Hello Lindsay, I wanted to make Delia's classic Christmas cake this year but in a 2lb loaf tin. Can you help with the amounts I should use to create this. Many thanks. Sally

Hello Sally,
I think basic recipe will fit in 2 x 2lb loaf tins, or you could make half in one tin.
Make sure the sides are very well-protected with several layers brown paper and cover the tops 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 ti/ they are doing.
Then every 15 to 30 minutes after that depending on how its/they are looking.
Best wishes
Lindsey
