PanSpanFrisbie Pie Tin
Which of these pie tins should I choose if I came looking for a Frisbie Pie Tin?
For making pies rather than collecting, I’d choose the Yiyiring set: it gives you reusable metal pans in a familiar 9-inch size. If you bake for gatherings and want easy cleanup, NoCry’s foil pans are the more convenient pick. The right choice comes down to whether you want pans to keep or a stack you can pass along with the pie.
No authentic Frisbie Pie Company tin is among these picks. The Yiyiring set is closest as reusable metal pie plates, but it is functional bakeware, not a vintage stamped collectible or a flying disc.
#1 · Yiyiring
Yiyiring 20 Pack 9 Inch Metal Pie Pan Plate Aluminum Steel Pie Tins Bulk Reusable Pizza Pan Weight Steel Standard Version Bakeware Even Heating for Kitchen Pizza Snack Cake
Choose these if you bake regularly and want reusable metal pie pans rather than disposable foil. They stack for storage, and the pans are described as oven- and dishwasher-suitable; keep them out of the microwave.
#2 · NoCry
NoCry Premium Disposable Pie Pans 9 Inch (50 Pack) — Foil Aluminum Tins with Curl Lip for Baking Delicious Tarts or Crispy Pastry Crusts — Lightweight Yet Sturdy — Even Heat Distribution
Take these for bake sales, parties, or gifting pies when you don’t want to chase pans afterward. The curled rim helps support the crust, and the 9-inch shape suits standard pie recipes.
#3 · Spare Essentials

This is a practical bulk option for events, food sharing, or freezing pies ahead. Choose it when convenience matters more than keeping a reusable pan.
#4 · Waytiffer
Waytiffer 9" Pie Pans (10pack) - Disposable Aluminum Foil Pie Tins,Heavy-duty, Baking Tin Plates, Standard Size
Pick these when you only need a modest supply of disposable 9-inch pans for baking or takeout. They’re a straightforward alternative for occasional pie making.
#5 · PLASTICPRO
PLASTICPRO 6'' Inch Round Tin Foil Pie Pans Disposable Pack of 20
These are for individual 6-inch pies or smaller portions, not a standard full-size pie. The curled rim gives the lightweight foil pan a little more structure for handling.
Do you want a pan to keep, or one you can give away?
Yiyiring is the only reusable option here, and its pans stack for storage. NoCry’s curled rim gives its foil pans useful support, and you don’t need to get the pan back when sending a pie to a bake sale, party, or someone else’s table.
Are you baking for a crowd?
For a large batch, choose NoCry or Spare Essentials: both are disposable 9-inch options suited to sharing and event baking. I’d take NoCry when a supportive rim matters, and Spare Essentials when you want a bulk supply for baking, freezing, or takeout. For just a few pies, Waytiffer’s 10-pack is the simpler amount.
Do you need full-size pies or individual portions?
Choose one of the 9-inch pans for a standard pie recipe; the PLASTICPRO pans are 6 inches across and better suited to smaller pies. When using any lightweight foil pan, set it on a baking sheet before filling so the pan is easier to move without bending.

Questions buyers ask
How can I tell whether a vintage pie tin is original or a reproduction?
Look for a clear maker and location mark on the underside, then compare it with reliable historical references and ask for close photos of the lettering and the whole pan. A generic stamped-metal appearance alone doesn’t establish authenticity; provenance and condition matter too.
What should I look for in stamped lettering?
Compare the stamp’s placement and surrounding marks as well as its words; a cropped or angled photo can hide details worth checking.
Are these alternatives suitable as collectibles or for tossing?
No; none is a vintage collectible or flying disc. If you want an authentic tin, ask for clear underside photos and evidence of provenance, and inspect the stamp and condition.
Why do some vintage pie tins command more than others?
Collectible value can depend on the exact markings, condition, rarity, and documented history. Don’t pay a premium based on a vague claim of rarity; compare the specific piece with credible examples and inspect its condition closely.
How should I handle a disposable foil pie pan in the oven?
Keep the pan level as you fill it, and use oven mitts to move the baking sheet; avoid gripping the filled foil pan by its rim.
Can I use the reusable metal pans for more than pie?
Yes. The Yiyiring pans are also intended for foods such as pizza, cakes, and puddings. For the best fit, choose a recipe that suits the pan’s roughly 9-inch size.
