Sample Recipes:
From Pan
8-inch Round Cake Pan (2" deep)
50.27 sq in • 6 cups
Scale Ratio
Target Pan
9-inch Round Cake Pan (2" deep)
63.62 sq in • 8 cups

Pan note (1.27×): Multiply all recipe ingredients by 1.27× (surface-area ratio). 27% larger surface area than an 8" round; thinner batter bakes 4–6 minutes faster if unscaled.

Supports fractions (2 1/2 cups, ¾ cup), metric weights (200g), US butter sticks, and packing notes (packed, sifted, scooped).

Original vs. Target Pan Dimensions

Original vs. target baking pan dimensions, surface area (sq in), and rim-full cup capacity for 8-Inch Round to 9-Inch Round Cake Pan
Pan Dimensions Surface Area Rim-Full Capacity
8-inch Round Cake Pan (2" deep) 8" dia × 2" H 50.27 sq in 6 cups
9-inch Round Cake Pan (2" deep) 9" dia × 2" H 63.62 sq in 8 cups

Batter depth rule: Fill cake, brownie, and quick-bread pans between ½ and ⅔ full so batter rises evenly without doming. For dark nonstick or glass bakeware, reduce oven temperature by 25°F (15°C).
