Cooking Tips & Tricks

Be sure to use real mayonnaise, not salad dressing or light mayonnaise, for the best results.

- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth batter.

- Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a dense and tough cake.

- Use a toothpick to test for doneness - if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
