Since a cake bakes for a longer time, I haven't noticed any difference in bake times. However, it usually takes a few extra minutes for the first batch of cookies to bake.

thanks Holly!
 
You are welcome! Have a great show!
 
Hi there! Congratulations on making a cake for your show tonight! As for using your rectangular baker, the cooking time may vary slightly since stoneware tends to distribute heat differently. I would recommend checking the cake a few minutes earlier than the suggested cooking time and using a toothpick to test for doneness. If the cake needs more time, you can always put it back in the oven for a few extra minutes. I hope this helps and good luck with your show! TIA
