"Battenberg perfection"
Have now made two cakes using recipe supplied and both times excellent results. Friends impressed asking how I managed to get all equal pieces of sponge. A good investment.

Silverwood Battenberg Tin
Product number: 70952
A true classic come afternoon tea, the colourful Battenberg cake puts a smile on everyone’s face, and shop-bought just can’t compare with home-made. If you’ve never tried baking one before, this bespoke Battenberg Cake Tin from UK baking specialists Silverwood makes it easy, ensuring a beautiful cake every time.
Made from anodised aluminium, it keeps the different coloured sponges separate while they bake and means you don’t have to mess about cutting them to size, just sandwich the strips together and wrap that yummy marzipan round for perfect results. You could even try an ice cream take on a Battenberg or any number of checkerboard variations, or remove the dividers to bake one large cake.
This tin also includes a recipe, to help you bake the perfect Battenberg.

If you love b-berg but have never managed to nail it using loaf tins, this is the answer. The review from Ms Deacon says the recipe is bad. It's a classic Victoria Sponge recipe (6/6/6/3) which requires a bit of skill. If you don't have the know-how, an all-in-1 sponge using margarine will be more foolproof. The reason it's too much mixture is so you can cut it off to a completely flat finish. She's right that the resulting cake is larger than the piddly little pre-packaged ones from the supermarket, but surely that's a good thing? There is no such thing as a "standard" battenberg cake size! :)
Versatile and durable, the Silverwood Battenberg Tin is easy to use and the perfect size to create a very delicious and satisfying family favourite cake. I highly recommend this particular brand stocked by Lakeland. Jag
We all love Battenburg cake -this tin is perfect and so easy to use. I greased the floured the two ends, then used baking parchment to line the rest all in one piece (8" x 18"). Tip - use disposable piping bags to fill the tin - is saves a lot of time and mess! Wonderful result first time! A classic Battenburg has almond flavoured sponge so I used almond extract instead of vanilla
Thank you for placing your review. We're pleased how happy you are with this product. Your tips are great and will be invaluable to others - thanks for sharing these.
When I saw this in the shop I thought it was a bit small, but it's a tardis and surprisingly big when it's assemble! It's a shame this tin won't go in the dishwasher (only reason for not giving 5 stars) but Silverwood is good quality bakeware so if it's anything like my other Silverwood tins it will last for years if look after it. Making the cake is a bit of a fiddle but looks v good. I put rec amount of pink food colour in half of mix to get the checkerboard effect, but need loads more next time as little contrast colour.
