FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long does it take to bake a cake?
The baking time for a cake can vary significantly based on several factors, such as the type of cake, oven, recipe or pan size.
Most cakes can take anywhere from 25 to 60 minutes to bake at 180ºC (350ºF). However, some recipes may require higher or lower temperatures.
Always preheat your oven and don't forget to check if your cake is done using methods such as the toothpick test or gently pressing the cake's center to ensure it's fully baked.
