Abstract
A pan with removable drop-in baking wells. A main support structure defines a plurality of apertures in which a plurality of baking wells of various shapes and sizes can be temporarily inserted during use. The main support structure includes a vertical side wall and support foot that engages a countertop, oven rack, or other surface. Accordingly, the bottoms of the baking wells do not come in contact with the countertop, oven rack, or other surface, because the baking wells are adequately supported by the main support structure.
