Cakes and cookies
▯
We recommend dark pans of metal since these
absorb the heat better. Place the pan in the
middle of the wire rack.
▯
For sheet cakes without greaseproof paper, oil
the pan slightly.
▯
Small baked items such as cream puffs, cookies
or pastries can be baked on two levels, 1+3 or
2+4.
▯
If you bake on several levels it is normal that the
trays are not done at the same time. Leave the
lower trays bake a little longer or put them in the
oven earlier the next time.
▯
Before cutting, let the baked goods cool on a
rack.
▯
If the baked goods are too dark on the bottom:
insert one level higher, select a lower
temperature.
If the baked goods are too dark on the top: insert
one level lower, select a lower temperature, and
extend the baking time a bit.
▯
If the cake is too dry, set the temperature a little
higher. If the cake is not cooked on the inside, set
the temperature a little lower.
Baking times cannot be shortened by selecting a
higher temperature; it is better to select a
somewhat lower temperature.
▯
If the cake collapses: use less liquid or set the
temperature 50°F (10 °C) lower. Do not open the
oven door too soon.
▯
The cake rises only in the middle: grease the
edges of the pan.
▯
If the cookies are hard to take off the sheet, insert
the sheet in the hot oven again and remove the
cookies while they are still warm.
▯
If the cake does not come out of the pan when
yhou turn it over, use a knife to loosen the cake
around the edges. Turn the cake pan upside down
again and cover it several times with a cold, wet
cloth. Next time, grease the pan well and sprinkle
some bread crumbs into it.
▯
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for
pre-cooked and frozen products.
