Baking tins
It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins.
Baking times are increased when light-coloured baking tins made
of thin metal or glass dishes are used, and cakes do not brown so
evenly.
If you wish to use silicone baking tins, use the information and
recipes provided by the manufacturer as a guide. Silicone baking
tins are often smaller than normal tins. The amount of mixture and
recipe instructions may differ.
Tables
The tables show the ideal type of heating for the various cakes
and pastries. The temperature and baking time depend on the
amount and composition of the mixture. This is why temperature
ranges are given in the tables. You should try the lower
temperature first, since a lower temperature results in more even
browning. You can increase the temperature next time if
necessary.
If you preheat the oven, the baking time is shortened by 5 to 10
minutes.
Additional information can be found in the
Baking tips
section
following the tables.
Bread and bread rolls
If not specified otherwise, always preheat the oven for baking
bread.
Never pour water directly into a hot oven.
