Ceramabake by Rangekleen

Curious if anyone has experience with the ceramabake line by rangekleen? It says it is pfoa/ptfe free and made in the USA. More specifically, I am in the market for a new muffin pan as mine has literally been scrubbed to death (I popped one of the little cups right out of the pan lol). My hubby really likes when he works day shifts having a couple muffins for breakfast in the mornings (even I occasionally sneak one, against my raw foods diet).

New! CeramaBake? BC6000 12 Cup Muffin Pan

Besides ptfe/pfoa is there any other potentially toxic parrot killing compounds I should ask the company about before ordering the pan? I have vintage and a couple cast iron porcelain enamel coated pots and pans I have never had any issues with whatsoever, but I'm not entirely sure about the ceramic coatings. With there being more and more links to health issues from long term use of aluminum cookware, I'm trying to eliminate the aluminum I have or at least the aluminum food comes in direct contact with anyways. Being as I was unable to find a glass or solid stainless (could only find coated in stainless, which is weird) muffin tin, my other thought besides ceramic coated was a stoneware or cast iron muffin pan. My only concerns with these is the weight of a stoneware or cast iron pan (especially when trying to get it out of a hot oven!).

A quick look around said virtually every home type store offers everything from half dozen to 2 dozen stainless pans & even a few commercial types in 4 dozen configurations.....

Just in case your hubby really likes his muffins.....

I did look around, and they seem to offer solid stainless sheets, cake pans, roasting pans ect... However, I don't need to replace any of those! The "stainless" MUFFIN pans though are not available in solid stainless from anywhere I could find. They are stainless bonded to aluminum.

Those look great! I have a stone cookie sheet that I adore, and it's definitely heavy lifting out. But it always brings out awesome results. It's not a ceramic mix though, so that's probably why. Over time my stoneware darkened, but that's to be expected. But the weight isn't so much that I think you'd strain yourself, and over time you just adjust and become accustomed to the weight. I also really like that you just wipe them down rather than using soap. Makes something heavy a lot easier to clean.

I don't have any experience with purely ceramic for bakeware though, and I'm rather interested. Ceramic should be perfectly safe though. I don't think there's much to it that would off gas anything or leak from what I understand.

Maybe not within walking distance, but no aluminum:
