You can extend the baking time by 10 – 15
minutes if you bake cakes on more than one
shelf position.
Cakes and pastries at different heights do not
always brown equally. There is no need to
change the temperature setting if an unequal
browning occurs. The differences equalize
during baking.
Trays in the oven can distort during baking.
When the trays are cold again, the distortions
disappear.
Remedy
Put the cake on a lower shelf.
Next time set slightly lower oven tempera‐
ture.
Next time set a longer baking time and
lower oven temperature.
Next time set higher oven temperature.

perature.
