Tramontina Utsava Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Appam Pan, 12-Hole Appe Pan with Lid, Great for Paniyaram, Takoyaki and more

Totally disappointed with this appe pan. It was the worst experience ever. Even after properly oiling each cavity, the appe stuck to the pan and got burnt. They were impossible to flip or remove without breaking, and the entire batter went to waste. I expected a non-stick performance, but it failed completely. Not worth the money and would not recommend this product.

Decent Pan. Well built and seems durable.

My new favourite kitchen utensil. Great price and quality

I received this item as part of the Tramontina Early Review program. To be honest, I had never used this type of cookware before. The build quality is excellent—solid cast iron, well-finished, and pre-seasoned as described. That said, the piece is highly specialized and may not appeal to all users, particularly those unfamiliar with its traditional use. I found it a bit limiting in versatility, as I wasn’t sure what to cook with it. I ended up using it to bake pandebono (Colombian cheese bread), which worked well. Overall, while it’s beautifully made, it may benefit from including more cooking ideas or recipes to help new users explore its potential.

This pan works great when we make Vietnamese small crepes
