Happy Birthday to John! Did he enjoy the cake? How many layers? 

 

He did like the cake.  It was baked in one of those round 3" high pans which I cut in half to make 2 layers.

Good idea!  I bought some 4-inch springform pans and I bet I could try that with them, too!

Indeed you can.  My pan was 4" across.

I made a half recipe of the Jam Swirled cake today and divided the batter iamong 3 mini loaf pans.  I cut one in half, added strawberries and some whipped cream and called it dessert.

@ElsieD your cakes always look so down home delicious. I haven't tried this one but you have turned me on to some really good recipes. Thank you.

I have three little bananas that I didn't want to throw out. They look terrible but these little bananas that they called dados are best when they are almost black. They are still firm and as sweet as honey.

I made 12 Mini muffins. I love these silicone molds. They are just the right size for a couple bites.

Does anyone have a favorite, true 8x4" (4 cup) loaf pan?

 

Thanks!

I have Circulon. They’ve been great for 10 years, still going strong.

@kayb Geez, I can only find 9x5 circulon pans online! 

 

[kayb]

Huh. Maybe they’ve discontinued the 8 x 4. I think I bought mine at TJ Max, so they may have been close outs.

No need to apologize; I thought I had recommended a product, but then couldn't find my post here!
