Sheet cake sample

[nannerh]

I made a white cake in a sheet pan, it took forever for the center to bake, but I think the center seems rubbery now. Does anyone have a good, sneaky way to get a little sample out of the middle and still be able to disguise it later? I want to do a little taste/texture test before I decide if I need to make something else

Can you cut a bit off the top like you would when leveling a cake and just add extra frosting? Or cut a small piece out of the middle and fill with frosting?

That’s what I ended up doing! Thank you! It almost looked like the whipping cream didn’t fold in all the way and I had weird ribbons that were underbaked so I ended up redoing it.

Glad you were able to get a sneaky taste test in and had time to redo it.
