Product Overview

  • Quickly helps determine readiness of your cakes
  • Made of rust-proof steel
  • Easy to wash and reuse multiple times
  • Wide blue polypropylene handle provides comfortable grip
UPC Code:014963014455

Ensure that your cake is thoroughly cooked with the Ateco 1445 cake tester.

By using this cake tester, you can check the status of your baked goods quickly and effectively. Simply insert the rust-proof steel rod into the center of the cake and pull it out. If there is batter on the rod, the cake needs more time in the oven. If not, you're ready to decorate. It's that simple!

Thin Needle

A much better option than toothpicks and skewers, this cake tester features a long, thin needle that won't leave large, gaping holes in your cakes.

Easy to Grip

This tester's wide blue polypropylene handle features a textured, indented design for comfortable use and a firm, secure grip.

Easy to Wash

After you've checked your baked goods, simply wash the tester in warm, soapy water and it's ready to be used again and again.

This Ateco cake tester is great! We used to use toothpick at our bakery to test cake but in such a high volume production facility, it became impractical to keep buying wooden toothpicks when we can just buy one tool that will last forever! We at miFLAVOUR highly recommend this cake tester!

These make testing your cake much easier. no more burning your hand on the rack above the cake your testing, like we all do when trying to use tooth picks!

I actually love this cake tester, always used toothpicks before purchasing this. I actually purchased two different ones to compare, this one is my preferred choice. I know when the tester comes out clean my baked item is done & it’s always been accurate.

my favorite way of testing cakes and cupcakes, the pin is skinny enough that it wont deflate the cakes or cupcakes when testing the centers

Great quality cake tester. I’ve been using it for a while and it works well. I also use it at times as a tool when icing cookies.

Nice, easy to use & great to have on hand in bulk. We use them daily, clean in the dishwasher & I haven't had any that have broken or rusted yet.

The Ateco 1445 Cake Tester is the standard in the industry. Works reliably and is well made to survive being tossed around and kept in a random kitchen drawer with other utensils.

The product works fine. I have purchased 2 and all though it is a little flimsy it works for the. I would have like something without plastic on the end.

Performs job adequately. Minimum flex but not brittle. Flat tip, good for testing doneness of vegetables, marbling liquids, etc. Wipes clean. Good design- textured on both sides for grip with an indentation for finger pad on top.

These cake testers are a great idea. I love having something reusable to test doneness instead of using toothpicks. However, the steel is very smooth and as such, it doesn't pick up a lot of batter. I have found that it can come out clean on a cake that is still quite under-cooked because the wet batter doesn't stick to the metal. Great idea, not the best execution.

These cake testers did not work very well. We decided to use toothpicks instead.They seem to be so small that they did not work for us anyways. Would not recommend them.

I affectionately call these my “pokies” because they do test for doneness without damaging our cakes. They are easy to clean, and won’t bake without them!

As far as cake testers go, this one works as well as others I have tried. I like the little handle, as it prevents slippage.

So much easier to use then a toothpick. I am glad I found something reusable instead of buying and tossing toothpicks. Just throw it in the dishwasher and it’s good to go.
