In reply to Ashley. Hi Ashley! No, if you're using three pans instead of two you will need to reduce the baking time unless you 1.5x the recipe.

Haven’t actually made it yet but I have 3 8 inch pans, would I cook it for the same amount of time?

In reply to Jackie. Hi Jackie! I would use one 9x13 pan. You may need to adjust the baking time.

I’m making my dad this cake I was wondering if it okay if I used two 9 by 13 because my grandma can’t find two 8 inch pans.

In reply to Emmy. Hi Emmy! It sounds like it was either overbaked or too much flour was used. You can save dry cakes by using simple syrup on the layers.

In reply to Nicola. Hi Nicola! Technically it would work but I don't recommend it. The baking time would be really long and it would cause the edges of the cake to dry out.

I have an 8×4” deep cake tin.

Would this still work instead of the 2 seperate tins?
How long would the cook time be?
