These mini cakes of pina colada or mini bundt cakes of coconut and pineapple were be all a success. I had of buy this precious mold of NordicWare. You know that I love this brand because besides having designs more beautiful of the market, are of very good quality and I is not never stick.
Is truth that there is that know use them and above all know unmold them, but once you shopping one, is become addictive and already them like have all. They have two problems. The first and worst is that they occupy much space. I have friends that them have hung of the wall forming a mural precious, but I in my kitchen have only a cachito of wall with a shelf, and the rest is wall of glass, so that option is in my case unviable.
So I have finished having a Cabinet of the kitchen only for these molds. Whenever it see me seems a waste of space, but only need baking a new sponge cake, as these mini biscuits of pineapple colada or mini bundt cakes of coconut and pineapple, to thank have them. For example, take them of gift or as snack to any site is always a smash hit, and is that although do the recipe more easy and simple of the world, in these molds luce the triple.
The other but they have is the price, and are rather expensive. So I what I do is not to stop using them and so I get them much party. My friends and I have spoken many times of exchange them from time to time, thus not would have to buy them all. The problem? That live to hundreds of kilometers and everything is complicated. Moral: them ask as whim for my birthday or my holy and thus can go having at least one new each year.
I have several models, some have seen them already on the blog, and others will see them prontito, but I love everyone, and now that it returns to the era in which feel like snacking something warm with a good piece of cake again to use them over and over again.
