Cake Pan Conversions

1/21/2015

During the holidays we sometimes need to accommodate recipes for larger groups. It's always a challenge to figure out if I double the recipe what pan should I use.

Below is a chart that gives you the size of the pan along with the volume of the pan. If you have an unusual pan size and would like to figure out it's capacity, measure the amount of water it takes to fill the pan. Compare that measurement to the volumes in the chart below to determine how much batter you'll need.

The baking time may change using a different pan so it's important to keep an eye on your cake, and check for doneness. 
You never need to adjust the oven temperature you only need to adjust the baking time. For example, the same cake batter baked in a Bundt cake pan might take a full hour to bake, whereas cupcakes
might be done after only 20 minutes. You will still bake them both at the same oven temperature.


The cake should spring back when you touch the surface lightly with your finger if it's done. If it springs back, use a toothpick to be sure it's done. Insert a toothpick in the center of the cake and hold it there for a second before pulling it out. If a couple of crumbs stick to the toothpick, the cake is done; if you see a wet batter, add about five more minutes to your timer before checking your cake again.
