Why Use More Than One Pan For The One Cake?
Decorating By dittle Updated 7 Apr 2007 , 5:42pm by mom2seven
When I make a sponge, I pour the whole batter into one tin. I keep reading about people seperating the mixture into 2 or more tins. Why is that? why not bake one sponge and then cut layers. I don't have a huge collection of tins, definetley don't have more than one of each size. Is it worth buying more tins the same size so I can seperate my batter. I must admit my sponges don't turn out that great. I am still trying to make the Perfect cake!
I always use two tins as the cake takes less time to cook. I can tell easier if the cake is cooked. Only done a couple of cakes in one tin and did'nt like the end result, it was'nt cooked properly.
I would definately buy two of the same size tins. Would'nt make my cakes any other way and my customers always come back as never found a cake as good.
Hope this helps.
Well you need to put the proper amount of batter into each pan. Some people like 3 inch pans and some like the 2 inch pans. I prefer the 2 inch pans becasue you use more batter when you bake 2 of them, therefore your cakes will be taller.
i find there's a lot more waste when u bake in more than one pan...i prefer baking in one pan...i can fit more cakes into my oven, i only have to cut of the top of ONE cake to level, and i can get 3, 1-inch layers from one cake...
there is NO waste. -- well just my expanding waist! -- due to CAKE BALLS!
and in America, pretty much everyone is trying to get a 4inch tall layer -- 2 inch layers, torted and filled --
which again helps to explain our expanding waists!
too funny...and too true!
