Tips on Baking
Tip
This is how to tell if your cake
is cooked through
Push a wooden skewer into the highest point of the
cake. When no more cake mixture sticks to the wood,
you can switch off the oven and utilise the residual
heat.
The cake collapses (is sticky,
not properly cooked through,
water marks)
Check your recipe. Next time use less liquid. Observe
mixing times, particularly when using kitchen appli-
ances.
The cake is too light Next time select a dark cake tin or place the cake one
level lower.
Cake with moist topping/
cake is not cooked through,
is unevenly browned
Next time bake at a lower temperature and increase
the cooking time.
