Pantastic!

I didn’t bake anything this weekend. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. I think I was still in vacation mode or something. So I guess this is as good a time as any to close out the “Where I Shop” series. This is part 3: PANS! And Cake Art Party Store has a ton of them.

I love this store.

PANS

The cake pan aisle just makes me smile, despite it’s overwhelmingly gray disposition. It just makes me happy. I like to think about all the talented people that walk through here in need of the perfect cake pan and the things they create with them. Take all these graduated cake pan sets for instance… I’m in awe of what serious bakers and wedding cake decorators can do with them.

But layer cake pans aren’t the only kind of pan Cake Art carries.

Loaf Pans

There are loaf pans…

Bread Pans

… not to be confused with bread pans.

Bundt Pans

Bundt-style pans in various designs.

Angel Food Cake Pans

Angel food cake pans.

Tartlet Pans

Tartlet pans. (Fat Daddio’s… they even have a cute name.)

Doughnut Pans

Doughnut pans. I should get one of these for the next time I try dougnuts.

Square Muffin Pans

How about some square pans. Or… regular, mini and jumbo-size muffin pans.

Small Graduated Pans

But, when it comes to cake pans, I love these little graduated ones that you can hold in one hand.

Graduated Pans

And, then there’s these. These are much, much bigger. I don’t know how big they actually go, but I’ve seen some as big as 18 inches wide and 3 and 4 inches deep. That is a serious cake. I think my oven would be scared.

Heart Pans

But, the graduated sets aren’t all round. There are heart pans, hexagon pans, square pans, and oval pans… all available in different sizes.

Teddy Bear Pans

But maybe you just want one pan. How about a sweet teddy bear? In pink, though.

Shaped Pans

What about a butterfly? Care Bear? Spiderman?

Ice Cream Cone Pan

Or maybe you want individual ice cream-shaped cupcake pans. Too cute!

Mini Pans

Or maybe you want a collection of itty-bitty, teeny-weeny, baby-size pans. I want one of each myself. For scale, that’s a container of sprinkles on the left. These ARE cuteness!

Cookie Sheet Pans

What?!?! You don’t want any cake pans? Well, they also have cookie sheet pans. So there.

Number Pan

And, if that weren’t enough, they have pans that try to tempt me to buy them – even though I would probably never use them. This one has blocks you can move around to let you make numbers and letters. I’ve seen it in a large size, but not one this tiny. Again, CUTENESS! I hate this store.

If that’s not enough, they have even more pans.
And, now for some fun.

It’s a Pick a Pan Giveaway!
  • Enter for a chance to win the pan of your choice.
  • Just leave a comment on this post and pick out the kind of pan you want from any of the above. That’s right. You get to pick. Need some jumbo-size muffin pans? Want to try out a set of graduated pans? Hearts? Hexagons? Or maybe you just need some plain old cupcake pans. I know, you really want an assortment of teeny-tiny pans.
  • Well, if you win, I’ll get it for you, or as many as I can get for you with a $50 bill. Sound like fun?
  • Leave your comment with a way for me to contact you if you win (either a blog link or email)
  • Deadline to enter is Tuesday, July 14th at 5 p.m. TIME’S UP! WINNER ANNOUNCED BELOW. (recorded by the time stamp of your comment) The winner will be announced sometime Tuesday evening on this post.

* One winner will be chosen using the Random.org integer generator.

Good luck!

Man… you guys like pans! I didn’t think this giveaway would be that fun because it was so, well, so gray. But, I’m glad you had fun entering. Now for the winner…


Congrats Melissa! You’re definitely getting a set of graduated pans. YAY! And I’ll try to throw in a square muffin pan for you, too. I’ll see how far $50 goes.

  1. I really love that store! It would be where I spend my few moments of Mommy time when I get them.

    I would love a springform pan since mine got lost somewhere in one of my many moves. A set of graduated pans would be nice too!

  2. I think I'd be in trouble in that store.

  3. You are so lucky to live close to a store with such a great selection! Or maybe it's dangerous?

    For me it's a toss-up between the deep dish tart pan and the tiny pans just because they're so darn cute!

  4. I would love the number pan (the last picture) and/or a set of diamond graduated pans. I don't know if they have them there but I saw them at Michaels this weekend!

