Baked items
▯
We recommend using dark-coloured metal baking
tins as these absorb heat more effectively. Place
the baking tin in the centre of the wire rack.
▯
If you are baking tray bakes without greaseproof
paper, lightly grease the baking tray beforehand.
▯
Small baked items, e.g. cream puffs, biscuits and
puff pastry parcels, can be baked on two levels, 1+3
or 2+4.
▯
If you are baking on more than one level, it is normal
for food on baking trays placed in the oven at the
same time to be ready at different times. Leave the
food on the baking trays lower down in the oven to
cook for a little longer, or place them in the
appliance earlier next time.
▯
Before cutting the baked items, leave them to cool
on a wire rack.
▯
If the baked items are too dark on the bottom, place
them a level up and select a lower temperature.
If the baked items are too dark on the top, place
them a level down, select a lower temperature and
extend the baking time a little.
▯
If the cake is too dry, set the temperature a little
higher. If the cake remains uncooked in the middle,
set a lower temperature.
Baking times cannot be reduced by setting a higher
temperature; it is better to set the temperature a
little lower.
▯
If the cake collapses, use less liquid or set the
temperature 10 °C lower. Do not open the oven
door too soon.
▯
If the cake only rises in the middle, grease the sides
of the baking tin.
▯
Do not remove the biscuits from the baking tray;
place the baking tray back into the hot oven for a
short period and remove the biscuits whilst they are
still hot.
▯
If the cake does not come away from the tin when
you are trying to turn it out, carefully slide a knife
around the sides to loosen it. Turn the cake tin
upside down again and cover it several times with a
cold, wet cloth. Next time, grease the tin well and
sprinkle some bread crumbs into it.
▯
In addition, always follow the manufacturer's
instructions for pre-baked and frozen products.
