I'll cut to the chase: This eight- by three-inch anodized aluminum pan from Fat Daddio's is far and away my favorite. It's the brand we kept at the cake shop where I used to work, what I've always ordered when stocking a new restaurant kitchen, and the only thing I use at home. Not too expensive, either; a set of three will cost you about 36 bucks.
Not only will the extra depth benefit any cake (more on that below), it makes the pan more versatile, so it can be used in a broader range of recipes and take the place of many specialty pans. (In my restaurant days, I lined them with plastic to use instead of large ring molds for molded desserts.) The unusual depth makes this pan perfect for thick sponge cakes that are meant to be split into thin layers, such as génoise or chiffon, as well as for charlottes, mousse cake, and even cheesecake, too.
