About the tables
Notes
■ The times given apply to food placed in a cold oven.
■ The temperature and baking time depend on the consistency
and amount of the mixture. This is why temperature ranges
are given in the tables. Begin with the lower temperature and,
if necessary, use a higher setting the next time, since a lower
temperature results in more even browning.
■ Additional information can be found in the Baking tips section
following the tables.
■ Always place the cake tin in the centre of the lower wire rack.
