A timeless baking companion for tea-time rituals

Rediscover the charm of an afternoon break with Nordic Ware’s Cast Aluminum English Shortbread Pan. Designed to transform simple dough into intricate, patterned cookies, this pan invites you to savor the sensory moments of baking—fragrant butter, crisp edges, and the satisfying crack of cleanly released shapes. The pan’s sturdy build and thoughtful details support a smooth, enjoyable baking experience from start to finish.

Pattern, size, and performance

The pan features a 9-by-9-inch patterned base housed inside a roomy 9.3-by-10.6-by-1.5-inch form. A repeating rope-edge frames the base, while nine detailed shapes—ranging from a cherry cluster to a delicate butterfly—transfer to the shortbread as it bakes. The extra-deep design also accommodates richer batters for brownies, cakes, breads, and other molded desserts, expanding your baking possibilities without needing more equipment.

• Heavy cast aluminum delivers fast heating and even browning across the surface.
• Nonstick coating enables easy release and quick cleanup, saving time in the kitchen.
• Smooth, rounded handles provide a secure grip for safe transfer from oven to rack.

Real-life use and care

For best results, brush the pan with solid vegetable shortening and dust with flour before filling with batter or dough. This hints at clean release of the patterned pieces while helping preserve the surface. After baking, wash by hand with warm soapy water and dry promptly.

• Oven-safe and proudly made in the USA.
• Avoid metal utensils, scouring pads, and abrasive cleaners to maintain the nonstick finish.

Whether you’re preparing a holiday batch, a relaxing afternoon treat, or a casual weekend project, this pan offers a practical way to create classic shapes with consistent results. It invites you to explore bakery-style presentation at home, without promising perfection—just the potential for delicious moments to emerge from your oven.
