Notes
- How to flip a Sheet Cake?
- If you want to flip a sheet cake out of the pan, I would suggest lining the baking pan with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment paper with a non-stick baking spray which makes the cake come out much easier.
- When the cake is finished baking, let it cool to room temperature. Once the cake has cooled, place a board or rack on the top of the pan and flip it over onto the board, dish, or rack. Carefully remove the parchment paper from the cake. Frost the cake with frosting and garnish it. Cut into squares to serve.
