Trudeau Construction Loaf Pan Silicone Bakeware, Medium, Gray/Pink

The BEST bread pan EVER!!!
I’ve been making gluten free bread for several years. I’ve tried non stick pans (they lie), glass pans, special aluminum coated non stick wavy sided pans, and other red silicone pans. They are all garbage. This pan, is the BEST pan! Bread comes out clean, pops out like butter, and you don’t have to grease the pan. In fact, don’t grease it, it’ll make it harder to get out. I made that mistake with my first silicone muffin pans… This particular silicone pan has a nice stiff edge which helps the loaf retain it’s shape while rising, and the silicone is nice and thick which helps it not to collapse. The silicone appears to be GENUINE. Meaning it passes the pinch and twist test to check for fillers in the silicone, whereas my red pans did not pass this test. (It will turn white if fillers were used). I don’t know if getting the bread not to stick to the pan is as hard with gluten bread as it is for gluten free bread, but I would consider this pan a necessity for anyone planning to bake bread on a regular basis. It’s that amazing, and totally worth the price. High quality! Oh for you other glutards, my favorite flour blend is equal parts tapioca, millet, and brown rice, with of course 1 tap xanthan gum per cup of flour. Works great as an all purpose flour! For slightly heartier more wheat like consistency, substitute about 1/4-1/2 cup millet flour for slightly less buckwheat flour (it tends to absorb more moisture). This is my go to flour for all my baked goods so I can avoid things like potato starch and corn starch. Happy baking!!!

Attractive, Quality, Possibly not as safe
The Overview:I was initially thrilled with the Trudeau Structure Loaf Pan Silicone Bakeware, especially in the appealing White Confetti design. The silicone quality seemed top-notch, and the handles were both sturdy and aesthetically pleasing. But due to concerns with phthalates had to return it.The Good:Design and Quality: The silicone used felt of high quality, and the pan’s design was eye-catching. The handles added a practical touch, making it easy to move in and out of the oven.Aesthetics: It truly looks good on the counter, making it not just a baking tool but a piece of decor.The Not-So-Good:Chemical Safety: Here’s where my excitement had to get a reality check. Although I assumed that it is free from certain chemicals, I decided to confirm its safety. I was particularly concerned about phthalates, which are not covered by FDA compliance that only ensures the absence of BPA.Lack of Clarity: Upon emailing Trudeau to inquire if their silicone was LFGB compliant, which signifies “platinum grade” silicone free of additives, I received a vague response stating it’s “100% silicone.” This didn’t clarify whether it was free from phthalates or other chemical additives that could be used in the process and leave a residue. Here was their reply: “Please note that our silicone product are made of 100% silicone.”Pinch Test for Additives: I tried to do the pinch test to see if material whitens as stretched to confirm if it has additives but since I got the white pan it was not possible to determine. I might get a dark color pan to make the final evaluation to see if it passes this test. If it does I would love to use these pans!Overall:Despite the appealing design and high-quality feel of the silicone, the lack of clear information about the chemical composition led me to return the product. I might get a darker model to do pinch test as I really like this pan.Pros:High-quality silicone feelSturdy, attractive handlesVisually pleasingCons:No clear confirmation on being phthalate-freeVague response from manufacturer regarding chemical safetyLFGB certification not confirmedConclusion:While the Trudeau Structure Loaf Pan is a beautiful piece of bakeware, the uncertainty about its chemical safety was a deal-breaker for me. If Trudeau could provide clearer details on their silicone’s purity (absence of phthalates) or confirm LFGB compliance, this could be a fantastic product. However, as it stands right now, I couldn’t justify keeping it for health reasons, especially when baking for my family.

These seem like the real deal
I did a lot of research when considering buying silicon loaf pans. These were the only ones I could find that seemed to be real silicon, without fillers. I also really like that they have a metal frame embedded in the pans as other silicon pans I have tried have bowed out of shape when used; these don’t: the keep their shape. And not only do they release baked goods without any need to oil or butter the inside of the pans first, they also get clean in the dishwasher. Recommended despite their relatively high cost.

The perfect product for my baking. I bake my own bread for 25 years. I always buy non sticking bread pans. Unfortunately all of them stick immediately or after a short time. Consequently I had to use pergamin paper to prevent sticking. This one, made with silicone, seems to be truly non stick. The metal frame added helps to keep the proper shape of your loafers. Great job.

Se nota que es buen material. Es resistente, fácil de desmoldar y se limpia bien. Los bizcochos quedan geniales.

Moule d’excellente qualité, n’accroche absolument pas je suis ravie de et achat
