Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Hi,

Did you use a fan assisted oven at 150 degrees for the chocolate cake ??

hi, fan assisted ovens need to be turned down to 130. Have you had a look at other questions to do with Paul’s choc cake? If not have a look to your right in popular questions and click on ” Paul’s moist chocolate cake my feed back.

Hi mbe

As Michelle has pointed out, temperature on fan ovens should be reduced. As a rule it should be by 20 degrees, but since not all ovens are the same it would be wise to consult your oven hand book and see what the manufacturer recommends. Some members have had temperature issues. I originally baked up on 130c but experimented with 135c and got a better result. Just a gentle reminder, please remember the recipe asks for large eggs. Good luck with your bake.
