Hello,
Half of the 20cm Christmas cake or a 2 egg mixture will fit in the Delia online loaf tin or a traditional style 2lb loaf tin measures approximately 19 x 12 x 9cm deep
Make sure the sides a well-protected with several layers brown paper and cover the top with a layer of parchment (so that it doesn’t touch the surface of the cake mixture).
Keep the oven temperature the same and have a peek after 1 hour in the oven to see how it’s doing.
Then every 15 to 30 minutes after that depending on how it’s looking.
Best wishes
Lindsey
