The tinypic url leads to a very small pic.

Hence, the name \"tinypic\", right?

the tinypic image can be resized,
remember Funz pic of the \"HUGE CRAB\"...... :lol:
so better do a preview when using tinypic.com

yummy yummy :drool:
so u cooked the custard first and fill them up , i see....

i had juz baked one similar to yrs, (also my 1 st attempt)
but i poured the watery custard into the pie tart to bake.
but i dun like this way of doing,
becos it almost burnt my hands when i brought the tray back to the oven. (as i was taking care not to spill the watery egg cuatard)

Yup, when uploading your pics to tinypic you can choose the resolution that you want to upload.

One way to deal with frosting a round cake - or for any cake for that matter - is to get a turntable/lazy Susan. I bought a lazy Susan from IKEA which serves my needs pefectly.

I bought it a few years ago when I began my baking journey for about $20, but it's now only $9.90:

The lazy Susan helps a lot to smooth out the top of the cake. Spin it while holding the spatula to smooth the top out. Likewise for the sides. I even bought those triangle shapes with teeth to make lines on the sides of my cake like this:

Do you know where we can buy a glass lazy susan and how much it will cost?
I saw an ad of a refrigerator on TV recently which showed, like it had glass lazy suzan inside the fridge. I don't want to replace my fridge, just install a glass LS in it.

I've not encountered a glass lazy susan, but you might wish to call up some glass manufacturers or glasswork factories. They might be able to make one for you.
