Some tips to make a cake rise:
1. Add leavening agents like baking powder and baking soda to the cake.
2. Ensure that ingredients like eggs and dairy are at room temperature.

4. Choosing the correct pan size is also important.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long to cool a cake before removing from pan?
It may vary depending on the type of cake, pan and kitchen temperature.
For most cakes, allow to cool about 25 to 30 minutes to ensure the cake doesn't fall apart.
After this initial cooling period, you can also run a knife along the edges of the cake to loosen it from the sides of the pan.
Can I use strawberries instead of mixed berries?
Yes you can. Don't forget to slice the strawberries and remove any excess liquid.
