I cook. I cook a lot. I enjoy cooking and baking and experimenting with new recipes. And as such, it is hard for me to pass a sale on an interesting piece of bakeware when I see a large percentage markdown. At the very least I will examine the item to see if it is worth the cost of trying out.

A few weeks ago I saw a good sale on some Baker's Secret Precisionware. My eyes were drawn to Baker's Secret Precisionware Cookie Pans. This was a sale I couldn't pass up when I saw the baking pan looked so sturdy.

The Baker's Secret Precisionware Cookie Pans have cookie targets and fill line portions, which are designed to help you evenly drip your cookies on to the pan or create a uniform sized cookie based on the various circle sizes. I don't like targets and patterns, however I could see this feature being beneficial for children who bake or adults who like to be shown exactly where to place the cookies.

The Baker's Secret Precisionware Cookie Pans were of a professional weight and felt sturdy. I was particularly drawn to the wide edges of the pan, which meant they could be grabbed easily with oven mitts, without having to touch the inside of the pan where the cookies were baked. That was a plus in the design.

The Baker's Secret Precisionware Cookie Pans also were non-stick and the package said it provided even cooking results and effortless cleanup. Naturally I was drawn to that. It also said it was dishwasher safe and that a metal spatula could be used safely. I was drawn to the statement of "Metal Spatula Safe non-stick coating", because generally metal spatulas can damage the non-stick coating of pans, but metal spatulas work so much better at removing cookies without breaking them, than nylon spatulas.

So, the style, the description and the price were right. I bought 2 pans because if I am going to bake a batch of cookies then I will likely need 2 pans and I would like them to be of equal size and type to go in the oven at the same time.

These medium sized Baker's Secret Precisionware Cookie Pans measured 15 by 10 inches. I loved the size.

Takeaways
  • These pans have cookie targets and fill line portions
  • The pan had wide edges which made for easy grabbing with mitts.
  • I would not buy Precisionware again because it was hard to clean.

For years I've been buying and using Baker's Secret pans, but I've noticed a diminishing quality to their products. I've incurred problems with scratching and rust, even though I've never used metal on the pans. Discoloration is also a problem. I hope the company returns to their previous quality products, but in the meantime, I will be purchasing bakeware from another company.
