Please help me. Thanks Joann Baker baker sadie 07-14-2005 @ 6:59 AM                                 Member Posts: 4 Joined: Mar. 04 more info  I just saw this and can't answer why the cakes dome and slope, but one way to prevent this from happening is to lower the oven temperature to 325°.  Most layer cakes call for a 350° oven, but I've found that lowering the temperature and baking for an extra 5 minutes or so ensures that the layers are moist and even. joann 07-14-2005 @ 4:24 PM                                 Member Posts: 15 Joined: Mar. 05 more info  Thanks for the reply.  I'll pass this along to my friend tomorrow. Sincerely, Joann baker
