Tips for using Cake Pans & Tins

• Preparation: Always prepare your pan properly to ensure the best results. Grease the pan and line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
• Filling: Don’t overfill your pan. Most recipes recommend filling the pan about two-thirds full to allow room for the cake to rise.
• Follow the recipe's baking temperature and preheat your oven before putting the cake in for best results.
• Cooling: Allow your cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps prevent the cake from breaking apart.