  5. That shop is awesome! I wish I could find a store like this in Singapore! I would love to have the ice cream-shaped cupcake pans!
    Thanks a lot! (;

    replayplease-@hotmail.com

  6. I forgot how fun it is to walk down the aisles of stores with all these goodies. Our local store closed last year. My first pick would be a new bundt pan (mine sticks so I never use it). Thanks for the tour!

  7. Oh so many cake pans!!! Too cute :) I really liked the square pans and graduated pans.
    Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas, I really enjoy them.
    Thanks for the opportunity!

  8. Love, love LOVE the itty bitty pans. You know what I need though? Bundt pans. Silly me never thought to register for any when I got married 7 years ago. And they're pricey! I've got my MIL searching the thrift shops in the area for one.
    I had to borrow a friends bundt (why does that sound funny?!) to make monkey bread this past weekend.
    I love the fancy designs the bundt pans have now too. They look like castles!
    rebeccalynnsmith @ gmail.com

  9. Pantastic is right! Wow. I have never seen so many pans all in one spot before! I think my favorite pan was the one that had a bunch of small squares in it. No the one to make numbers and letters. The other one. :) That, or the tiny pans shown next to the sprinkles!! I'd make lots of little cakes and bring them into work to share their cuteness. :)

  10. Oh how fun! I would TOTALLY love to spend $50 at this store. I love the cupcake ice cream cone thing, and the stacking circle pans!! How fun!

  11. I would love the teeny baby sized pans so I can finally try out petit fours…right? or whatever else- I'm easy to please

  12. How to choose!
    I need a serious upgrade on my loaf pans, and I would love to play around with the sizes. Give me one of each and I'm a happy camper–er, baker.

  13. I love the posts about the baking store. The variety of pans is overwhelming. I would like the teddy bear pan (I'm doing a teddy bear tea party in January!) or the heart shaped pans. Thanks for the chance to win! Lynnosborne [at]verizon[dot] com

  14. Oh my, which to choose, which to choose? I really need a new spring form pan for my cheese cake. The last time I baked one the crust started leaking butter and smoked out my oven. When I was ready to bake my ricotta cheesecake it ended up tasting like smoke! I also LOVE the graduated ones. Never seem to have the correct size for a recipe. This would be an extremely hard choice to make. :)

  15. So many cake pans, so overwhelming! I love your blog. Although I'm not much of a cook, I do like to bake. My favorite cake pan is the one with the moveable boxes used for making numbers.
    Pauline

  16. So cute! I would love to try out the little tiny cake pans :)

  17. Jennifer Pollan – I would choose the ice cream cupcake pan or the blocks for numbers. Those both look like tons of fun!

    P.S. Congratulations for being mentioned in Cookie magazine, thats fantastic!!!

  18. I'm a bread maker and would LOVE to try out the bread pans! And how much fun is the ice cream cone pan! Thanks!

  19. I am now desperately wishing I had one of those stores near me! The ice cream cone pan would get TONS of use at my house :)

  20. I would definitely want a dinosaur shaped pan! Then various cupcakes sizes. I love cupcakes.

  21. I love the pan aisle it is one of my favorite. I so could use the sqare muffin pan that would be fun or even the mini pans. I have to bake eveything from scratch for my daughter using special ingredients so this would be fun to give her a little variety of things. Thank You for the chance to win. Love Your Blog.

  22. I would some of the tiny pans. They're just too cute!

  23. I'd love a mini muffin pan!

  24. wow, i am still in shock at how awesome that store is!!! those ice cream cupcake pans are too cool!!! and the square muffin pans! i don't think i've ever seen those before!!

  25. Let me just say I have really enjoyed the virtual tour through the Cake Art party store. Fun!

    I would love to win an assortment of small pans. My daughter will be turning 5 early next year, and it would be so fun to make an individual – and different shape – cake for each guest. Thanks!

  26. I would love a collection of the teeny tiny eeny weeny pans. Some part of my mind thinks cakes in those pans would have fewer calories.
    Thanks for the opportunity to win!!! Billie

  27. I need a mini muffin pan. Is that a possibility?

  28. I'd love to have that last one, the itty bitty one where you can move the squares around to make numbers.

    Or the ice cream ones … hard to decide!

    Okay, I'll stick with the number one since I make all the birthday cakes in our house.

