a recipe from allrecipes.com and found the the so called donuts tasted more like muffins with a hole in the middle. I also bought the mini pan at the same time I bought the classic pan and had the same experience. The handling and care of both the classic donut pan and the mini pan takes more effort than I want to devote to keeping the "donuts" from sticking in future uses. There will be not future use because these pans will be in my next garage sale.Customer Review: WHAT IS THIS STUFF?
Summary: 1 Stars
I just received my donut pan from Amazon in 4 business days despite having chosen Free Super Saver Shipping. I love Amazon, but my opinion of this pan is so far very unfavorable. It came with a card board label attached to it with some kind of tar-like substance that I have never come across before. I can't even get it off with Goo Gone. The instructions and recipe that is advertised to come with the pan was completely torn off because the sticky stuff was placed exactly on the English version. I am tempted to pack this up and send it back without even making donuts because I don't know how I'm going to get this stuff off the pan. If I figure out a way and use the pan, I will update my review.Customer Review: Great pan makes great donuts
Summary: 5 Stars
I had never seen a pan to make baked lower fat donuts before so thought I would give it a try. Well, the pan is a nice weight, the non-stick surface works perfectly, and the donuts came out so tender and melt in your mouth. The recipe that comes with the pan is in European measurements, but I found a recipe on the internet and used it. The donuts baked evenly and actually fell out of the pan when I turned it over after taking out of the oven. My whole family could not believe these perfect little donuts. They are on the small side, but are just the right size for a snack or after dinner. I will definitely be using this pan over and over again.Customer Review: great pan, need a recipe
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very sturdy, well made pan. The doughnuts popped out effortlessly with just a thin coating of crisco shortening. One thing I really like is, each doughnut is approx. 3" in diameter -- good portion control (unless you eat two....) I would have given it 5 stars if it came with a recipe I could use --- the Kaiser recipe is in metric measurements, and includes ingredients that I am unsure of (soft curd cheese?). I tried a recipe I found online, and it was just OK, nothing to rave about. But that is no fault of the pan! When I find a great recipe, this pan will get a real workout in my house.
