For corner brownie fans and chewy edge lovers, it’s a dream come true — a gourmet brownie pan that adds two chewy edges to every serving! It’s the Edge Brownie Pan from Baker’s Edge, and it’s the first (and only) brownie pan specifically designed for chewy edge lovers. The pan’s patented sidewalls also improve baking performance by circulating heat evenly to the pan’s middle, where food typically takes longer to bake. The size is just right — 9″ x 12″ x 2″, so it’s a perfect fit for box mixes and most recipes for 9″ x 9″ and 9″ x 13″ conventional pans. The hefty cast aluminum construction adds durability and the unique recessed handles make the pan easy to grab when it’s turned upside down. The pan also has a quality nonstick coating and smooth, round corners for quick and easy clean-up. Widely acclaimed for its innovation and quality since its launch in 2006, the Edge Brownie Pan has quickly become one of the most talked-about new products in bakeware. The pan has received rave reviews by more than 200 magazines, newspapers, and blogs. Units are individually boxed and come complete with a gourmet recipes insert and a custom nylon spatula.

Customer Review: A Must for Brownie Lovers
I love brownies. I bought this pan mainly for it’s unique design and features. This pan is excelent, it provides uniform cooking so you don’t get burnt edges and soggy middle parts. It also makes easy to create uniform portions. I highly recommend this product to anyone who loves baking.
Customer Review: Crispy Brownies, etc.
I love using the Edge Brownie Pan — what a clever invention! Now everyone can have the crunchy edges with every brownie — or every piece of lasagna!

Customer Review: Good for historical info, but not for analysis
This book read really quickly, and was full of neat information that I never knew before, but I can’t help wishing it had been better written and edited. I caught several (as in way, way too many) grammatical errors and typos. On top of that, the style was close to awful, with strange sentence construction that distracted from the point of the work. Like I said, the information was neat, but the analysis was bare bones, and mostly made huge assumptions in the reader’s familiarity with the subject matter. I very much enjoyed learning all the historical details I never knew before, like that sci-fi fans wrote the first real zines in the 1930s. But when it came to the more modern stuff, the eras I know more about, there was little in the way of new or exciting information. Thought-provoking analysis would have made up for this, but it just wasn’t there. I got this book on a recommendation from one of the feminist magazines I read, and I’m not terribly upset to have it in my collection. It’ll make a good source to cite for clear historical info. Other than that, it’s pretty lackluster.
Customer Review: Lots of facts, but little cohesion
This book is a wonderful collection of facts, giving you a wave of information about DIY music and publishing (although she mainly sticks to ‘zines, not self-published books or anthologies) The style of writing is pretty dreadful, and it made for slow going, and there was little cohesion between areas. Rather than have a thesis, the book concludes just about every chapter with comments like “And that’s part of DIY culture.” or “DIY culture is really important” If you’re looking for basic information on DIY music and publishing, and don’t mind the lack of a coherent flow, it’s a great book. However, if you’re looking for insight on the world of DIY, you won’t find it here.
