Baked it at 180 C for 40mins, i did insert the tooth pick and it came out clean...pattern was exactly the same....but when i took it out from the oven it was a bit dark in colour than the picture on this webpage. Also, when it cooled down so i cut the cake into pieces...what i found was it has a bit greyyish area from the front of the triangle piece.....so half the cake was eatable and little bit rubbery in texture where it was grey inside? I really dont know what could be the reason? Where i went wrong?Is it the oven? Or i should hv lower the temperature to 150C instead and baked it for like 50mins??Coz the Outer crust is darker than the picture u shared. Pls help me coz i want to try it again...the part from where its cooked nicely and soft...it tastes really nice. PLS HELP Hi Feride,

Now that I'm back in India, I'm planning to buy a new oven. Could you suggest anything that I should keep in mind while getting an oven? Also, would you recommend a conventional/convection oven?

I didn't have an 9" pan so reduced the quantities & used a 8 " one instead. It worked really well & the cake was lovely and moist. I'll definitely make it again. Looks very impressive too. Thanks for sharing & giving such clear instructions for us to follow. Made this cake the other day. I didn’t have an 9″ pan so reduced the quantities & used a 8 ” one instead.

Pattern came out very well, but the cake did not rise. I actually get confused so please help me on 1) deciding when to stop beating 2) mixing of dry ingrediants with beaten egg. I think thats where I got it wrong Dear Feride,
