Home Made Cake Release

If, like me, you don't like aerosols and definitely do NOT want them near your cakes, then this is a simple to make alternative to greasing & flouring your cake tins.

Simply take equal parts of:

Plain flour
Vegetable Oil
Trex (or other hard white fat)

Blitz these all together and then store them in a Kilner jar.
All you need to do is then brush this onto the inside of your cake tins before filling and baking.
When our cake is cooked, allow it to sit in the tin for 5 minutes before turning out.
It's will keep at room temp for a few months; no need to refrigerate.

It's has worked for me EVERY time and even my most intricate giant cupcakes come out of the tin cleanly & perfectly formed.
