I would call this a kugelhopf tin. I tend to make quite heavy cakes in it - something more like pound cake or madeira cake, and yes, cherry ones too!
I find that sponges fall to pieces when trying to get them out of my kugelhopf tin because they are too light.0 -
I have that diamond cut fancy-looking bundt tin from Lakeland - I bought it in a charity shop just before Christmas for 99p and it didn't look as though it had ever been used. I just checked on the Lakeland site and although that one is now discontinued, it used to sell for over £30 so I am doubly pleased with my bargain.
Eta: I just had to share your find on the chazzer thread, it's this kind of inspiration that keeps us keen!Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

Second iteration:
Got cake release, lavishly brushed it into tin, tried 3 egg Mary Berry cherry cake again. Once cooked allowed to cool. Mixture had visibly ;moved away from sides. Used a plastic spatula very gently then turned upside down on plate and left it .. two minutes later gentle plop as it hit the plate. Perfect!:j
Have found out this tin requires a 5 egg mix so will scale up the mixture. (and cooking times?)0 -
oh what have I done? I am addicted to nordicware bundt tins and have bought another, the honeycomb pan. There is a wide range of prices for the bundt pans

Re cooling: I watched a youtube video and apparently the bundt must be cooled for precisely 10 minutes, any longer and the sugar causes it to stick to the tin. Glad I saw it
I have also bought a bundt recipe book. I so love nigellas recipe but having marbling etc makes an easy attractive cake for show. Very easy to make an attractive cake, a bit of icing sugar or a drizzle of something and it is done
the carrier looks good now, for when I make a bundt as a contribution to some event or other0 -

I bought a lovely sort of spiral one and made a fab apple cake in it. I can't find recipe but google 'apple cake in Bundt tin' or something like that. I makes moe of a dessert than a cake as its quite grand looking, and I don't make it often but it's really good.0

Ooooooooh I have Long been lusting after Nordicware bundt tins. Nearly bought a lovely one in Homesense before Christmas but didn't. Had a change of heart a week later and went back for it but it had gone. Well, it was only £12 so of course some canny baker had snapped it up.
I'm still grieving...
Lleucu, I am painfully envious of your lovely pan. It's gorgeous.
And the next one I see in Homesense or TK Maxx is going to be mine!!!
Oh and here's a good tip for cake release - seeing as this is a money saving website and all! Don't buy the bottled stuff from Lakeland - make some GOOP instead!
It's just equal parts flour, vegetable fat (I used to use white flora but can't get it anymore so I use Trex instead) and oil. Whisk it together (by hand is easy enough) then keep it in an airtight container (mine's in mason jar) in the fridge. Slop it all over the inside of your cake tin - no need to flour it afterwards because of the flour in the GOOP - and then pour in your cake mix. I found it on Pinterest and it's brilliant stuff.
I make lots of cakes in weird moulds and since using this stuff I've never had one stick - even my number 3 came out with no problem.0 -
Will try this Zephyr.

Bread and butter pudding - dont try this at home it was a disaster.
But walnut bread in the Fleur de Lys tin was fantastic. I watched the Victorian baking programme and decided to give it a try. Made a 2 loaf mixture with yeast, treacle, walnuts and sultanas, wanted to post a photo but my husband ate most of it!! It came out beautifully marked and literally fell out of the tin. Lovely with butter and camenbert for lunch.0
