You’re using the wrong size tin We’ve all been there. You find a cake recipe that sounds amazing, but you don’t have the right size tin.Think twice about using whatever you do have to hand. The size of the tin affects the cooking time and how thick or thin the sponge turns out.Too small and your cake might burn at the top or overflow out of the pan, while still being a raw mess in the middle.Choose one too big and it could end up a thin, dry pancake. Use the tin size stated in the recipe.
