Handy hints for optimum results.
• It is normal for cakes to rise only 1/2 way up the bread pan. The texture should be nice and light.
• Due to the high sugar and fat content in cakes, we suggest you always use the Light crust colour
setting to prevent the side from burning.
• Avoid using double quantities of cake mix, the larger cake will not cook through and be dense in
texture in the breadmaker.
• We recommend the use of packet cake mixes, available from all supermarkets.
• Allow the cake to cool in the bread pan for at least 10 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
• Loosen the sides with a plastic spatula and gently slide out.
Do not use Time Delay Setting when baking the cakes as the ingredients will spoil.
