The cakes are out - not an unqualified success but I think that was down to me & not the mould. What I learnt was
- probably best to only fill the sections half full - otherwise the resulting slices are huge and can overflow when baking
- Dont put it onto an “off” electric hob to cool without checking its actually off ( mine wasnt) - otherwise you end up with burnt cake and burnt fingers ( the mould actually stood up to the heat from the hob very well)
