Asked on 6 Sep 2018 by Suzie123
Hello Lindsey
for the classic christmas cake is the oven temprature set for a fan oven please, and if not what temprature should a fan oven be set at
would all of Delias recipes use the same oven ie fan or convection
thank you
Hello,
All of Delia’s recipes with an eclectic oven temperature have been tested in a conventional oven, using top and bottom heat.
If you have a fan oven, we advise that you should reduce the given temperature by 20 degrees.
However as the classic Christmas cake is baked on a lower shelf I would reduce it to 115 degrees.
I would have a peek at 3 hours.
Best wishes
Lindsey
thank you, thats a great help x
