And what about liquid on the outside of the cake pan? Have you ever cooked a baked cheesecake in a ‘bath’ of water, bain marie-style? If the answer’s yes, then you’ll no doubt have wrapped the outside of the cake pan in a couple of layers of foil so the water couldn’t make its way inside and ruin your cheesecake mix.

The collar has no seams to leave unattractive lines in your cheesecakes, and the baked goods are released easily with perfect edges. Evenly baked results Firstly, you need to measure the volume of the tin you wish to use. Do this by placing the tin on a set of scales and pouring water into it until it is full. Make a note of the weight of water. If it weighs 1.5kg, then you will know that the volume is 1.5 litres.So why would you need a 100% watertight, loose-based cake tin? Firstly, let’s talk about putting things into the tin.
