BAKING GENERAL

Uneven rising of cakes

Ensure that the oven shelves are level.

Sinking of cakes

The following may cause cakes to sink:

1. Pre-heating of fan ovens ­ not always necessary.

2. Cooking at too high a temperature ­ reduce

standard temperatures by 25°C for fan ovens.

3. Using normal creaming method with a soft marga-

rine. If using soft margarine, use an all in one method

instead of the traditional creaming of the margarine

and sugar. Remember when using a food mixer or

processor not to over-cream soft margarine.

Over/undercooking

Refer to the cooking times and temperatures given

in the Oven Temperature Charts provided, however,

it may be necessary to increase or decrease

temperatures by 10°C to suit personal taste.
