Discover Quality Cake Tins At Spotlight
Baking a delicious cake requires a suitably high-quality baking tin to match, and you can find an amazing range of cake tins and pans right here at Spotlight! The right cake pan or tin will ensure your carefully-crafted cake comes out of the oven in one piece, as well as help it cook evenly and rise to the height you want. With trusted brands like Wiltshire and Mastercraft available for you to choose from, finding the perfect cake pan for your next baking project has never been easier!
The Types Of Cake Tins You Can Find At Spotlight
We have a fantastic variety of cake tins for you to choose from, including:
- Round cake tins: The classic round cake pan is a must-have for any baker. Look for tins with extra depth if you want to bake a particularly high cake.
- Square and rectangular cake tins: Perfect for both cakes and slices, a rectangular or square tin creates those delicious chewy edge pieces everyone loves to grab when the cake comes out.
- Bundt pans: A bundt pan is a round cake pan with a cylinder in the middle used to create cakes with an empty centre. It's a handy pan to have on hand if you like to bake number cakes for special occasions.
- Springform cake tins: If you've ever struggled to get a cake out of a cake tin then springform pans are the answer to your prayers! These handy pans open from the side with a 'spring' mechanism, allowing you to safely lift the cake out of the pan without the need to shake, tap or turn the pan upside down.
- Flexible cake pans: These pans are made from silicone instead of metal and allow you to 'pop' the cooked cake out of the pan. Most are also freezer, dishwasher and microwave-safe.
- Tart tins: These cake tins are specially designed for baking tarts with thin, crispy shells. They allow moisture to escape as the tart cooks and feature sloped sides so the tart is easy to remove.
Most metal cake pans come in steel grey, although there are rose gold varieties available for some styles as well.
Cake Tins FAQ
What is a cake tin?
A cake tin is a metal or silicone baking tin designed for baking cakes in the oven. It features high, connected sides and usually a flat bottom, and will usually have either a nonstick coating or a springform release mechanism to make removing the cooked cake easier.
How to measure a cake tin
Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure across your cake pan from the inside lip to the inside lip. Measure the height from the inner edge as well - measuring from the outside will mean any cake you bake will come out smaller than you measured.
How to line a cake tin (works for round and straight-edged tins)
Place your cake tin base down onto a sheet of baking paper and use a pencil to trace around the base. Cut the shape out with scissors - you will have a shape the perfect size for lining the base of your cake pan. If you want the sides lined as well, place the side of your tin on another sheet of baking paper and mark its size, adding 2 cm at the top, then cut two strips of baking paper this size. You can add these to a greased tin after adding the base paper. The extra height will help you remove your cake at the end.
