Item # 317-30-200 is a 1 lb aluminum foil loaf pan, 15 fl oz capacity in a compact 6 1/4 × 3 3/4 inch format—the mini loaf size that bake sales, gift programs, and farmers market bakers run on. It turns a standard quick bread batch into two or three giftable loaves, and the pan itself is the packaging.

Walk any farmers market or bake sale table and the best-moving baked good is the mini loaf: banana bread, zucchini bread, lemon pound cake, all priced individually and sized for one household to finish. Item # 317-30-200 is the 1 lb format behind that trade—a compact foil loaf pan that bakes the loaf, wraps the loaf, and prices the loaf, with nothing to wash and nothing to return.
The mini loaf multiplies a recipe. A standard quick bread batch that fills one large loaf pan fills two to three of these 15 fl oz pans, and three small loaves consistently outsell one large one: lower price per unit, more units per table, and a size a customer buys on impulse rather than deliberation. For fundraising programs, that arithmetic is the whole point of the format.
Mini loaves bake faster than large ones, and the pan has to keep up: aluminum conducts heat quickly into the small body, so the crumb sets before the crust overbrowns. The 2 inch wall gives quick bread batter room to crown, and the tapered profile releases the loaf cleanly for glazing or slicing—or the loaf stays in the pan, which is how most mini loaves are actually sold.
A mini loaf in its foil pan needs almost nothing else: a clear bag or a sheet of wrap, a ribbon or a label, and it is gift-ready. Holiday gifting programs, church fundraisers, and farm-stand bakers all build on this property—the product leaves the kitchen finished, and the recipient gets a loaf they can freeze, gift onward, or serve straight from the pan.
Each case holds 200 pans at 4.2 lbs—a compact, light carton suited to home bakers as well as commercial programs. The loaf family extends to 2 lb and 5 lb formats for full-size quick breads and commercial loaves, plus oval challah pans for braided breads, so one supplier covers the full loaf program.
