Product Information

When it came the time to re-purchase some of these items, I made the unfortunate discovery that nearly everything was triple the cost in Switzerland, that muffin tins on this side of the world were a different size, and that some baking tins were just simply irreplaceable. My main hobbies at the moment are baking, and setting the world record for the number of cake tins owned by one person.

I think the French have caught on to the Australians … when I was last in Paris, I saw friand moulds sold in quite a few places alongside the other cake tins. I’ve been looking for a friand tin for many years in the uk – and finally found a gorgeous heavy duty non stick one last Saturday in Steamer Trading. Melt the butter in a small saucepan until it turns a pale golden colour, but be careful not to let it burn. Friands are similar to the French financiers and are made with ground almonds and egg whites for a light and fluffy cake. The MasterClass non-stick 12 Cup Friand Pan is a specialty tin designed for perfect friands every time.I think friands should actually have a rounded muffin top 😊 But I find that, if I add toppings to the friands, like raspberries or another fruit, the friands generally have a flat top.

I don’t think I “need” most of what I have in my kitchen and I am always reminding myself that it is a luxury to have anything more than a good knife and a wooden spoon.If you have a kitchenalia obsession, my guess is that you won’t stop until you find it 😉 Enjoy this recipe! Obviously every oven is different so use your judgement – as long as the skewer comes out clean, they are done. The friand moulds are about 125 ml (½ cup) in capacity and are deeper than the standard muffin mould.

And when you make them for the first time, however many times I tell you that the raw batter is the ugliest you will ever see, you will still panic that it shouldn’t look like that.

In France, they are sold in individual oval-shaped moulds which have either a star or diamond embossed at the bottom, but you can also find plain ones. These are perhaps one of the best friand recipes I’ve tried, but I could be biased because I happen to love anything with lemon. Mix 225 g (1 1/2 cup) icing sugar together with enough lemon juice until you have a soft, runny consistency. However, the French don’t know about the Australian friands, so you won’t find these cakes sold anywhere in France.At the time, it was one of the toughest decisions I had to make, not least because I couldn’t imagine how I could move for all of the personal possessions my twenty-something self had acquired.
