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.

Different kinds of cakes require different temperatures. Most cookbooks tell you what temp to use for each recipe. Same goes for cake mixes. The instructions on the box are way smarter than me.

You need to follow the recipe. Your oven should have all kinds of settings. Check the manual, you can find it online using google, with your make, model and manaul and you'll ge the .pdf file you can save to your computer.

helllo dis.... 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

The recipe is the one to follow, NOT stove. And always in center rack of oven. Too low burns underneath, too high burns top

350 is a good starting point. Some cakes require different temperatures. May I suggest that you read "The Cake Bible" for excellent instructions on temperature.

Begin by obtaining an oven thermometer. Check to see that the oven does reach the temperature you set it at. Check this a couple of times. If you see a serious difference between what you set and what you get, the heaating element may need to be replaced. Hope this helps you. good luck.
