Tips & Methods
Baking Tips
- Preheat your oven to 325ºF.
- Grease the recommended pan and line it with parchment paper.
If using a Bundt pan, apply a baking spray made with flour. - For best results, weigh all ingredients and bring them to room temperature.
- Don’t open the oven door until the cake has set, unless the recipe instructs you to do so.
- Your cake is done when it begins to shrink from the sides of the pan, springs back when touched or when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Let your cake cool for 5-10 minutes before taking it out of the pan.
- Cooled plain cakes (without frosting or pastry cream) can be double-wrapped first in cling film, then in aluminum foil and refrigerated for up to a week or frozen for up to 3 months.
To defrost a frozen cake, simply place the wrapped cake in the refrigerator for 24 hours. - Store plain or glazed cakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or up to a week in the refrigerator.
- Store frosted cakes and cakes baked with pastry cream in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Olive Oil Cake Method
- Pre-heat your oven to 325ºF.
- Grease the recommended cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
If using a Bundt pan, apply a baking spray made with flour. - In a separate bowl, beat room temperature eggs at high speed for 3-5 minutes, then add mild extra virgin olive oil in a slow, steady drizzle until thick and creamy.
- Add remaining wet ingredients and the cake mix to the egg mixture and mix until combined, stopping to scrape down the bowl. Do not overmix.
- Gently mix stir ins into batter until well combined.
