Quick Breads and Cakes
Layer cakes must be baked one layer at a time, or the
entire cake mix may be baked in a 16-cup fluted tube
dish. Prepare batter according to package, chart or recipe
directions.
Use dishes recommended iri chart or in recipes. Glass
dishes allow the bottom of the cakes to be checked for
doneness. When the product is removed from the oven,
visually check bottom.
If cake is to be inverted or removed from dish, such as
layer cakes or upside-down cake, grease sides of dish
and line bottom of 8" or 9" round or square dish with wax
paper.
If cake is to be served directly from the dish, grease
bottom of dish. Never flour cake dishes, fluted tube
dishes or muffin pans.
Cook second layer of 8" or 9” round or square cake
immediately after the first. The remaining batter can be
used for cupcakes.
Check during cooking. Different brands vary in
ingredients and density of batter; cooking times may be
slightly different than those given in chart.
After cooking;
Test for doneness. Check to rftake sure edges of cake
are dry and have begun to pull away from sides of dish,
and toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.
Let stand, uncovered, on a flat surface for 10 to 15
minutes. Stand time is important to allow cakes and
cupcakes to finish baking. Cakes and breads that are to
be inverted should be loosened from the sides of the dish.
Carefully turn out of dish. Remove wax paper from bottom
of cake. Store, covered, until ready to serve.
For best results, it is recommended to follow microwave
cooking instructions issued by the individual cake mix
manufacturers.
