Great British Bakeware Review and Giveaway



I have been lucky enough to be asked to review a new limited edition range of bakeware by the people at George Wilkinson. Named Great British Bakeware, the range has vintage styling on the outside twinned with superior non-stick coating GlideX on the interior. The bakeware does look very appealing, and I was given a 2 lb loaf tin to review.




The range also features an 8” cake tin, a 14” baking sheet and a 12 cup deep muffin tray as you can see in the images above and below. As well as being able to review this great range, I also have a set of the four items to giveaway – the entry form for the giveaway is at the bottom of this post.




Back to the review for now, and I chose to review the loaf tin. I don’t know about you, but I always find loaf tins are the one piece of bakeware which never truly releases it’s baked item, or cleans up 100%. I decided to make a Pennsylvania Spice Dutch Cake (more about that in my next post) as it was a very wet, sticky batter.




I greased the tin lightly as recommended and popped it in the oven to bake. And I can honestly say that the resulting loaf cake turned out from the pan with ease and had the sharpest corners on a loaf I have ever seen. When washing by hand, the tin cleaned up exceptionally well, with no hard scrubbing, and there were no gungey bits left in the corners, as I usually find in loaf tins. Bonus!!

I would thoroughly recommend Great British Bakeware for it’s fantastic non-stick qualities. And the design on the outside makes it stand out from all the other drab and boring tins in my collection.

The bakeware can be bought from Amazon. But if you would like the chance to win the loaf tin, cake tin, baking sheet and muffin tray – worth £55 in total, please enter below. The giveaway is open to UK residents only and the closing date will be midnight on 18th March 2013, giving you a full month to enter.

Disclosure Statement: I received the loaf tin free to review and was not committed to writing a favourable review. The views expressed are my own.

  17. The type of bakeware used for a specific recipe will make a difference in how the dish turns out. Some bakeware, for instance, may conduct heat poorly; others may discolor certain ingredients in the recipe.