    Thanks for sharing, and making me want to make a cake. And I will – it's my youngest first birthday … today! My 5 and 3 year olds will help.

    Have a great day,

    Cindy

  29. This shop is brilliant and it's probably good that I can't get there because my salary would go poof!

    I'd probably choose some of the mini pans, because they look nicer and it's easier to selfishly hide a bit of the cake when you're not cutting from a big, round cake ^_^

  30. I just found your site recently and am now addicted! Who knew there were so many cake pans that could be sold in one store! Pick me, pick me… for the ice cream cone pan or the donuts pan.

  31. How in the world does a person go in that store and not come out broke but loaded down with pans of all shapes and sizes? I would love an assortment of the teen-tiny pans. My husband loves to bake with our granddaughters and with these, they could take cakes home to their families. =D

  32. I wonder if I could get them all?

    I need an 8" square pan.

    Or some of those mini ones.

    Tartlets would be good.

    Oh…goodness. It is hard to choose.

  33. I love those little ice cream cone cup cake pans (can you tell I have a 3 year old?) These pans are all great; reminds me of when I got my Madeline pan… and I make Madeline's often enough to not regret the indulgence!

  34. What a great giveaway! I myself would love to try out the ice cream-shaped cupcake pan!

  35. So many choices! I think first I'd pick 2 bread pans, then some cake pans (graduated, perhaps?), then a muffin tin. What an amazing store!

  36. Wow, hope fun to shop there. I would love some of the mini pans. My kids would love having their own personal cakes.

    –Stacy

  37. That is a lot of pans, and I could sure use a bundt cake pan and maybe those great square ones.

  38. Love ALL cake pans!!!! Can't resist the bundt, graduated and really any of them! Would love a set of graduated ones or maybe a bundt!

  39. There are so many pans I would like. However, my first choice I think would be a set of mini-loaf pans.

    My husband would so not understand why I think that aisle is so great!

  40. MMMM – a pretty bundt pan would be nice. I just threw away my old one – it was over 30 years old, scratched, dented and just yucky!

  41. OH, OH, OH! I don't even know what I'd pick! I just love pans! =:D You're so generous! =:) Maybe I would want a tart pan, don't have one and never tried making one before! =;) Oh, so many choices! Anyway, thank you for entering me! I can't wait to see who wins!

    Blessings!
    ~Miss Rachel P.~

  42. Sorry for the double post! I accidentally published it anonymously and well, that just won't do if I'm actually trying to win something!

    I think I would want a couple pairs of cake pans – rounds & squares, just so I could make some layer cakes. It's been forever (like 11+ years since I lived at home) that I had all the baking tools I could ever want and I miss them! Or maybe a bundt pan? A cheesecake pan? Who knows? It's all wonderful!

    Thanks Bakerella!

  43. wow wow wow! i don't think i have ever seen so many cake pans! i think i would pick the spiderman one, or something like that as i have two little nephews who would adore a spiderman cake!!!

  44. I think I would want a couple pairs of cake pans – rounds & squares, just so I could make some layer cakes.

  45. For whatever reason, I really love the square muffin tin! That and the itty bitty bundt cake pan just got my imagination rolling!

  46. Oh be still my heart ^__________^

    One of each please!!!! haahhaha just kidding! I do need a bundt pan, Tart Pan, Some baking cookie sheets, and anything else fun :) I'm not very picky hahahah

  47. I like the ice cream cake cupcake pan, with that store near home ill be bankruptcy,thanks for the giving
    Amalia

  48. Ohhhh….that store looks dangerous to my budget. I would love to have a store like that in my area. I could use some regular cupcake pans, my old ones are just that…old.

    Sandy (spitsukr01@yahoo.com)

  49. hmmmm!! That's a tough one, I love them all. I can make something with all of them. Since I have to pick, I would go with the ice cream shaped cupcake pan as it is something unique.

  50. Hi there!

    I'd really like to have the doughnut pans, the square pans and some different-size tartlet pans.

    Thank you so much for showing us such an amazing store!

  51. Being a newbie baker coming from a family that never did much baking at all (shoot, our oven is used for storage sometimes),I can't create cakes in the shapes/sizes that I would like. I'd love to win any cake pan–anything would be really useful. But those graduated cake pans seem like they'd be easy to organize and work with!

  52. love those itty bitty baby pans!

