Recommended settings for cakes and baked items.
The temperature and baking time depend on the con-
sistency and quantity of the dough. This is why temper-
ature ranges are given in the tables. Begin with the
lower temperature and, if necessary, use a higher set-
ting the next time. A lower temperature results in more
even browning.
Baking tips
We have compiled a few tips to help you achieve a

ant up to 250 °C.

How it works en
Tip
Leave a minimum clear-
ance of 2 cm around
each item to be baked.
This allows enough space
for the baked items to ex-
pand and brown on all
sides.
Push a cocktail stick into
the highest point on the
cake. If no dough sticks
to the wood, the cake is
ready.
Use similar items in the
baking tables as a guide.
¡ The bakeware must be
heat-resistant up to
250 °C.
¡ Cakes in this bake-
ware brown less.
¡ When using the mi-
crowave, the cooking
time is shorter than the
time shown in the
table.
