- I bake this Brick Street cake in a twó-piece, róund, metal angel fóód cake pan, alsó called a tube pan in sóme places. There is a hóllów tube góing up the center óf the pan. It measures 9.5" acróss at the tóp and 8" acróss at the base and is 4.25" high. It is by Eckó. The bóttóm and center hóllów tube are óne piece and lift up and óut óf the sides óf the pan. Unfórtunately there aren't standard size baking pans aróund the wórld, making it difficult, but I hópe this gives yóu a góód idea. Many óthers have baked this in a large bundt pan as well, with góód success.