  53. Wow, I would go crazy in that store! I would love to have one of those fancy bundt cake pans, I think they make beautiful cakes. Thanks for the generous contest!

    mommy2kai@yahoo.com

  54. No question. The graduated pans. I live in Atlanta not far from here. Can I go with you and be your new best friend??

    lindsay(dot)sprung(at)gmail.com

  55. OOH! I'd love an assortment of teeny tiny pans!

  56. Love the shop! I would definitely get the graduated pans since I think I'm up for trying a layer'd cake or maybe a fancy bundt pan? it's so difficult to choose just one!!

  57. i just can't decide. do i like the square muffin-tin pans more than the tartlets? i just don't know!

  58. I admire your self-control in not buying alllll the pans, even if you know you won't use them and even if you might not have space for them. Haven't been able to do that for myself yet! I'd love the re-arrangeable squares pan or the square muffin pan or the ice cream cone pan or…or…or….

  59. The shifting blocks pan is amazing! I always painstakingly cut numbers and shapes from regular sheet cakes. All that cake to waste … such a shame.

    aecomber@bsu.edu

  60. Ooooohhhhh – why oh why dont they have shops like this in the UK?! It looks like my ultimate wonderland, and everything is so reasonable compared to the UK too, better start saving up for the next trip to the USA ;-)
    For me though it would have to be the ice-cream shaped pan, how cute is that?! think of the possibilities….

  61. Ok, too hard to pick. I'd say the ice cream cone pan and the letter one. My daughter wants to bake cupcakes and these would be too cute.

    dukedevil0312@yahoo.com

  62. Pans, pans, pans! I REALLY need to bake some bread now. I would love a bread pan. Thank you for all the inspiration!

    Loretta_jd@live.com

  63. that Tulip Bundt pan is the most beautiful thing I have seen :)

  64. I've never seen such an assortment of pans in one place! I would like some bread pans. To think I've been using loaf pans all this time.

  65. My first thought was "I shouldn't enter, I don't *need* any pans" and my second was "are you crazy? Of course you do!"
    And I do…I need pans BAD. But would I want a pan that I *need*? Heck no! I want those itty bitty pans! Sooooo cute!

  66. Well, what I really want is a high sided round 9 inch cake pan. One that will hold that extra cup of batter that is always left over.

  67. I would really love some of those flat cookie sheets. All I have are "jelly roll" style pans. I've alwasy wanted the ones with no side.

  68. OMG I wish I lived near this store! I got looking around on the website and I would love to have the mum bundt pan and the mini tier cake pan.

    I understand why you love this store so much!!! What great things :)

  69. This store is amazing! I'd love to have that number-letter pan at the end. Oh the possibilities! Thanks for the giveaway!

  70. I definitely need a tartlet pan or a cheesecake pan. But the mini pans my kids would love.
    Thanks!!!
    gregpowell1@aol.com

  71. I would love to have store like that near me!!! I could spend all day there. But I could settle for a set of graduated pans from your store ;)!! Thanks for the opportunity!!

    forenzadriver@yahoo.com

  72. Bakerella! This really is Pantastic! I would love love love the itty-bitty cake pans. I could have a lot of fun with these! Or the graduated circular cake pans would be great too! I love all the things you do, and thanks for inspiring me to get back into the kitchen!

  73. Oh! Wow! Why don't we have such nice stores?
    I really like the mini icecream pan!

  74. I SO have to go to that store!!

    I love to make individual size desserts, so it would have to an assortment of teeny-tiny pans!

  75. Dear bakerella, you are awesome!!! I definitely would love to have:
    -square pans (minis)
    – the individual ice cream-shaped cupcake pans photo, to make numbers and letters.

    I am living nowadays in Spain so I'm not sure whether I can be in the contest.

    Thanks for the opportunity!

  76. I love the assortment of tiny baby size pans or the pan with the small squares. So cute!

  77. Wow! I would love bread pans for the holidays but those graduated pans also look like they'd be great to experiment with as well. Who knows? I'd love any pan you would recommend as a must have for someone who loves to bake but doesn't get enough time.

    Megan

  78. Love the teeny tiny pans and the square muffin pan and the ice cream cone shaped one…too, many choices!
    jo(dot)whitehurst(at)gmail(dot)com

  79. Oh wow, my mind goes into overload just thinking about the damage I would do buying pans!! I have no idea what I would do with the square pans but those are what I would love to have if Mr. Random Number picker picks me. Oh pick me, pick me!!!

