Baking A Cake In A Ceramic Cake Pan

Hey all i recently failed terribly at making heart shaped cakes for a cake decorating class.

Baking a cake in a ceramic cake pan. I butter whatever baking dish i use. I baked 8 ramekins at the set temp which was 350 for about 35 minutes. It s a tradition in our family and one i ve foisted upon some friends so i make their cakes too. Don t allow the baking pans to touch each other or the walls of the oven.

What is the difference of temp time or both. It was a box cake mix. We have a family tradition of celebrating half birthdays. I find that it keeps the cake from bulging in the pan.

This will ensure that you don t overbake whatever s in the oven. My little cakes were heavy and inedible but they looked pretty. Bake the cake according to its directions but add five minutes to the baking time to allow for the ceramic baker s slow transmission of heat. Shiny metal pans and dark metal pans cook differently.

Turn the oven down 25 f when using a dark metal pan.

There are two rules of thumb when baking with darker pans. Lining the bottom with parchment can help your cake release from the pan more easily.

It works very well to keep the cake from sticking to the pan. In general when it comes to cakes a lighter pan promotes more even baking. I use mine quite a bit. Second check for doneness 10 to 15 minutes before the recipe instructs you to do so.

The ceramic coated pans released the cake with a simple wiggle while that old school nonstick one required a go round with a sharp knife and still had a few chunks of cake stuck to the bottom of. I m uncertain of any difference in browning. Before baking i put the silicone loaf in a similarly sized metal loaf pan. Dark pans cook the outsides of the cake faster than the shiny ones do.

First decrease the baking temperature by 25 degrees. Know your pans and adjust accordingly. Metal bakeware can withstand higher temperatures than glass which makes it ideal for foods that bake for a short period of time at a higher temperature including baked goods such as cookies biscuits cakes muffins and breads metal baking pans are also preferred when browning foods and quick roasting since it tends to heat up quickly and also cool down relatively fast so actual sheet pan. I used to flour it but these days i use almond meal.
