Our 18cm sugar pan is crafted of solid un-lined copper, the traditional material for confectionery. Designed specifically for reducing sugar into syrups and boiling sugar-based confections. During such procedures, temperature must be diligently controlled and maintained.  That’s why solid copper is used.  No other material used in the manufacture of cookware conducts heat better. Interestingly, as sugar breaks down, its components have the ability to block reactive copper ions. That's why its safe to use unlined copper when making sweets and sugar syrups. The rustic cast iron handle and brushed surfaces create a vessel that is not only useful, but classically beautiful.

  • Unlined copper for greater temperature control
  • Gently curving sides and flat bottom
  • Higher sides to encourage crystallization
  • Exclusive Falk brushed copper finish

Use tips

  • Suitable for both electric and gas hobs.
  • Oven safe to 280°C/535°F/Gas Mark 8.
  • Because of its superior conductivity, copper (and copper core) cookware rarely requires full heat on a hob, typically no more than 50-75% of full power.  Use a lower flame when cooking with gas.
  • We recommend seasoning pan interiors with a vegetable oil occasionally prior to frying and sautéing, and always use a small amount of oil when pre-heating.
  • Avoid pre-heating an empty saucepan and never allow this to boil dry.
  • When seasoning your food remember to heat the water to boiling point first, especially before adding salt.  This disperses the salt quickly and prevents pitting of the stainless steel lining.

Care tips

  • Always allow pots and pans to cool before cleaning.
  • Do not put Falk cookware in a mechanical dishwasher.
  • We do not recommend the use of products containing bleach for cleaning copper cookware.
  • Hand washing in warm soapy water is normally all that is required.  Always dry immediately after washing with a soft cloth.
  • Copper will develop a rich patina over time.  This will not affect cooking performance.
  • To keep copper pans looking like new, use a suitable polish for copper and a fine abrasive pad.
  • Apply a light coat of vegetable oil to cast iron handles from time to time to prevent rusting.
  • For further information please see this article on maintaining and cleaning copper cookware.
  • Unless otherwise indicated, this item is available. Orders are typically dispatched within 48 hours of receipt. During peak periods this may be up to five working days. If for any reason it is not possible to dispatch your order within five working days, we will notify you immediately.
  • All items are carefully prepared for shipping, wrapped in plastic bubble wrap and protected with polystyrene peanuts, and packed in heavy-duty boxes.
  • Any item damaged in transit will be replaced immediately.
  • Please view our delivery information page for delivery charges to your destination, transit times, and other details.

A must for any sugar work. This pan is great for sugar syrups and caramels. It is only a small temperature difference that will change your caramel from being sweet and tasty, to being burnt and bitter. This is where the responsiveness of copper shines through, cooling quickly once taken off the heat.

I use the pan often for sugar syrups when making macarons with the Italian method. This requires a small amount of sugar syrup. However, because of the size of the pan, I must tilt the pan to get the sugar thermometer to register correctly. Something to consider if you only work with small volumes of sugar syrup.

Because the pan is unlined and copper is reactive to anything acidic, it is definitely a specialist pan.

Wow, OMG and other exclamations. Well, well, well. This is a serious step up from using stainless steel.
It is heavy for its size but it conducts the heat so beautifully, allowing you to be so precise with boiling sugars. I haven't burnt a thing (I can cook but boiling sugar is tricky)
I can't imagine using anything else ever again.

Sugar Pan As this has been bought as a Christmas gift for my son, he hasn't used it yet. The service from Falk was fantastic - very prompt delivery and excellent packaging. The pan is excellent quality and we are confident that it will be a once in a lifetime purchase for his career as a pastry chef. Looking forward to Christmas morning!

Update! Well we didn't get to try it out on Christmas morning, however it's become the favourite pan in the kitchen. Absolutely marvellous for it's given job for sugar work, but we cheekily hijacked it to make an outstanding braised red cabbage. Saving up for the roasting tin. Stunning product! *****

Perfect for all sugar work! My previous attempts at making fudge / toffee / caramel were, it has to be said, not entirely successful and generally resulted in (1) a barely edible and rock hard brown mess welded to the sides of the pan, (2) kitchen carnage, and (3) a certain amount of colourful language being expressed. However, this Falk pan (and a good sugar thermometer!), have transformed me from a wannabe confectioner into a domestic goddess of true proportions. The art and science of caramelisation have at long last become a process of beauty and simplicity, and I have achieved eternal popularity amongst my colleagues, simply by feeding them with home made almond brittle. Nigella had better watch out now, as she's got a rival with a secret copper weapon...
