Cake-stuff.com cake tins are split into 2 main categories . . . professional stainless steel cake tins and Wilton novelty shaped aluminium cake pans. Professional stainless steel cake tins are then split into further categories according to shape.
Please click on the images below to see the range of sizes in that shape of cake tin.
Professional cake tins are manufactured in tin-plated stainless steel for a lifetime of faithful service. Sure, there are cheaper tins on the market but what's the point? Cheap, thin cake tins conduct the heat unevenly, creating hot spots which can burn some parts of the cake while leaving other areas raw . . . not nice! Professional tin-plated steel cake tins ensure even heat distribution and are dishwasher safe although please expect a certain amount of discolouration if used in dishwashers, which is completely natural. Our professional cake tins are surprisingly affordable so go on . . . buy the best!
But not only do we sell the best, we realise that investing in top quality baking tins is not cheap so actively monitor the prices of all our main competitors (including giants like Amazon) to ensure we offer our customers the best prices possible. If you know of brand new Invicta professional cake tins being sold elsewhere for a better price please let us know - we want to make sure we always offer the best prices so will happily adjust our prices as required. Please note our sets of round and square Invicta cake tins are even better value.
One important point - these are not retail or gift items; they're professional cake tins designed for a lifetime of hard work. They are finished by hand by craftsmen and often include small dents and marks from the grinding wheels, or even little marks where they've been sitting in protective bubblewrap - these are purely cosmetic and do not affect the cake produced, therefore are not considered to be defects. Invicta tins are used throughout the UK bakery industry and are a great investment but if you're looking for cosmetically perfect tins (eg to give to someone as a gift) then these may not be for you.
Wilton novelty shaped cake pans / tins are one of the areas we're famous for . . . the Wilton range is huge and not every design is available in the UK but we carry more designs than most, including some really popular character tins you'll struggle to find elsewhere. Made in food-grade aluminium, they are strong and lightweight and will last for years. Wilton cake tins hold their value well and a Darth Vader Wilton cake tin from the early eighties recently fetched nearly £60 on eBay!
Wilton cake pans are dishwasher safe, but please remember that as they are aluminium, some discolouration is completely natural and does not in any way affect the tin's performance.
Wilton novelty shaped cake pans / tins are extremely versatile and easy to use. If you've never used them before then you're about to discover one of the great secrets of novelty cakes . . . Wilton cake tins (they call them pans in America) have detailed 3D moulding so that the cake comes out of the tin with all the important detail in place, making it really simple to decorate with sugarpaste or buttercream.
With a little bit of imagination you can use the general shape of most tins to create a number of extra designs. For example, the Golf Bag cake pan can very easily be adapted into a pint of beer, which is an extremely popular novelty cake design . . . picture a traditional pint glass with the handle on the right hand side and a frothy head of beer where the clubs are.