  80. So cute! I REALLY want those graduated cake pans….

  81. I DO want an assortment of teeny tiny pans! SO CUTE! And my oven is so crap, it can never manage a normal size cake pan with batter in it anyhow. I'm all over teeny tiny!

    I love you Bakerella, you're so rad!

    -Kath
    thatsagoodmeatball at yahoo dot com

  82. Oh, what a store! I love baking pies and muffins to my big family. Tartlet pan or mini-muffin pan would be great! And the square muffin pan looks really fun.

  83. I wouldn't know how to choose! I could do some SERIOUS damage to the paycheck in that store….Probably a good thing I don't live anywhere near there!

  84. Wow, this is a hard choice! I think I'd just like an awesome set of standard graduated pans. I'm only working with odds and ends, and I'd like a grown up set. Not very exciting, but I'd be thrilled!

  85. :o :o :o :o

    Imagine a sweet teeth girl, 5 years old, in a sweet shop kind a Willy Wonka factory. That would be me in this pan-section shop. I want them all!!! But if I have to choose, my love is for the graduated round ones, though a pair of cookie sheets would be welcome as well.

  86. I found your site from an Aussie who was following you and I have to thank you for inspiring me to bake again for me this time and not everybody else.
    Love the tray of square pans – I love tiny & miniture.
    Thanks again for bringing back the joy to my baking.

  87. I am so jealous – love a store like that near me! My baking sheets are shameful. A new one would be great.

  88. pan pan i feel like peter PAN!!Oh my can we import this store in my teeny weeny town! I'm sure all my military man(I live on base) would love waht i could bake in these! THE TINY TINY ONE…I'llNever grow up i'll live in pixie land…ahh…

  89. hmmm I like that little pan that will let you bake cakes in number shapes. Course I would like a spring form pan, although I don't know if I'd use it or not…maybe a small muffin pan? *giggle* Hard to decide. :)

  90. Those tiny pans are the cutest thing I have seen today! (and I just visited cute overload. hah!)

  91. Teeny weenie pans definitely! I could get into real trouble with those….. Or maybe those tiny block pans? Both perfect size for treats for my grandchildren!

  92. I think I'd have to go for a collection of itty-bitty, teeny-weeny, baby-size pans!!! But, I also don't have a decent 8×8 or 9×9 square pan, so I might have to go for one of those first…

  93. Fat Daddio is my dreamboat!!! But a second close would be the graduated square/round cake pans! Love 'em all! (And love your site – I'm a first time commenter. Thanks for always keeping things creative and inspiring!)

  94. I tear when I see your Cake Art posts, Bakerella.. Here in Brazil there's only one store that sells graduated pans set, and it's ALWAYS out of stock =(

    So I'd certainly choose a set of round graduated pans, but one for domestic cakes (lol), since me and Mom aren't on the wedding bussiness just yet ;)

    We've been redesigning our apartment for a couple of months now, and a set of pans that you can store within themselves would surely help with our lack of space =)

  95. I would love a nice 9×13. I have been through so many cheap ones!

  96. Wooow !! I can stay hours and hours in that shop. A whole day I think!

    A chiffon cake pan? or a heart pan ? a cookie sheete pan (I can't find one adapted to my small oven ): ) ?

    I can't choose, and I think if you bring me there, I will buy more than these three :)

  97. cupcake pans in different sizes!!

  98. I've been following this blog for quite a while and absolutely LOVE it. I wish that store was close to me. Anyway…

    I'd love to have those 3D ice cream cup pans or anything else.. tiny ones are my fav…

    towingbiz70@tds.net

  99. What an amazing store!!!!!! I am in heaven just looking at your pictures! The store we have here is great but no where near as good as the one you shop at!!!

    I would also like to say that you are incredible and I love your cupcake pops!!!! I gave them a go with a friend and our attempt is on my blog at http://www.crystalscupcakesnz.blogspot.com

    Wish I could enter your comps!! I really want some square cupcake pans. If you do get to look at my blog you might see how I am a little addicted to cupcakes!!

    http://www.crystalscupcakesnz.blogspot.com

  100. My daughter is moving into her first condo so she "needs" those cupcake pans shaped like ice cream cones. What could be better for company? Thank you for your generous give away.
    Linda

  101. I love the number pan. I could do some cool things with it!
    sweetiee1@gmail.com

    Kim

  102. Amazing collection! I'd probably go for the graduated round cake pans and try and take my cake baking to the next level.

