- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: A preheated oven will help the cake rise evenly. Make sure the oven is at the correct temperature before you put the cake in.
- Do not open the oven door during baking: Opening the oven door during baking can cause the cake to fall. Resist the temptation to peek at the cake until it is done baking.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting: Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
