Questions before you bake

Still wondering?Contact us
What is included in the set?

Each set contains a baking pan that creates two gingerbread cakes, Tomte the gnome figurine, The Tomte Cake storybook, and a recipe card.

When will my order ship?

We ship Monday to Friday. Our team aims to have all pending orders fulfilled by the next business day. We currently offer shipping to the USA, Canada, and Australia. Customs and duties are payable upon arrival in other countries.

Can I make it gluten free, or use a box mix?

Yes! Follow the recipe using a gluten-free flour replacement at a 1:1 ratio. You can also bake a box mix cake in the pan. Keep an eye on baking times, since they vary with different recipes.

What is the baking pan made of?

The Tomte Cake baking pan is made of uncoated aluminum that is free of chemical coatings such as PTFE. Aluminum's heat conductivity gives even baking, and the pan can last for generations if cared for properly.

How do I wash the pan?

Wash your baking pan shortly after use, with warm soapy water and a soft cloth, then hand dry. Avoid soaking the pan. Dishwasher use is not advised, as hard dishwasher detergents can cause discoloration.

Can I return it?

Returns must be initiated within 10 days of delivery, and return shipping must be initiated no later than 30 days from the date of purchase. The product must be in unused condition. We are happy to send you a return label, and your order is refunded (minus return shipping) when it reaches our warehouse. Food items are not eligible for returns.