  103. These are the times I wish I lived in the States… or that Holland would be more into baking. We don't have this kind of COOOOOOOOL shop to spend time or money in. Oh well at least we have chocolate and windmills. Thanks for the great idea's. PS tried your hamburger cakes and everyone LOVED them. did not turn out as pretty as yours but I will keep trying.

    Cheers Wendy

  104. OMG! What do you even do with yourself in a store like that? I think I'd leave that store VERY poor! The local shop here has a maximum of 20 types of pans (and they do not specialize in cake decorating supplies, let me tell you). If I had to pick ONE cake pan… it'd be the mini tiered cake pan set (which is not one cake pan, but it all comes in one package).

    Thanks Bakerella!

  105. I just love that shop!!!I wish I could take a flight right now to go!!!We don´t get much choice here, and you can´t even get a nice set of graduated pans, they are not tall enough!!, that would be my choice.
    Thanks for sharing so much!!!
    dmatani@gmail.com

  106. I've seen the square muffin pan in the King Arthur catalog and haven't brought myself to buy it yet. Makes me drool every time I see it.

  107. Definintely the ice cream cone pan…so amazing! It's divine….look to be honest I'd probably settle for any cake pan in the series of photos!

  108. Fabulous store! I would have to pick the square muffin pans. I have never seen those before and now my mind is reeling with all sorts of ideas for sweet square things.

  109. I absolutely love the tiny, baby-sized ones!

    lilychang.5@gmail.com

  110. It's not fair : I'm French so I can't participate !!!!! I would have loooooved the collection of "itty-bitty, teeny-weeny, baby-size pans" (especially the angel food cake, one for me and one for my loved one) !!!!

  111. Oh, how I wish I had a store like this near me. Oh, how glad my husband is that I don't. :) I am already thinking of fun things to make with that square muffin pan!

  112. I think it would have to be the ice cream-shaped cupcake pans.

    You just don't get cute novelty pans in the UK :)

    (Melaina25@gmail.com)

  113. That store is heaven! I wish they had one in my neck of the woods! I would love the ice cream cone cupcake pan!

    Thanks!

  114. Ooooo!!! Tart pan or springform pan, please :)

  115. I would love to have a normal size cake pan and a teddy bear pan since my nieces birthday is coming up. I like the mini hearts pans to :).

    PS. I love your blog!

  116. Graduated round pans! I love your blog; I made the hamburger cupcakes for the fourth!
    (shannonasaurus@gmail.com)

  117. cookie sheets for me please!t

  118. Awesome store! I would pick the care Bears pan for my twin girls 4th Birthday in Sept. I'm making a cake for each of them this year and I've already bought a Strawberry Shortcake pan. Unless they have a My Little Pony?

  119. I just started baking cakes semi-professionally, so I would really love a new set of graduated-circular or square pans! Or the square cupcake pans! I always liked the crusty edge of my cupcakes. Square molds mean more crust!

  120. OH MY STARS!!! It's a good thing I don't live there!! LOL!!!! I love the pans!! I would love to try the mini squares and the mini-one-that-looks-like-an-angel-food-cake, and the doughnut pan, and on, and on, and on…… :) Fabulous post and what a treat of a giveaway!! Thanks for the tour!

  121. That store is awesome!
    I have no idea what I would pick…

  122. Oh my, that looks like baking heaven… I would just love the itty bitty baking pans, they're too cute, and you could spend hours decorating them… or the graduated cake pans, those would be so unbelievably useful.

  123. I am always so jealous when you do posts about where you shop. What I wouldn't give to have such a fabulous store here! We are stationed overseas right now and it was a struggle just to find lollipop sticks! I love the square muffin pan. I can just imagine a bunch of adorable tiny cakes.

  124. How do you decide?
    I love the small graduated round cake pans…
    but I am sure my son would want some kind of jungle animal pan or…
    my husband loves the jumbo cupcakes I make…hmmm

  125. I would really want those Wilton Ice Cream shaped ones! They are so cute. You're very lucky to have such a comprehensive shop near you. We have no such thing here in Western Australia!

