Nordic Ware Skull Bite Cakelet Pan — 20-Cavity Bronze Skull Mini Cake Mold, Cast-Aluminum with PFAS-Free Silicone Nonstick

The Nordic Ware Skull Bite Cakelet pan is a durable cast-aluminum mold that bakes twenty detailed, bite-sized skull cakes with a PFAS- and PTFE-free silicone nonstick coating for easy release and cleanup.

Bring a playful, spooky touch to gatherings with a purpose-built cakelet pan from Nordic Ware. Designed to capture sharp detail and even browning, this bronze-finished pan produces 20 identical skull-shaped mini cakes or frozen treats in a single batch. Built for lasting use, it combines cast-aluminum heat performance with a premium silicone nonstick layer and is safe to use in ovens up to 400°F.

How does this pan create such crisp skull detail?

The pan is cast from aluminum, a metal that transfers heat quickly and evenly across the mold surface. That precise heat distribution helps batter set uniformly so facial creases, eye sockets and teeth hold their shape. The bronze finish and rigid construction resist warping so details stay sharp bake after bake.

• Durable cast-aluminum body for consistent heat conduction
• Detailed cavities engineered to reproduce fine skull features
• Rigid construction minimizes distortion during heating

Will cakes stick or are they easy to unmold?

Nordic Ware applies a premium silicone nonstick coating to the cavities, formulated without PFAS or PTFE. That coating promotes clean releases of delicate mini cakes and simplifies cleanup—reduce greasing and flipping. For best results, fill cavities up to three‑quarters full and allow a short cool time before inverting.

• Silicone nonstick surface frees baked shapes with minimal force
• Formulation is PFAS- and PTFE-free for safer baking surfaces
• Recommended fill level: no more than 3/4 to prevent overflow

How many treats can I bake and what size are they?

This pan produces 20 individual skull cakelets in one go, ideal for party servings, grab-and-go desserts, or portion-controlled snacks. The total pan exterior measures 12.7 x 10.9 x 1.2 inches while the entire pan holds roughly 2.5 cups of batter; individual cavity volumes will vary with recipes. Mixes and ingredient choices affect final yields—dense batters fill differently from lighter sponge batters.

• Produces 20 skull-shaped cakelets per batch
• Pan exterior: 12.7 x 10.9 x 1.2 inches; overall capacity about 2.5 cups

Is it oven-safe and where is it made?

The cakelet pan withstands oven temperatures up to 400°F, suitable for most cake and dessert recipes. It’s manufactured in the United States from domestic and imported materials and built to be an heirloom-quality kitchen piece that holds up to regular use. As with any bakeware, follow temperature limits and care guidelines to preserve the nonstick surface and finish.
