Description
This round cake storage tin wears the Vintage Apple design all the way around its sides and right across its lid, so it looks as cheerful on the shelf as it does open on the table. Rows of halved apples in red, coral and soft pink sit on a crisp white ground. Each one is topped with little leaves in deep green, pale teal and mustard, and every apple has its own pattern of seeds, stripes or fanning lines. The tin is 24cm across and 10.5cm tall, with 9cm of depth inside, which gives a round sponge or a batch of fairy cakes plenty of room. Inside, the metal is left plain and silver.
It belongs in the kitchen, out on the worktop beside the kettle or tucked into a cupboard, ready for a homemade Victoria sponge, a shop-bought loaf cake, flapjacks or a few scones. The lid lifts straight off, so there is no fuss when it is time to cut a slice. It is just as handy for carrying a cake round to a friend's house or the office. If your kitchen leans towards bright, retro patterns, the red and pink apples will sit happily alongside painted crockery and wooden spoons, and the white background keeps it light rather than busy.
The tin is made of metal and weighs about 336g, so it is easy to lift down from a high shelf with one hand. It is not dishwasher safe and should be washed by hand only: rinse it in warm soapy water, then dry it thoroughly inside and out before you put the lid back on. Leave it out on an open shelf among your cookery books, where the apples add a cheerful splash of colour. Or fill it with a homemade bake and a handwritten recipe card for a gift that is lovely to receive and useful long after the cake has gone.
