Happy Friday All! I'm going to be making a birthday cake for a friends mother this weekend. She wants it to be a 1/2 sheet cake...no problem. 1/2 of it is to be white cake & 1/2 is to be carrot cake. I've never had this type of request before. My question is should I bake these both in the pan together or bake two seperate 10" square cakes and "glue" them together with frosting or something? The bake times for the two different cakes is off by about 5 minutes but the temp is the same. I just don't want to give someone an over or under baked cake icon_sad.gif . Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks ya'll!

For that little difference in time I would make a cardboard separater and cover in foil and just bake them both together in the same cakepan.I always hate piecing to cakes together because if there is any shifting etc...you see the seam.An extra 5 or so minutes on any cake won't hurt it!!
