Growing up in England I remember using a cake tin for things like rock
cakes and even mince tarts. THe major difference between those pans and
the ones available in the US were the fact that the openings were a sort
of hemi sphere.. more like a shallow depression than a full hemisphere
(a demi Hemi?) I remember one with 6 spaces and the other with 12. It
isn't an ebelskiver or other cast iron pan. It was made out of sheet
metal .. same type of thickness/weight as a NA muffin tin.

Can any UK list members/readers identify these pans or even a source?

Thanks & seasons greetings....

This is really spooky. I am English, living in the US, and have
searched for those pans for literally years. Just about 10 days ago I
received the following after a long search. Unfortunately, try as hard
as I have, I can't get the links to the point where you can click on
them - you'll need to type the information in, bit by bit:


Dear Dora

Many thanks for your email, please see attached link, all of these trays
should be suitable for you. The cost of sending one to the USA varies
from
£7.00 to £12.00 postage depending on which one you order.

With regard to the links I sent you, check out the last one (the bun
tray). That's the one I've been searching for.

Clicking worked fine with my newsreader, Dora. Interesting pans.

Good, Barb. They finally opened for me - I'm having real problems with
opening links, then when I return to them they *sometimes* open fine.
Darned computer.
Yes - I was delighted to find the pans - now I just have to order from
the UK. I've been searching for the third one for years - great for
little tartlets and mince pies.
