Place the wooden mold frame on a baking tray lined with baking paper to prevent sticking. For taller cakes, stack two or three frames during baking to prevent the rising cake from touching the oven cover. Use in a preheated oven suitable for sponge cakes, monitoring baking time as per your recipe. Always ensure the frame is dry before use to maintain its quality.

After use, gently clean the wooden frame with a damp cloth and avoid soaking it in water to prevent warping. Dry thoroughly before storage in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to preserve the wood’s finish and longevity.
