I pretty much make any cake recipe in it - lemon and blueberry loaf cakes, spiced apple cake, orange and poppy seed cake and apple, Ginger and honey cake all work out well. They are a great size to take over to anyone who lives by themselves - they can freezes a couple and just defrost one whenever they feel like some cake.
Like cupcakes but much less fussy!
