tube pan

Hollow-centered bakeware

A tube pan is a round baking pan with a hollow cylinder in the center, used primarily for angel food cake and similar light, airy batters.

The central tube conducts heat to the middle of the batter, ensuring even baking.

Most tube pans have removable bottoms and small feet on the rim, allowing the pan to be inverted while the cake cools—preventing delicate cakes from collapsing under their own weight.
