Product Description
There are many reasons why you might want to bake a few mini loaves, rather than a single large one. Consider for example the fate of 2 day old banana bread languishing on the counter - if you had made four little loaves you could have frozen some for later rather than letting it get stale. Then of course there are gifting considerations. How adorable to pack a mini loaf, or two in different flavors, into a gourmet food basket?
Amazon.com Review
These Chicago Metallic mini loaf pans may be cute, but they're as tough as bakeware gets, offering the strength, durability, and reliability that professional bakers have come to expect from Chicago Metallic for more than 100 years. The palm-size pans are wonderful for holiday gift breads or easy-to-store freezer loaves to save for later.
Once available only to commercial kitchens, the pans are made of professional-weight aluminized steel, so they won't buckle or bend under intense heat and consistently provide fast and even heat distribution. Foods brown quickly and evenly--there's no need to turn the sheet midway through baking. Bakers new to aluminized steel should pay extra attention at first, since these heavy-gauge pans bakes more quickly than lighter-gauge varieties. The nonstick SilverStone surface allows cooking without butter or oil, and ensures easy cleanup of even over-browned cheese or caramelized sugar. As with all nonstick surfaces, be sure to use nonabrasive sponges and cleansers only, and choose wood, nylon, plastic, or rubber utensils to prevent damage to the coated surface. --Emily Wolf

Comment: These are great for mini bread loaves. I use them every week. Since they are a dark pan I needed to shorten my baking time a tad to not burn my bread. Other than that, they are great to use, easy to clean and the bread falls right out if you use a non-stick spray before baking.

Summary: Excellent Baking Pans 2007-01-05
Comment: I am a professional chef/baker, and love Chicago Metallic pans. They are heavy and sturdy, don't warp, clean easily, and bake evenly. These mini loaf pans worked great for baking for the holidays. Never had a problem with anything I used them for. I highly recommend these to anyone.

Summary: Much smaller than I expected 2006-07-10
Comment: The pans are high quality as is all Chicago Metallic Bakeware. My only disappointment (and this was enough for me to knock off two stars) was the very tiny size of the pans. I have used mini pans for a few years to make Christmas breads for my neighbors and friends. These are so much smaller (at least 50% smaller than the disposable mini bread pans I have been using)than what I am used to that they won't make bread of a size that I can give as a gift. The pans seem little bigger than a large muffin! I will keep and find a use for the pans but I must renew my search for mini bread pans for gift giving.

Summary: Try Wilton brand 2004-09-15
Comment: I've had these pans with the folded edges and I don't like how food gets in the crevices. I've also had the non-stick pans, and I think they over cook quick breads and cakes. I finally found Wilton aluminum pans @candyland.com. They were just what I was looking for.
