AI just made Macsmom's Orange Dreamsickle cake and, well let me just say, it was something out of a cartoon!! 325 for 45 mins in, I decided to check doneness....opened the door and as soon as I did, FLOP!! WITH SOUND EFFECTS!! WTHeck!! Exactly the same EVERYTHING. Has this happened to anyone else and how did you solve it? :-(

never heard of such a thing!  Whoa... reminds me of those comic souffle flops

Sorry, wish I had a answer

AIkr! The middle just sank!! I researched it and found that apparently its common and there's an alternative....so hoping to use the original recipe.

I have 2 10" of that recipe in the oven right now.  It is my most requested cake. I have not ever had that problem. I do find it turns out better if you let your orange soda go flat

Wait...did you use the one with sherbet? Yeah that one doesn't work for a lot of people

I'm so sorry this happened and I wish I had an answer,  but do I ever understand.  Earlier this week I was making a coconut cake 325 for 45 min, toothpick comes out clean.  carefully put them on cooling racks and 5 minutes later I check and both cakes collapsed in the middle - completely.  They were big coconut donuts - LOL   Back to the drawing board :(

AThat happened to me too! I think I over filled the pans. I tried the same recipe with cupcakes and they were awesome.

coconut donuts sound good!

Yes, I did use the one with sherbert...the extra batter I use for cupcakes which turned out good...I don't understand, is it the sherbert?..what recipe are you using Batterup?

Check your inbox. I have been told they delete recipes from threads

I got it..thank you soo much!! I wonder why they would delete recipes...isn't that part of why we're here? I dunno. *** (shrugs)**:roll:

because you can't copyright cake designs (except trademarked cakes!) but recipes can be

ABtw, what kind of icing/filling do you use with it BatterupCake?

A

Oh, ok..I didn't know that! Lots to learn!:shock:

The learning never stops. Once it does it just gets boring!

AI see!:-)
