Hi,
I'm a newbie to this board. I'm getting married this summer and am planning our wedding registry (although depending on which store(s) we end up registering at, I may just buy some of our cookware/bakeware myself). I like to cook and bake, but since I still live with my parents, I have only used my mom's equipment, a lot of which is non-stick. I'd like to get something uncoated, so it's a little more durable/long-lasting, and I don't mind if it takes more elbow grease to keep clean.
I keep reading differing opinions (both in books and online) about whether aluminum or stainless steel is best for bakeware. Right now I am trying to decide between a few different sets of bakewere for cakes/cookies/muffins/etc.
Nordicware seems to have a lot of nice aluminum things, and they all have lids, which appeals to me because I can store them in the same container I bake them in. I'm a bit concerned that one review mentioned that the items are thin metal with sharp edges (although the other reviews are positive):
