Labelling cake tins or cutlery you have loaned.

That’s a good idea Kitty Typex😃
Tut tut and her a Vicar’s wife too!

Would typex work on black tins?

Why do people do this? I lent the vicar's wife a stairgate 'for the weekend'. They have since moved - along with my stairgate.

I don’t know about labels but can you bake the cakes in paper tin liners and just take that to the cafe?

I write on the base of my tins with black permanent marker - it lasts ages. I sometimes write the size on too.
I don't think I would loan cutlery unless it was some I didn't mind losing.

My cake tins are all black, so that wouldn’t work, but wonder if there’s a white marker?

The best solution would be to turn the cake or loaf out of the tin, then wrap it up in greaseproof paper.

Or am I missing something here?

Neither a borrower nor a lender be!
I can’t think of any way to label a cake tin that unfortunately, I have sticky labelled crockery and trays but nothing that goes into an oven or cutlery.
Tell your friend that 50% of your cutlery is missing.
