Diamond Blue Loose Based 20cm Flan, Tart and Quiche Tin

We’ve sold our share of quiche and tart tins over the years, but the one thing that was missing from our latest bakeware range was a traditional-style tin with a ‘cut’ fluted edge, which makes it easy to trim pastry to fit simply by rolling your rolling pin over it. That’s why we’ve brought in this Enamel Base Loose-Based Tart & Quiche Tin – and we’ve also given it a super-tough base so you can slice and serve straight from the tin.

Traditional tart tin with fluted edge

Perfect for sweet treats from lemon meringue pies to treacle tarts to fruit-topped flans, and savoury quiches both veggie and meat-stuffed, this 8-inch tin has a classic fluted edge, so you can drape your rolled-out pastry over the tin, press it into the base and against the sides, then roll again so the edge cuts through the pastry – voila! Perfectly fitting pastry with no extra trimming.

Attractive, easy-release non-stick coating

The fluted sides of the tin are made from carbon steel for an even bake, with a double layer of XYNFLON Diamond Blue non-stick coating so your pastry will release easily without leaving lots of stuck-on crumbs behind. It also has a lovely blue ‘sparkle’ effect under the light – which doesn’t have any particular benefit, but does mean this will be quite the prettiest tin in your baking cupboard!

Metal utensil-friendly enamelled loose base

You wouldn’t normally risk slicing and serving your tart or quiche straight from the tin for fear of scoring the metal or damaging the non-stick coating, but this tin’s loose base is different. It’s also made from carbon steel, but has an incredibly hard-wearing glass enamel coating that’s harder than steel. So once you’ve lifted out your tart on the loose base you can slice away without having to worry about your tin coming to harm.

Far superior to dried peas, beans or rice, these virtually indestructible ceramic baking beans conduct heat for even cooking, are non-stick and will last for years.

Stainless Steel Pastry Blender

It is often said that the true secret of melt-in-the-mouth flaky pastry, crumble and biscuit mixes is to keep all the ingredients cool as you mix… but it’s easier said than done. If you don’t have naturally cool ‘baker’s hands’, or if your kitchen is often warm, you’ll find this Pastry Blender worth its weight in gold.

With five strong stainless steel blades that keep butter cool and a strong yet comfortable handle, this traditional baker’s tool lets you break up a block of butter into your flour cleanly and swiftly in minutes, without any claggy mess or melting butter on your hands. So, just like the professionals, you can turn out batch after batch of pastry, biscuits or crumble toppings to a consistently high standard that will delight everyone around your table.

Pastry Brush

You've told us that what you really want when glazing pies and pastries is a no fuss, no frills, traditional Pastry Brush.

We've selected this one because it has a lovely beechwood handle and good, thick natural bristles that passed the Lakeland 'tug test'.

Due to the nature of this product a few bristles may come away from the base. We recommend gently hand washing the product.
