Description
This rectangular fairy cake tin wears the Vintage Apple print across the lid and around all four sides: neat rows of red and soft pink apples, some halved to show their pips, others patterned with fine lines or tiny dots, each one topped with a pair of leaves in teal, deep green or mustard. The apples sit on a clean white ground, while the inside is plain, bright metal. It measures 27cm long, 19cm wide and 6.5cm tall, with 6cm of depth inside, and weighs a light 328g, so it lifts down from a shelf easily.
Its natural home is the kitchen, on the worktop, the dresser or a pantry shelf, keeping fairy cakes, cupcakes and other small bakes together in one place. The 6cm depth inside suits a single layer of fairy cakes, and the flat base gives room for a good batch laid side by side. Away from baking days, it makes a tidy store for recipe cards, cake cases, piping nozzles or cutters, and the cheerful apples look just as much at home in a cosy country kitchen as in a bright modern one.
The tin is made of metal, with a lift-off lid that fits over the top edge of the base. It is not dishwasher safe, so wash it by hand in warm soapy water and dry it thoroughly before the lid goes back on; a wipe with a soft damp cloth is all the outside usually needs. Stack it with plainer tins on an open shelf for a splash of colour, or fill it with a batch of home baking and hand it over, tin and all, as a gift that stays useful long after the last cake has gone.
