Betty Crocker Tips – Leave Space for Cakes to Rise

Patience is a virtue, so try not to crowd the oven when you are baking as this will affect the baking time of the cakes. Give your tins plenty of room in the oven and try to cook just one large cake or one tray of cakes at a time. If you absolutely have to bake two trays at one time (because cake frenzies do happen!), make sure you switch the position of the trays halfway through the cooking time.
