Baking in the oven
General notes
Place oblong tins in the oven as shown
in the illustration.
Deep-frozen products such as pizzas
should be placed on baking paper on
the rack.
Use the deeper roasting tray for moist
fruit cakes and multi-layer cakes, to
minimize splashes in the oven.
The Baking Chart gives sugges-
tions for temperature, runner height
and timing.
For even browning -
– in general select the middle tem-
perature.
Increasing the temperature and reduc-
ing the time can have an adverse ef-
fect on even browning.
– Select the runner height according
to the recipe and the setting chosen.
– Just before the end of baking time
test to see if the cake is done.
Insert a metal or wooden skewer into
the centre.
If it comes out clean, without dough
or crumbs sticking to it, the cake is
ready.
