This way you can see if
the sponge cake is baked
through.
The cake falls apart.
The cake has risen high in
the middle but not on the
edge.
The cake is too dark on the
top.
The cake is too dark on the
bottom.
The cake is too light at the
bottom.
You wish to bake in
light coloured tins.
The cake is too dry.
The bread or cake
(e.g. cheesecake) looks
good, but is soggy inside
(runny and uncooked).
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the
baking time specified in the cooking instructions,
pierce the highest part of the cake using a wooden
skewer. The cake is ready if no mixture sticks to the
skewer.
Next time, use less liquid or decrease the oven
temperature by 10 degrees. Follow the stirring times
in the cooking instructions.
Do not grease the edge of the spring form.
After baking, carefully loosen the cake using a knife.
Insert it on a lower level, select a lower temperature
and bake the cake for a little longer.
Insert it on a higher level and select a lower
temperature next time.
Insert it on a lower level or use intensive heat W next
time.
Light coloured tins are less suitable for baking,
as they tend to reflect the heat.
When baking pastries which require considerable
bottom heat, it is best to use the intensive heat setting
W. For other pastries, such as sponge cakes, 3D Hot
air T can also be selected. The baking time will be
prolonged, however.
Use a skewer to pierce small holes in the baked cake.
Then trickle the fruit juice or liqueur over the cake.
Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher
and shorten the baking times.
Next time, use a little less liquid and bake for a little
longer but at a lower temperature. When preparing
cakes with soft toppings, bake the cake base first,
then sprinkle almonds or breadcrumbs onto it and
finally add the topping. Please follow the cooking
instructions and baking times.