  136. I nearly died when I finally visited Cake Art; the place is HEAVEN! If my comment is the lucky winner, I'd love to rock some graduated cake pans, any shape.

  137. It looks like heaven!! :) I liked the square pan you posted after the donut pan! I can find anything like that here.

    I'm writing you from the Netherlands!! I visit your blog often, I like it very much.

  138. Oh my gosh this store is amazing! I would love the letter making one! or the small graduated pan sets. How cute would mini layer cakes be?!

  139. Oh my goodness – I don't think we have that many pans in all of Australia! I have serious pan envy : ) The itty bitty ones are to die for!

  140. Oh my, so many pans, How could you choose!
    I love the idea of the number/letter pan or the flower bundt tin!

  141. I would love some pans. Itty bitty please!

  142. Oh how I would love to go into this store with a full wallet :-) I would have an absolute blast!! Well maybe it's better this way, not living close to the Cake Art store. I would however love to get the petal graduated pans, I think they make such nice cake designs!

  143. I have never seen the customizable number pan – that's really amazing. Do your baking skills come with the pans?

  144. Oh my word…. I'd be in cake pan heaven! I love the ice cream cone cupcake pan. I had never seen that one before. Too cute.

  145. I didn't know shops like this even existed ~ in my regional town we have nothing like this. Wow. The ice cream cone pan has such a great novelty factor but I would love some graduated pans to play with.

  146. I was just looking at pans today! Living overseas on a tiny island does not give you many options! I would love to have a set of graduated pans – either round or square! I am having my first attempt at fondant tonight – hopefully it goes well! And the more pans means the more cakes I can try!

  149. I don't think such a shop even exists where I am! I would love that ice-cream shaped cupcake pan or the graduated cake pans!Lovely

  151. I would love the mini ones any kind. Anything mini is great!

  152. Haha that place is crazy! I can feel my OCD loving every bit of it!!

  153. First time commenter, but I would love to win! But I wouldn't even be able to choose! Anything you can fit in a flat rate box ;)! So probably the teeny tiny pans! I love your blog and getting inspiration from it!

  154. Wow, not sure that this will be open to me, cause I'm from New Zealand, but I'd love a tart pan, or some bread pans, or the cupcake cone pan!!

  155. If only we have a store like that near here I'd spend all my time there. School's not that important anyway :))

    I'd want graduated round cake pans or muffin pans or those baby pans. Oh and those cookie sheets too!

    LOL. I'm so greedy.

  156. I made my first from scratch cake this month, and it was so fun…I would love a set of graduated pans….it is my goal to stop serving my cakes in the pan.

  157. wow… i love this store!!! i wish i could find a store like this in Spain… or not!! my bank account is much happier this way.. lol!!

  163. can I get one to catch all my drool? I could get into a lot of trouble in that store and need just about everything.

  164. I am dreaming and scheming of what I could do with a set of mini pans…Oh the possibilities!

  165. That is one amazing store. I need one by me. Well…maybe not! I would love those graduated pans. The possibilities are endless.

  166. I think my choice would be deep Hexagon Pan Set 6''/9''/12''/15'' or Springform Pan Set 8''/9''/10''/11''

  167. I would have to choose the itty bitty assortment of pans. What fun.
    jclowry@shaw.ca

  168. Oh how fun!! I love that square muffin looking pan! That would be so fun to make little mini loaves! I also like the itty bitty pans, very cute!

  169. I know I would pick the miniature pans, especially the heart pans. They'd be perfect for Valentine's day! Plus, I'm not really much of a cake person. I like a bite or two, which is why cupcakes are perfect. But with the mini pans, I could make a mini layer cake! Or one for each guest! How cute!

  170. If I am drawn, I would love the ice-cream cone shaped cake pans or the medium size square muffin pans. The selection you have over there is absolutely amazing. We have nothing that matches your selection here in South Africa.

    Thanks for the chance to win.

  171. I'm in! How many of those graduated pans can you get for $50?

  172. Holy moley! I'd love that square pan you held up. As well as a regular muffin tin, a mini-muffin tin, and a cookie sheet. Nope – can't stop at one… Just like when I eat cookies.

