  • Mine is cooked and is now cooling, it looks a bit crusty and hard on the top though? Should I leave it or cut the top off?

    Hi Princesswoo,

    Can I ask, do you mean you will get 4 x 8" cakes from one bag and if so did you bake your 4 at the same temp & time as if it was 1 cake you were baking?

    ps your cakes look fab especially in your boxes :)

    NO you will get 4 x 4 inch cakes from 1 bag, i baked mine a one 8 inch cake and cut into 4 so I cant comment on cooking time.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    Juat found this useful link on an old thread. Really handy information and video about lining a cake tin.

    I have my second cake in the oven at the moment. I have split it into two small loaf tins.

    Remember the Free ones we got with Lurpak butter, a while back? They were 3 for a fiver, and each cake tin held 2 packs of lurpack. :rotfl: Also they had a 30p off coupon with them. Real bargain.

  • I bought two. Made one on Saturday and then bought another kit as they are so easy to make. If I wander into tesco later I am very tempted to get the cupcake kit if there are some.

    I've checked on mysupermarket for a delivery later in the week (as tesco normally do price/offer changes on Tuesday night) and the cake mix is coming up at £5 and the cupcake mix at £2.50 still. For the people who say it's full price have they checked the price online or asked for a price check at the till ? Could it be a case of the tickets not been changed?
