8.1. Guidelines for baking
□ The material of your baking tins also plays a role in baking. Dark baking tins, which transmit heat direct
to food being cooked, are ideal.
□ Baking times may differ slightly due to differences in the type of ingredients used. Testing your cake
towards the end of the cooking time with a wooden skewer is ideal. If no dough sticks to the skewer,
the cake will be ready.
□ When cakes with a moist fruit topping are being baked, the development of humidity is particularly high.
Never bake more than two of this kind of cake at the same time.
□ If you are baking several cakes in baking tins at the same time, add about 5 to -10 minutes for each
additional tray used.
