Baking Pans for Phoenix Bakers
Open Mon–Fri 10 AM–5 PM · Sat 10 AM–3 PM · 2853 E Indian School Rd, Phoenix.
Specialty Baking Pans and Bakeware for Every Project.
ABC Cake Decorating Supplies is a family-owned cake and baking supply store at 2853 E Indian School Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85016, serving home bakers and hobbyists across the Greater Phoenix metro area since 1965.
Specialty baking pans and bakeware cover a lot of ground. There's the round, square, springform, bundt, and sheet pans that every home baker reaches for — and then there are the novelty shapes and professional-gauge options that grocery and department stores simply don't carry. A 6-inch round professional-gauge pan holds its shape through repeated use; a novelty character pan lets a child's party cake become the decoration itself. Customers often arrive knowing what they want to make but not quite sure which pan will get them there, and that's exactly where in-store staff guidance makes the difference.
In-store selection beats ordering blind online in ways that matter. Pan depth, material gauge, and non-stick coating quality are things you can assess in person — and choosing the wrong size for a tiered cake can make the whole structure unstable. Every product in our store is available same-day, with no shipping wait and no guesswork. Pick it up, ask a question, and walk out with exactly what your project needs.

Common Questions About Baking Pans in Phoenix.
These are the questions we hear most often at the counter. The answers below are straight from our staff — no fluff, just what you actually need to know before you buy.
What size baking pan do I need for a tiered wedding cake?
For a classic three-tier wedding cake, the most common pan combination is 6-inch, 9-inch, and 12-inch rounds, each baked in at least two layers. The exact size depends on your guest count and tier height — staff at ABC Cake Decorating Supplies can help you calculate the right combination before you buy.
What is the difference between professional-gauge and standard baking pans?
Professional-gauge pans are made from thicker aluminum or steel, which distributes heat more evenly and prevents hot spots that cause domed or uneven layers. They also resist warping after repeated use and washing. For home bakers who bake regularly, the upgrade in results is immediate and worth the modest cost difference.
Where can I find novelty-shaped baking pans in Phoenix?
ABC Cake Decorating Supplies at 2853 E Indian School Rd in Phoenix stocks novelty and character pans in shapes that general kitchen and department stores don't carry — including numbers, animals, licensed shapes, and themed characters. Call ahead at 602-224-9796 to check current availability on specific shapes.
Do I need a different pan for a deep-dish versus standard layer cake?
Yes — depth matters. A standard 2-inch round pan works for most layer cakes, but a 3-inch deep pan is better for tall single layers and European-style tortes. Using a shallow pan for a deep-dish recipe causes overflow and uneven baking. Our staff can match the right depth to your specific recipe before you purchase.
Can I use silicone bakeware for the same results as metal pans?
Silicone bakeware works well for muffins, small cakes, and flexible-release applications but doesn't produce the same browning or structure as metal pans for layer cakes and springform applications. For most decorated celebration cakes, professional-gauge metal is the right choice. We carry both so you can choose based on your specific project.
