Cheaper version of Nigella's fir tree bundt tin?

Anyone know where I can pick one up? I really want to make this cake, but £30 for a cake tin you are going to use only once year seems a bit steep.

TIA

There is a shop near to us that rents shaped tins out, no idea how much it costs but there could be something similar in your area?

YY to renting one to see if you like the result.

Cheap cake tins are a waste of money IMHO, but I'd Shock at £30 for a once-a-year tin.

And if you hire one, it'll be 'seasoned'.

I bought a silicone one from eBay, I think it cost around £8, I've only used it once and the tree tops stuck in the mould, that may have been my fault though Blush

Thanks for all the replies. Great idea about the renting, we have a place near here too so I'll check it out.

I have never had much luck with silicone either, although I find it works better with that cake glide stuff from Lakeland.

I bought the Fir Bundt tin last year after much ummming and ahhhing. I put it in my amazon basket and watched it till the price dropped. Think I paid 20 for it in the end. It really is a fantastic tin!
