Why not? It is wonderful to be able to do so.

Yes we all get ideas from what we see and hear, nothing wrong in that.  :D

They look great robyn.....and it's not cheating....that cake has options  ;)

I made Bron's easy lemon sponge cake..... tastes great (the lemon sugar syrup is my favourite bit)



 but the middle of the ring tin decided to hold some chunks of  cake for ransom!  :'(

It was a good bundt tin, but lately it seems to stick, no matter how much greasing it has.
I always use sprink, and have good results from other tins.
I do prefer a lighter coloured tin too, as cakes can look too brown in the dark tin.
Oh well.....I might have to shop for another now.....my arm is twisted  :P
.........EAT CAKE!

Absolutely! 
I (and some lucky taste members) were lucky enough to order the cookie cake pan, via a taste member, from that store.....it did turn out expensive with postage on top, but it really is cool  ;)  I must use it again.



They have such great stuff!

Just so you don't feel bad I saw a love heart cake pan almost as awesome in a local kitchenware store for the same price we ended up paying for the cookie pan.  I LOVE my cookie pan and have used it so much more than I've used my Tupperware silicone thing.  Actually I don't think I've ever used that Tupperware one.  :-))

From memory it was you, me, saki and Kat that bought them.  As much as it wasn't cheap I'm glad I got it and love the quality of it.

I doubt COD would have had a quality one.
