The Future Looks Sweet!
The Wilton School is temporarily closed as we undergo a transformation.
Based on feedback from our students and passionate fans, we’ve been inspired to evolve to better serve our local and global community.
We are extremely proud of our long history and thank you for your continued support and patience as we bring this new vision to life.
Over the next several months, the Wilton School will undertake a metamorphosis allowing us to grow stronger for a sustainable future at an international level – we will reopen in 2024 with a refreshed look and curriculum.
History of Wilton School
The Wilton story began in 1929 with one man’s passion and talent for making confectionery art.
Dewey McKinley Wilton created The Wilton School and developed a method of dessert decorating that reached beyond professional bakers to households around the world.
These aspiring bakers and decorators all come to the Wilton School for the same reason: To learn from the world’s most trusted brand in decorating.
Our Products
Our consumers are at the heart of everything we do.
That’s why we’re constantly working to provide you with the tools you need to make baking and decorating fun and easy.
From quality bakeware to curated decorating kits, our products are designed with you in mind.
ALUMINUM BAKEWARE
Available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes to fit any budget, aluminum bakeware is a great choice for pastry chefs and home bakers alike.
With lines that include Wilton Performance Pans TM and Decorator Preferred TM pans, aluminum bakeware is lightweight and thin.
Traditional aluminum pans also have straight sides for easier decorating and stacking.
Made from anodized aluminum, these pans are rust-resistant for longer lasting use and are excellent conductors of heat, so you get an even, light-golden finish.
Aluminum bakeware is safe for most foods, but it’s best to avoid using them for anything acidic, such as tomatoes, vinegar and citrus.
The pan could alter the food’s flavor and the acid could damage your bakeware.
Because aluminum pans are not topped with a non-stick coating, they should be hand washed.
For best results, follow the instructions on your recipe for how to grease (or not grease) your pan.
NOVELTY AND CHARACTER PANS
Aluminum is also the material of choice for most novelty and character pans.
Whether you’re looking for something generic, like a star or a book, or something more fun like a beloved character, these pans are great for making any celebration something special!
NON-STICK BAKEWARE
One of the most popular choices with most bakers and decorators is non-stick bakeware.
Durable and scratch resistant, non-stick bakeware comes in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes.
When selecting non-stick bakeware, take note that the darker the coating, the faster your baked goods will brown.
Recipes often recommend lowering the baking temperature if using a darker non-stick pan.
ARE WILTON PANS WITH A NON-STICK COATING DISHWASHER SAFE?
Because of their non-stick coating, these pans offer quicker and easier cleanup than aluminum pans.
They’re dishwasher safe (though we still recommend hand washing them for longer use) and include a warranty in case anything goes wrong.
We recommend using a liquid detergent.
Dishwasher pods or tablets can be too harsh and damage the coating.
Hand wash for best results and longevity of your pan.
WHAT IS THE NON-STICK COATING ON WILTON PANS MADE OF?
Our non-stick coating is silicone polyester, and our non-stick pans are made of cold-rolled steel.
Here is some additional information regarding the coating on our pans:
Wilton does not use Teflon non-stick coatings.
Wilton does not use any non-stick coatings manufactured by DuPont.
Wilton coatings have no intentionally added BPA, Lead, Cadmium, PFOA or PTFE.
All Wilton non-stick coatings are safe up to 450 degrees F unless otherwise specified on product labeling.
All our products are thoroughly tested and verified to meet applicable laws and regulations.
In addition, each product undergoes extensive review by a team of safety experts and is tested by an independent lab.
