My pound cake recipe calls for the cake batter to be put in a cold oven to start baking. Have done this many times but now after 5 minutes the top of the batter is almost burnt and the temperature se
My husband baked biscuits yesterday and started in a cold oven and they seemed to bake ok. I need to bake a cake today and afraid of what the oven will do. Also on full broil when toasting 8 pieces of bread only the toast in the middle gets brown. On each side the toast is not brown at all.
A separate oven thermometer is absolutely necessary in baking. Something similar to this would be cheap and easy. http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=10161738

You have them too close to the burners. Either move to another rack or move the rack. If you are baking a cake from batter try putting it in the center of the oven with a baking sheet under it to catch any drippings.
Decide what kind of cake you want to bake. Get a recipe for the ingredients. Go buy the ingredients That's the stuff you make it out of. Follow the recipe. Make sure your oven is to proper temperature and set the timer. There are a lot of good recipes out there. You need the proper pans to cook it in as well.

There are many things that can cause cakes to fall in the middle.... Jumping, etc., around the baking area is unlikely to be a problem except with very delicate sponge or angel food cakes. More likely, cakes fall when the crust appears to be done, but the batter is not baked through the middle. An uneven baking temperature is a frequent culprit; check the temperature of your oven with a separate baking thermometer, and be certain that your oven holds a steady heat through the entire baking period. Some older ovens preheat properly, then cycle off and drop the temperature after 15 or 20 minutes, which causes the uncooked portion of the cake to fall.
Less likely but possible problems could be inaccurate proportions of baking powder or baking soda if the cake is made from scratch. This could occur with cake mixes if sour milk or buttermilk is used instead of regular milk; the additional acid in sour milk requires additional baking soda to rise properly. Eggs that are not beaten properly, or perhaps beaten too much for the type of cake being made, might also cause problems. Joe
Electric ovens are always different from gas ovens. You have to set the temperature on average 10-15 degrees lower and watch out 15 minutes earlier if you are baking cakes, 5 mins for cookies etc. Always bake in the centre of the oven. use a metal bowl of water in another tray which may help balance out the temperature
