Reduce Your Exposure to Harmful Chemicals

Our performance comes from anodized aluminum, not from a non-stick coating layer. That means no silicone-based release coatings or fluoropolymer-based nonstick systems to manage, and no coating to chip, flake or peel into your bakes. These coatings are an added layer that can wear down over time and typically demands extra care to protect the surface.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals including microplastics known as “forever chemicals”. These substances do not break down easily in human bodies, water, or nature, which means they can accumulate over time and pose potential health risks. Unfortunately, many non-stick bakeware coatings contain PFAS, PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), and PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid), which can leach into your food when exposed to high heat. No one wants toxic plastics leaching into your food or the environment because of lesser bakeware.

If you prefer a pan with no added release layer at all, anodized aluminum keeps the performance in the metal. Fat Daddio’s anodized bakeware contains no extra metals, chemical additives, dyes, PFAS, PTFE’s or PFOA’s.

Do you need to use sprays to prep anodized aluminum pans?

Not always. Many bakers use butter, oil, parchment, or a light dusting of flour depending on the recipe.

Why should I choose anodized aluminum?

It is a single material baking solution made without PFAS-based nonstick coatings, it is that simple. It is designed to last and perform the same after every use.

Bake with confidence, bake with Fat Daddio’s anodized aluminum bakeware.
