- If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking pan, you can use a 10x15 inch baking pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
- To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
- For a neater appearance, use a piping bag to frost the cake.

- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
