Baking tables for the lower burner in the gas oven
In the tables, you will find the optimum types of heating for a
selection of cakes and gateaux. The temperature and cooking
times depend on the quantity and consistency of the dough.
The values in the table apply to dishes placed into the cooking
compartment when it is cold and empty.
The heat is distributed in the oven as soon as the gas escaping
from the lower gas burner is ignited. For this reason, the
underside of food is usually more browned than the top.

You wish to bake according to your own
recipe.
Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
How to tell whether sponge cake is
baked through:
Approx. 10 minutes before the end of the baking time stated in the recipe, insert a cock-
tail stick into the cake at its deepest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake
is ready.
The cake collapses. Next time, add less liquid. Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the middle but is
lower around the edge.
Do not grease the edge of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake care-
fully with a knife.
The cake is too dry. Make tiny holes in the finished cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an
alcoholic drink over it. Next time, reduce the baking time.
The bottom of a fruit cake is too light. Place the cake one level lower the next time.
The fruit juice overflows. Next time, use the deeper universal pan (if available).
The pieces of dough are sticking
together when the yeast rolls are baked.
There must be a distance of about 2 cm between the bread rolls. This gives enough
space for the bread rolls to expand and bake evenly on all sides.
Condensation forms when you bake
moist cakes.
Steam can form during baking, which escapes via the door. The steam may settle and
form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natu-
ral process.
