Default Remember a round bread loaf from the 70s or 80s?

I agree with the least expensive round/cylinder using an ordinary aluminum can, several sizes available makes great breads/cakes perfect for GIFT-Giving, use wax-paper, grosgrain ribbon, homemade tag, even a paper-bag is delightful. Hope you try it! alovelyV On Tuesday, April 24, 2018 at 8:07:01 AM UTC-5, Ophelia wrote:
