Oranj May 2020 8:12pm, 15 May 2020 2,002 posts	0 Oranj @sallykate I mostly use a large plastic box to store cakes/carry them to work, although I've got an old Roses tin too. It is ENORMOUS compared to more modern offerings. (Just checked - it says 2.2kg of chocolate on the contents list ). I also have a couple of old square biscuit assortment tins, which are great for traybakes and cupcakes.

Jenelopy May 2020 11:11pm, 15 May 2020 606 posts	0 Jenelopy We use plastic boxes too, or else put the cake on a plate, put the round edge bit form the baking tin round it, and put a plate on top. Do you find things sweat more in plastic boxes, as they are more airtight? The reason I ask, is that twice we've had our Christmas cake get mouldy between baking it in late October and eating it at Christmas. I've guessed a combination of factors, plastic box, it being summer here, not having cooled it as well as I thought, and not feeding it with alcohol (I prefer it without).
