What does bakeware mean to you? Does it just mean cookware for cakes,
cookies, and muffins or does it also mean roasting pans, au gratin
dishes, etc.?

I ask because I have a category on a website and I am not sure if
bakeware is appropriate. It doesn't have any cakes or cookie stuff.
It is all au gratin, roasting pans, etc. kind of stuff.

Thank you for any comments.

I say bakeware for metal baking pans like cookie sheets, muffin tins,
cake pans; and ovenware for glass or ceramic oven-safe cooking vessels.
Roasting pan, eh? Baking pan.
I have spoken. "-)

used in the oven for baking

Would you put a casserole in that category?

Bakeware means just what it implies, both the definitions in your first
paragraph fit fine. Any container that's used to bake could be
reasonably classified as bakeware and making an au gratin dish or a
roast is certainly as much a form of baking as making a cake, cookies,
or pie.

You could even use ovenware to cover both types.
Just send the check to Barb Schaller. . . .

Yes, because its used in the oven for baking.

Note that some cookware can fit into more than one category, and a
casserole dish is probably one of them where, depending on how the dish
is made, it may be used for baking and cooking on the stovetop, and
maybe even for serving food.

Bakeware = anything you can bake food in. In general, oven-going, as
opposed to stove-top.

You could differentiate - as:

oven cookware and stove-top cookware.

Ovenware is a more general term... to me, bakeware means the metal
pans, but ovenware could be pyrex or ceramic - just something made to
go in the oven.
