Welcome 😊

Now my theory about the burnt cake . . . .

If you noticed the top of the cake was burnt. That means they had both the oven (below) & the griller (top) on at the same time.

Obviously the griller is a direct flame which burnt the top layer while the base & the middle was still uncooked (deciphering from the yellow liquid batter oozing on the side).

Maybe the blue team was being clever by turning on both the oven as well as the griller, so that the cake cooks faster due to heat from both the sides. [Mind you, that's a very dangerous thing, griller & oven on at the same time, as due to the accumulated extreme heat, the glass door can & does explode!]

So they covered the top with foil & proceeded with baking, but I'm guessing the griller was still on as they smelt the same cake burning again. Yet again, we could see the batter oozing from one side.

The oven, a covered flame beneath the pan, is used to bake or cook foods through and through & takes some time. Whereas the griller has an open flame for direct flame cooking (tandoori chicken, turning over & over) or quick grilling (pizza cheese melting).

That's the only reason I can think of for the cake top burning. Never had that happen to any of my cakes through all the years I've been baking.

{This is all guesswork based on my baking experience. Sorry if this sounds like a lecture 😳}

@ Queen - Actually, more than cooking, I love baking. No innovations yet, but I can say I'm an expert baker. Cakes, cookies, biscuits, you name it I make it - from scratch or using mixes. Have even made cookies using a cake mix 😊

No, it's only when both oven & griller are turned on that the risk begins.

Also, forgot to add, the door needs to be kept slightly open while using the griller.

Sure, will go thru my books for any eggless recipes.
