ICING ON THE CAKE Black Loose Base Tart Tin 13x2.5cm

Bake individual showstoppers with the ICING ON THE CAKE Black Loose Base Tart Tin 13x2.5cm—a petite, professional-style tin that delivers crisp shells, neat flutes, and effortless release. The compact 13cm diameter and 2.5cm depth are perfect for single-serve fruit tarts, lemon curd classics, frangipane, custard pies, mini quiches, and no-bake cheesecakes, while the dark exterior helps promote even colouring and a beautifully golden base. The star feature is the loose base: once your tart has set, simply push up from underneath to lift it cleanly from the tin—no prying, cracking, or damaged edges—making delicate shortcrusts and glossy fillings a breeze. Gently fluted walls support pastry as it bakes for that bakery-finish edge, and the sturdy rim keeps the tin stable when transferring to and from the oven. For best results, place the tin on a flat baking tray for easy handling, chill pastry to minimise shrinkage, dock the base, and blind-bake with weights for ultra-crisp shells; a light brush of egg white partway through blind baking creates a moisture barrier for wetter fillings. Compact and stackable for batch prep, it warms quickly for consistent results and cools fast to prevent sogginess. Care: allow to cool before cleaning, then wipe or hand-wash in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly; avoid abrasive pads and sharp utensils to preserve the interior. Whether you’re plating dinner-party desserts or prepping café-style savouries, this sleek black loose-base tin turns small bakes into polished centrepieces—every time.
