I baked my first 6x3 square and 2 6x2 rounds at my normal baking temp of 325. All came from the same batch of batter and were cooked together in the same oven/same time. The 2 rounds came out perfect, but the square was a total fail. The sides rose really fast, and although the center eventually cooked, it remained a good inch lower than the rest of the cake. By the time the middle was done, the sides were overdone. I've never had to use a heating core in a 6" pan, but then again, they were round pans. Is a heating core a necessity no matter the size of a square pan? Is a flower nail even tall enough to work in a 3" deep pan?
BTW, the pan is a magic line - very heavy duty. I have to say the corners turned out beautifully - too bad there's a giant crater in the middle!