  173. Awesome! Pan of graduated roundness and/or alphabets would be positively great!

  174. Hmmm hard choices. I like the idea of the graduated pans, and the donut pan(hmmmm…donuts..). I thought the pan witht he small squares would be fun to make individual cakes would be fun too! Of course then I would need a good cake recipe to go with it. Well I am in the right place for that.

    Here's Hoping!

  175. After just under ten years of marriage, I'm definitely looking to update my existing collection of rusty sadness. I like the idea of the little number cake, but I think I am in terrible need of a springform pan

  176. I would love the itty bitty pans! They are soo cute! Just enough to eat…

  177. pans, pans, and more pans!! i cant get enough. I dont have many pans & most pans dont fit my small oven.So would love to have the assortment of teeny tiny pans. They would forsure fit in my oven!! If not those, the square muffin pan. I love making muffins for my neighbors, friends, and family!!!!

  178. This post makes me drool on my keyboard. And what a cool giveaway! Thanks so much for the chance to win.

    I'm looking for some long skinny bread pans, sort of like pullman loaves. Something like 2 x 2 x 14. I've got some plans for those pans. :O)

  179. that looks like heaven!! i wud love a springform pan! or even a doughnut tray. or.. i cud go on :D

  180. OMG! I am so jealous of your store! Makes my teeny tiny local shop look even more teeny tiny! I think I would go for a set of graduated square pans! I have been trying my hand at the round and I am itching to do some squares and work fondant with it! :) Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  181. I love love love the ice cream cone pan and the letter one!

  182. I would love to experiment with the graduated pans! Or the mini pans… let's face it… any pans would be wonderful! :)

  183. My kitchen would be 100000 time happier with a nice set of graduated pans in any shape! I could send my baking potential through the roof!

  184. That's very generous of you hon!!
    I love that store!!!

  185. oh. my. god.
    i love the tiny baby pans, but I also love those butterfly pans and those heart pans. I think if there was an isle like that, I would buy a whole bunch of pans. =]

  186. I like the teeny tiny ones!

  187. I would love, love, LOVE square graduated pans – i've been wanting to buy a "fat daddio" pan. =)
    Thanks for doing this!! Wish I could visit the store in person. I would probably stay all day…

  188. Oh my….there's too much goodness there. My first choice would be the pan that lets you make letters, and then a super cool bundt pan. I've always wanted one of those.

  189. Oooo, what a generous thing to do! That ice cream cone pan is just too cute!! I can just see all those cupcakes decorated like ice cream cones now!!

  190. Holy pancakes! I love the pan store!! The regular 9×13 and 9×9 pans are what I'd pick. I am not sure where mine ended up….and I haven't been lucky enough to snatch one up from any parties this summer, so I'm not baking cakes again until a pan shows up in my house! And maybe one of those cute shaped pans…I know, I'm greedy!

  191. I think I could live in this store. Sigh.

    I would love a tart pan, the kind with a removable collar. Le sigh.

    Barring that, the one where you can arrange the boxes to make numbers and letters is pretty darn cool, too.

  192. Oooh I like the graduated round pans…but also, the one with the blocks to move around is way cute, too! Ahh…

  193. Ahh, this is great. I'd love either the teeny tiny cake pans…or the graduated ones. Thank you!

  194. i love that ice cream cone shaped pan! that look very cool and fun to use!

  195. Loving that square muffin pan. Oh the possibilities!

  196. I'm drooling and there wasn't even any food in this post! I've been lusting after a tart pan. I've been thinking about a normal size, but of course now I need a mini heart one too! I'm so jealous that you live near a store like that :) Thanks for the opportunity!

  197. Omg, I want to buy pans now!! I really need cake pans, a spring form pan, a bunt pan, and who can resist those teeny tiny pans?! I just like different pans… I can't choose!!

  198. I like you are drawn to all the tiny cuteness..I admire how quickly you realized you would probably never use them. I am working on my own reaction time. Your photos are great and are inspiring me to use different angles when I am taking pictures. I am interested in what the reactions is when people see you pull your camera out and start setting up your shots. Please share.

  199. i would love to have fun with an assortment of itty bitty teeny weeny baby size pans! second choice would be the cake pans that you like.

  200. Wow – I think that I would die of happiness in the pan aisle! I definately would pick out a cheesecake pan – because I don't have one and really feel like this is the year I am going to make pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving!
