Is this a convection oven this are baked in? If we have the convection option on our ovens, should we be using that?
Hello All.
Can anyone point me in the direction of where I can make this cake bigger or smaller. Eg a 9 or 11inch square cake

What is the difference between a Madeira cake and a vanilla sponge cake?
fahrenheit or calculus
An instructive video marred by moronic background music.

If I am to make a chocolate version of this, how much cocoa powder should be added into this recipe and will the amount of flour stay the same?
Can i use all purpose flour and magarine?
You are the best
To create self-raising flour from plain flour – for 150g/1 cup plain flour use half-teaspoon baking powder and half-teaspoon of bicarbonate soda (also known as baking soda).
Castor sugar or superfine sugar is frequently used in British baking. It melts and incorporates quicker than regular granulated sugar – in Canada it is often labeled Super-FIne Sugar. If you don't have any just pulse regular sugar in a food processor/blender until fine – not powdery!
Do you take it out of the pans right away after taking them out of the oven?
Does anyone know if this is 170 degrees fan or normal oven? Thank you!
