Beautiful vintage aluminum tube pan by Wear Ever 10" x 4" Quality made so much better than today to last a lifetime.What Is A Tube Pan? Most tube pans have straight sides and an uncoated finish. While you can make Bundts, coffee cakes, and similar cakes in a tube pan, this shape and type of pan is ideal for cakes with a light and airy crumb like angel food or chiffon cakes. They are often called "angel food pans" for this reason. Angel food cake recipes don't typically contain leaveners; the air whipped into the egg white-based batter is what makes them so lofty. Because of this, you will need a straight-sided pan that's uncoated (and ungreased) so that the batter can cling to the sides of the pan as it expands, helping it rise up tall. Once the cake is out of the oven, invert the pan, and let it cool upside down. This is why tube pans often have removable bottoms and "feet"—they prevent the delicate cake from collapsing and make it much easier to remove the cake from the pan after it cools.
