Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, stick
a cocktail stick into the cake at the highest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean,
the cake is ready.
Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the
specified mixing times in the recipe.
Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake care-
fully with a knife.
Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little
longer.
When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit
juice or an alcoholic beverage over it. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher
and reduce the baking time.
Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature. For
cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs
and then place the topping on top. Please follow the recipe and baking times.
Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more evenly. Bake
delicate pastries on one level using
paper can affect the air circulation. For this reason, always cut greaseproof paper to fit
the baking tray.
Place the cake one level lower the next time.
Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one.
