I own a LOT of cast iron..in fact, I probably own most of what Lodge has put out including everything from the cast iron hibachi grill to wok, pans, kettles and much (much) more. I LOVE the durability, ease and convenience of cooking and baking with cast iron.
Recently I needed some additional bread pans and since cannot find Lodge brand any longer I purchased 2 from Sante Cabin and 2 from Old Mountain. Old Mountain arrived quickly, well wrapped/packaged and completely treated. Washed and used to encounter bread that dropped effortlessly from the pan without need for barely any prompting. After a few more uses the finish was even better…perfect.
The Sante Cabin cast iron arrived a few days later, washed to prepare for use and pan immediately began to rust. Description indicates “true seasoned” and “ready to use right out of the box” but also denotes “non-seasoned”. This pan is NON_SEASONED despite a superficial appearance to the contrary. While seasoning is not a big deal for those experienced with it (and some may prefer their own seasoning to factory treated seasoniing), it is worth mentioning for those that are searching for a TRUE pre-seasoned loaf/bread pan. If so, go with the Old Mountain bread pan instead. There is a shape difference – Old Mountain has a rather odd angled shape whereas Sante Cabin provides a more traditional “bread loaf” shape.

I have several pieces of cast iron cookware, mostly Lodge brand. But since Lodge doesn’t make their loaf pans anymore, I went with this brand. I love cooking with cast iron because it distributes heat evenly and will last you a lifetime with proper care & seasoning. I thought I was making good banana bread in my regular teflon pans until I started using this new cast iron loaf pan. WOW, now my banana bread isn’t just good, it’s wonderful! Cooked evenly, moist inside with a nice brown outer crust. Just like banana bread should be. For the price it’s a steal, because you will have this pan forever. Whereas teflon pans scratch and wear out over time. The only downfall some people have with cast iron is the heavy weight, but I don’t have a problem with it. Not only am I cooking, im getting an arm workout at the same time!

I make my own bread for my family and have used many bread pans but this one is the best. I only have one of the cast iron bread pans so when I make more than one loaf I still have to use my old pans. I have both aluminum -which is terrible and a stainless steel. The loaf in the cast iron has a much higher more even rise. I don’t know the physics behind this but I am going to be getting another of these pans. It also has a really nice solid feel and is very easy to clean. Just slather it up with oil (I use extra virgin coconut oil – since it has so much saturated fat and doesn’t easily go rancid it seasons the pan really well) before I put the bread in and it comes out clean with no mess. If you are looking to invest in a great bread pan that will last a long time, this is the one for you. I am seriously considering a cast iron muffin pan now since this one has been so great.

I purchased 2 pans a year ago. I was not pleased to see that they were made in China but they are heavy and appear to be of good quality. (I have seen many other China cast iron pieces which do not seem to be pure… color off, weight is very light, and have poor heat distribution.)
(See last paragraph!)
Based on my experience with cast iron, I would recommend these pans because they appear to be of pure cast iron, cook very very well and are a breeze to clean up.
I make bread every couple of days and they make such lovely loaves. I have also made non yeast breads and they too are magnificent! I have even tried meat loaf in them and have been so very pleased with the results.
Everything cooks evenly, never sticks (if lightly oiled before use) and has a truly delicious taste.
They are far superior to my glass loaf pans. I am going to replace those with more cast iron.
All of this said, I have decided not to purchase more Sante Cabin pans. The product info says “new pans” which has me suspicious of their quality. I have decided to order pans directly through Lodge of TN. I can purchase them with a phone call to a number of their factory stores. (If the one you call does not ship them, ask who does and get the phone number). They will ship UPS and their cost is comparative.
If you too are concerned about quality (no lead in your pans!) order USA made!

I was searching for a regular size loaf pan, one that would give me a loaf around 12 inches long. I love cast iron and thought this would be the perfect pan. But, upon receiving was very dissapointed that they included the handles in the product dimension. The loaf size in only 9 inches, but when you add the handles it becomes 11 inches so this product is being returned.
