Can I Make Angel Food Cake in a Mini Fluted Stoneware?

SUMMARY

Angel food cake requires a specific baking environment to achieve its signature lightness, necessitating an ungreased pan with straight sides. Using a mini fluted stoneware pan may hinder the cake's volume and make it difficult to remove after baking. The discussion highlights that while a fat-free vanilla cake could work well in the mini fluted pan, it will not replicate the qualities of traditional angel food cake. Users are encouraged to consider the unique requirements of angel food cake before attempting to bake it in unconventional pans.

Does anyone know if you can make angel food cake in the mini fluted stoneware that is on the outlet...I can't find anything about it.

Thanks,
 
The thing with angel food is that it has to be in an ungreased pan with straight sides to get the volume it needs, and that is why they have the special pans for it. If it is done in a regular cake pan it won't be nearly as light. Plus, it has to be inverted when it cools. Its pretty tricky. I can try it in my mini fluted and let you know, though I doubt it will be what you expect and It would be pretty hard to get them out. Are you just wanting a fat free cake or is it specifically angel food. If you did a fat free vanilla regular cake it would be great in the mini fluted...
