Hi and welcome back to my kitchen. One question I get asked a lot is how to convert your cake recipes for different size cake tins. Maybe you have a recipe that tells you to use a 6 inch tin, but all you have at home is an 8 inch tin. Maybe you want to make a slightly larger or smaller cake depending on the amount of people you need to feed, or maybe you want to scale up your cake recipe for a tiered cake.
This week I'm going to go through exactly how to work out how much ingredients you will need for any size cake tin.
I really hope you enjoy the tutorial and you'll be able to use it to make your own giant cupcake cake. Thank you so much for watching and don't forget to subscribe for more cake decorating tutorials!

340g Self Raising Flour, 340g Butter, 340g Caster Sugar, 4 eggs & 2tbsp Vanilla Essence / Flavouring
It was baked at 180 degrees Celsius for 45 minutes
For the 8 inch cake I used:
612g Self Raising Flour, 612g Butter, 612g Caster Sugar, 7 eggs & 3.6 tbsp Vanilla Essence / Flavouring

The King Arthur Baking site had a good tip to prevent your edges from getting overdone. You moisten paper towels and fold them lengthwise to match the pan’s height. You wrap them around the edges and keep in place with aluminum foil. No change of oven temperature is necessary. Sandra Bullock’s sister made the video. Just another idea. Good baking.
I like your quality explanation so much. You really know how many people needed that clear information. Surely no one is going wrong after your clip video. Thanks.
Oh my god you have saved me so much time!! I wish I had found your channel last year when I was stood crying in the kitchen with the wrong size cake tins the day before my sons birthday!! Thank you xx
You are amazing! I’ve spent literally days looking for someone to explain this in a way I can understand but to no avail… until now! 🎉
Wow.. this is what I struggle with the most... Thank you Lynz

Can you please tell me if I have 10x2 inch cake recipe and I want to concert 10 x 4 inch pan
Thank you so much for this cake conversion, wish I had seen it early when I had to make a bigger cake for a birthday. I think I made about three cakes before I was happy with the result. You’re a star ⭐️🌟⭐️
For the 8 inch how many minutes did you bake yea? And how many grams did you divide the batter into 2 tins?
You recipes are my go too! Thank you so much as I’ve been struggling with bigger sizes recipes. Appreciate this channel so much. Blessings to you
Oh my goodness! I have never baked a cake in my life and I said to myself “somebody as geeky as me must have solved this” There you go😆 Thanks so much
Ohhh!!! The Converter chart is so useful! Today I´m gonna bake the original 340gr recipe! Thanks Lynz!♥
I've been messing up my recipes terribly, I've always made much less batter than I need. Thank you for this video. I look forward to my future baking
This is going to be so useful, thank you, brilliant xx

Hi Emma, Thats brilliant to hear you were able to use the conversion to give you the perfect 8 inch cake. I'm so glad you found it useful x
@@CakesbyLynz 🥰 it really was fab, and the chart made it so easy...... I've already converted some of my recipes into 8 and 10 inch sponges and can't wait to try them. By far one of the most helpful tutorials I've ever come across 💕
What if the difference between the 8inch and 10 is 1.557. Am I rounding that up to 1.6 or leaving it as is?
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!! I love my 4inch spring forms....u r a wonderful teacher.

Fabulous, I finally understood it! So I'm going from 2 × 6" rounds to 2 × 8" rounds (already worked out for us). Thank you Lynz, I'm going to post my comments here after I've made them!
How did it go??
@@francescahutchinson2350 fantabulous!! Thank you for asking x
Lynz you really are amazing thanks you a million times, because I can't convert I usually stick to the cake size in a recipe.
This week however I need a large oblong tin for the coronation our get together I think I understand now how much mixture I need, thank you again hun have a good day hugs xxxx
Very informative and very well explained.....thanks a lot. But just 1 question , how to adjust baking powder and baking soda, as they are always in teaspoon measurements?
convert the teaspoon measurements into grams, to make it easier. you can do this online on google
This has helped me so much! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise!
You are an amazing person❤❤ explain every single bit of information very clearly and an interesting manner. And providing this is kind of very useful for everyone who like bakings. Thank you again. With lots of love from SL❤😘🇱🇰

I'm so glad this helps. It's probably the question I get asked the most about so thought it deserved its own video.
Thanks a lot for these fantastic new tips Lynz, they are very helpful indeed, 👍😍, even though there's a little bit of maths in there, but nevermind, thank you! 😉😘❤
Your posts are always refreshing. Needed this tip. Thank you. ❤🤩
Your an absolute star🤩 ive always struggled with this. Thank you

Wow thank you. Will come in handy. What about rectangular cake tin conversions from round cake recipe? Could you teach us that please xx thank you 😘
Hi June, I am so glad its helpful. In regards to the rectangular cake tin it is actually exactly the same process. You just need to work out the surface area of the rectangular tin and use this as the number for your new tin.
Thank you Lynz. You just saved me some time. Thanks for always eager to share. Stay blessed.
Thanks so much for this video, it was exactly what I was looking for and your advice about the eggs is so appreciated. Cheers!

The video is fantastic!! Thank you for figuring this out and sharing it. If I want to convert a recipe from a round 8" pan to a round 8" heart shaped pan, would I use a conversion number about halfway between round and square?
Thanks for this it really helps ❤

So helpful thank you! If you don’t mind me asking, what butter do you use? I’ve been struggling to find a butter that works well for my cakes, thanks in advance!
Hiya. Loves your vdo is easy to watch. I'm planing to bake cake for my boy's birthday with your vanilla cake recipe so i have to adjust your recipe to 8". now my question is do I need to multiply 1.8 to the buttercream recipe too? Thank you 😚
Your cake conversion is really helpful. I have learnt so much from you videos, even my grandchildren use your recipes.I wonder if you could help me please. I have a recipe for an 8" round chocolate cake and I which I would like to use the same recipe for a 9" square cake. Can your conversion chart be used in the same way, if using different shaped tins. Thank you for all your great recipes and videos :) x
So handy ! Thanks 😊
Would you be able to do a butter cream conversion?? Meaning how much buttercream would be needed to fill and COVER each sized cake
