My DD make a lovely chocolate cake in a glass ring thats very similar to that one, then drizzles melted chocolate over the top of it and dusts with icing sugar The kids love it .I think she bought her glass ring from a boot sale and the first thing I thought was that it was a washing machine door but it really is a thing I think from years ago that people made mousse in ,usually fishy mousse.This was back in the late 1960s early seventies.I thought they had all dissappeared into landfill sites along with those gadgets that you cooked meat/cheese in over a small flame, fondoue sets with long prong thingys.

wow this seems really good cake maker dish. Is it microwave compatible by the way?
How much did you pay for it and where did you buy it ? I was looking for one such at Tesco near our home.

I have a similar shaped baking tin, which I often use to make carrot cake in.

I have in the past, in more creative moments used it to make a fruit mousse, lined the tin with clingfilm to help with turning out and filled the centre with fresh fruit and cream. Another time I made a fatless sponge, like you would use for a swill roll or flan and filled the centre with fruit and chopped up jelly.

Made me think now I might try a 'de-constructed' trifle, with the flan thing and fill the centre with mushed up cold custard, jelly and fruit. Mmm!

Well done!!..wish I lived near your charity shop:) My local ones can be quite expensive believe it or not. Although..a few weeks ago I left a bag of clothes,that with all the wishing and tugging in the world were never going to fit me again, including a coat from Principles that I had bought from ebay about 4 years ago for £8, only to see it on sale there on Saturday for £20 lol....don't you just love recycling..everyone wins:)
