Asked on 14 Jan 2020 by RenatePeter
I have now made Delia's Dundee Cake three times, each time it has over risen in the middle and broken up so I don't get a regular pattern of almonds. I have downloaded the 'Traditional Dundee Cake' recipe from Delia's Cakes and this third time have slightly reduced the quantity of baking powder, to no avail.
Can you suggest anything?
Hello,
Ours rises quite high too and sometimes cracks a little and falls back a bit as it cools. I presume you are using plain flour with the baking powder. Could your oven be hotter or are your using a fan setting?
Best wishes
