My Kitchen 12 Cup Mini Sandwich Tin

I thought I would use the tin a few times before I wrote a review. Like a few of the other reviewers, initially I added too much mixture and the cakes rose too high. For me, I have found that a 2 egg/100g of everything mixture has so far worked the best but I'm still having fun practising. I also use Cake Release which works really well. Thanks Lakeland for the lemon curd cake suggestion - my husband loves them!

My Kitchen 12 Cup Mini Sandwich Tin

Contrary to many reviews, I used a 4 x 4 x 4 + 2 egg mixture which filled the tins perfectly. The baked cakes were just the right size and in proportion. Just like a mini version of a Victoria sponge. Not too high and no spilling over the top to give a mushroom effect.

I was quite excited when I received this cake tin. It is very good quality, heavy duty. So, I had a trial run. I used the Be-Ro recipe for Victoria Sandwich, i.e 4oz Flour, Sugar, Marg and 2 eggs. bake for 20mins on 160c. It worked perfectly quantity wise, it filled all 12 holders, with none left over. if you fill just over half, its fine, although some of mine weren't even, so next time I'll use my ice cream scoop. I used Cake release and it was fine for the sides, but when I took the little bases off, some of the cakes stuck to them, I will need to practice a bit more. But I'm happy.

I bought this last week and couldn't wait to use it. My cakes came out perfectly. The removable bases are a dream. The cakes looked very professional and were enjoyed by all my work colleagues!

I love all things kitchen and and get excited about a lot of products, but the results of this one blew me away! I produced 12 perfect cakes of equal size and that looked awesome! Made two batches and both came out brilliantly! Thank you Lakeland! And anyone who is thinking about buying these - do it!!!!!

I made these today. Must grease tins more or learn to use easy release spray better.Mixed mine in a food processer like all my sponge cakes and sandwiched mine with jam and cream. Yes they were domed and looked a bit diffrent size but who cares still really nice, will do again.

I bought this for my daughter who loves making cakes. After a couple of disappointing results we found the recipe on your website and she got the right amount of mixture in the tins which produced very professional looking delicious cakes. If you get disappointing results at first it is worth varying the quantity until you get acceptable results. In my opinion well worth the effort. Only downside is the price but it is good quality and easy to clean.

I am having great fun with this tin but it needs using slightly differently than a normal tin. Have so far cooked mini victoria cakes, chocolate mini cakes, and the easter mini cakes. (recipes on this site A few tips: Brush the tins lightly with Cake Release. The mixture will fill the tins more than the recipes states but this is ok if you put equal amounts in each tin. Tap the tray lightly on a hard surface and then using a teaspoon make a slight dent in the centre of each mixture. (this prevents the mushroom top effect). Leave to cool before taking out. Use a cloth to push each cake out.

I purchased this mini cake tin a few weeks ago and used it for the first time at the weekend and made mini choc cakes. Absolutely superb results and all popped out without any trouble at all (I did lightly grease beforehand). I think the secret of achieving good results is to be mindful of how much mixture you place in each mini cake tin.
