Thanks for the bundt tin / round tin feedback Chookie and Cookie.  I have never actually cooked in a bundt tin, simply because I was never sure about the cooking time - maybe one day I will feel adventurous and give it a try - will have to buy the tin first, though! 

Marina and Cookie, I don’t know either. Like Cookie, I have certain recipes that I only cook in the special tins. The cakes cooked in the Bundt tin are usually very big to get the full effect.
If I wanted to bake a recipe that I like, in a Bundt tin, I would start testing 10 minutes before the normal finish baking time. I write the results and note on the recipe. I also take a photo of the cake in the tin.
For bread, I put a slip of paper into the tin with instructions.

That sounds wonderful Chookie. The Good Food and Wine show finishes here today. I used to love going to it, but it’s become the Good Wine show and lots of ladies seem to use it as an excuse to become intoxicated for free. I don’t mind drinking but some people get rather ‘over the top.’ 

Tonight I had TMX mushroom risotto with garlic prawns.
The dining room at the Royce was lovely. The food very good. Being a small hotel the service is excellent.

Lovely to see the forum up again. I spoke with MM but he didn’t mention if it was the IT crisis that hit everything.
