"Great result" star star star star star I purchased this belt a while ago, and only just used it. I got an excellent result when baking my Christmas cake (using my go-to recipe by Delia Smith) and got an even colour and no burnt edges. Do read the instructions first, as you need to soak the band in water, before putting around the tin. It also saved me lining the tin with greaseproof paper ( but I lined the base) which I would usually do.
"Amazing!" star star star star star Moved house with new oven. Last two years my Creole Christmas cakes were slightly burnt. Purchased this baking belt with some apprehension. I need not have worried. Not only did I leave the cake in the oven for the four hours recipe time but it came out of the oven golden and thoroughly cooked . I have recommended this to many friends and family.
"Fantastic" star star star star star Such a helpful product. Really helps to achieve an even bake. Longer bakes helped by the outside protection
"Excellent purchase" star star star star star I have used this for the first time and was delighted with the results. My Christmas cake was in the oven for 4 hours and it cooked perfectly. I have been using a double sheet of brown paper round my tin for years as my Gran taught me, but it is a bit of a clart!! This has been a game changer and I can't believe I have only just discovered it this year. I highly recommend this product to all Christmas cake makers
"Excellent product" star star star star star I’ve been using these to bake Victoria Sponges. Such a great result because the cakes are moist all the way to the edge and hence stay fresh for days and don’t go dry.
