KitchenAid Fluted Cake Pan
Lower PFAS concern for a fluted (not smooth nonstick) cake pan, but KitchenAid offers no coating transparency.
KitchenAid's fluted cake pans use a textured surface that does not require the high-performance nonstick coatings most likely to contain PFAS. The brand discloses nothing about PFAS or coating chemistry.

Why this grade

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 72% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
