Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

How do I calculate baking time for moist chocolate cake. I just need to make an 8″ x 3″ size, how long do I bake for at 150 C please?

Hi alcalder5

I’ve baked it for 1hr 40mins in my new oven. In my previous oven, it did take the full 2 hrs. It really depends on your own oven. I always place a tray on the shelf above to protect the surface of the cake from burning. The recipe is very high in sugar which can burn. Please take a peek at the comments in the popular questions header on the right. You’ll find many comments and reviews from other members.

Please post back if you need more information and also your feedback will be most welcome.
