Cake tin help...

Thread Starter: Muppetry    Started: Thu 29 Oct 2009    Replies: 3

I have a recipe from Australia for mini, individual cheesecakes and it states I need to use twelve loose-bottomed mini cake tins, each approximately 6cm wide.

Any idea where I could buy these online? I took a look in my local cookery shop but the smallest tins they stocked were 15cm.

Thanks!

These are 9cm:-

These are 6cm, but perhaps a tad pricey for occasional use...

you will need to scroll down to the Silverwood mini cake pan set:-

A much cheaper way would be to use small cans - just remove both ends and you have a steel ring. ASDA do small cans of pears for around 40p each.

Nesbits have some 10cm loose bottom tins, but I will keep looking for you.

If you have to innovate, Lidl sell a reusable baking fabric called 'alio cooking liner', it's under £2, and if you cut out some discs and place them in the bottom of an ordinary tray, e.g. one of those big Yorkie trays, you will find the contents almost jump out of the tins when required Wink

It's brilliant stuff, the more you use it, the better it gets.
