Giant Cupcake - need help with a recipe

(12 Posts)
By Thu 02-Jul-09 13:05:28 Add message | Report | Contact poster
I've been given one of those Wilton giant cupcake tins as a present. Was v pleased as they are expensive but.....it didn't come with a sample recipe. Does anyone know what size sponge mix it will take? I have looked online, but can only find a double choc recipe which isn't what I want.

TIA

It cake mixture in both halves (on one tin).

It stands about 10/12inches tall when made and put together.

yes cake mixture in both halves. It's a biggie!!

I wondered that for a second but I think both parts are one tin, so the bottom half tin would balance it?

Ah, a 4 egg sponge mixture....that's exactly what I needed to know. I can't wait to make it....what a shame that DH doesn't have a sweet tooth - just me and DD to polish it off

You need this.

I've not seen one of these cupcake tins, but I think a cake in a 20 cm cake tin is supposed to serve 10
so any of those recipes might be okay

It's actually for 1 giant cupcake (to serve around 10) but this recipe looks good....I'll give it a go.

Thanks
