Nadstar Aluminium Square Tray with 13 Cake Moulds, No18

Our review

This Nadstar tray is a square aluminium pan with thirteen moulds built into it, listed as No18 and measuring 331 mm across with a depth of 1.50 inches. At 0.75 kg it is light enough to lift in and out of the oven without much effort. The moulded design suits anyone who wants to bake several small cakes or portions at once rather than one large bake, and the square shape fits neatly against other pans on a shelf. The listing also describes it as a rectangle baking tray and deep oven pan for lasagna, brownie and pizza, so it is positioned as a general-purpose piece rather than a single-use mould. Before buying, check that 331 mm fits your oven shelf and that 1.50 inches gives you the depth you need for the recipes you have in mind. Compare it with plain flat trays if you mostly bake whole slabs, and with dedicated muffin tins if you want deeper, round wells. Aluminium conducts heat quickly, so line or grease the moulds as your recipe advises. Available on Sokonia.
