How to check that a sponge cake
is cooked properly.
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time
given in the recipe, pierce the tallest point of the cake with a
cocktail stick. The cake is done if the cocktail stick comes out
clean.
The cake collapses.
Next time, use less liquid or decrease the oven temperature by
10 degrees. Observe the cooking times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the centre
but is lower at the edges.
Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. As soon as
the cake is done, carefully loosen the cake around the edges
using a knife.
The cake is too dark at the top.
Insert it at a lower level in the oven, select a lower temperature
and cook the cake a little while longer.
The cake is too dry.
Use a toothpick to make small holes in the finished cake. Then
drizzle fruit juice or alcohol over the top. Next time you should
decrease the temperature by around 10 degrees and reduce the
baking times.
The bread or cake
(e.g. cheesecake) looks fine, but
is soggy on the inside (soft, with
watery areas).
Next time you should add a little less liquid and cook for a little
longer at a lower temperature. Cakes with fruit topping: Precook
the base first of all. Sprinkle with almonds or breadcrumbs and
then place the topping over this. Please observe the recipe and
the baking times.
