Advice on cake baking ware

The most commonly used type of baking ware is

black metal tins. If you are also going to use the

microwave, use glass, ceramic or plastic baking

ware. These must be able to withstand

temperatures up to 250ºC. If you use these types

of baking ware the cakes are not browned as

much.

Advice on how to bake cakes

Different amounts and types of pastry require

different temperatures and baking times. Try low

settings first of all and then, if necessary, use

higher temperatures next time. A lower

temperature will result in more uniform baking.

Always put the cake tray in the centre of the

turntable.

Baking suggestions

How to check if the cake is properly cooked

Start sticking a tooth pick in the highest part of the

cake 10 minutes before the end of the baking

time. When no dough sticks to the tooth pick the

cake is ready.

If the cake is very dark on the outside

Next time choose a lower temperature and let the

cake bake for a longer time.

If the cake is very dry

Make small holes in the cake with a tooth pick

after baking has finished. Then sprinkle the cake

with some fruit juice or alcoholic drink. Next time

increase the temperature by about 10º and reduce

the baking time.

If the cake does not come free when turned

Let the cake cool down for 5 to 10 minutes after

baking and it will come out of the tin more easily.

If the cake still does not come free run a knife

carefully around the edges. Next time grease the

cake tin well.

Advice on saving energy

When you are making more than one cake, it is

advisable to bake them in the oven one after the

other when the oven is still hot. This lets you

reduce the baking time for the second and later

cakes.

It is preferable to use dark coloured baking ware -

painted or enamelled black – since such baking

tins absorb heat better.

When dealing with long baking times, you can

switch the oven off 10 minutes before the end of

the time and make use of the residual heat to

complete the baking.
