Baking
1. Baking temperature is also the key to making cakes. The oven must be preheated before baking. In addition, the thickness of the cake base will also have requirements on baking temperature and time. If the cake is thick and large, the baking temperature should be lowered and the time should be extended accordingly; if the cake is thin and small, the baking temperature should be increased and the time should be shortened. Generally speaking, the furnace temperature for thick billets is 180°C for the upper heat and 150°C for the lower heat; the furnace temperature for the thin billets should be 200°C for the upper heat and 170°C for the lower heat. The appropriate baking time is 35 to 45 minutes.
2. You can test whether the cake is ripe by lightly pressing the surface with your fingers. If there are finger marks on the surface or the inside feels soft and floating, it is not yet ripe; if it feels elastic, it is ripe. After the cake comes out of the oven, it should be removed from the baking pan immediately, otherwise it will cause shrinkage.
Note:
1. Only blunt plastic or wooden utensils can be used to hold the cake. Do not use sharp or metal utensils to avoid damaging the non-stick surface.
