How can I test my cake for doneness?

Cake testing

If you need to test your cake for doneness, but you're out of toothpicks, just use an uncooked piece of spaghetti.

Spaghetti also comes in handy if you want to light a candle in a deep jar...just light the end of the spaghetti and you can reach the wick with ease, no burnt fingers!
