They do look perfectly level. In addition to the cake strips, did you adjust the leavening for the 6″ pan?
J, no leavening adjustments. I treat 9″ cakes the same baked on pans 6 7 and 8″.

Yes, H, they are fantastically level. DO tell about the leavening….
Yep, they are perfectly level…do you dislodge your cake with an offset spatula pressing agnst the sides or place a hot towel underneath for few minutes for easy removal?
How did you get those perfect contours? Is it the silicone strip? Back here getting the silicone strip is always a hunt, so i make mine with aluminium foil and kitchen towels as suggested in TCB.
thx S, this is a perfect example where getting the best tools and materials makes a world of difference.
1- yes, i use an offset spatula pressing against the sides, as indicated by rose. i DO NOT use a hot towel, unless it is a custard or flourless cake or jello indeed (such as cheesecake, the oblivion, etc).
2- bakers joy is the best baking spray, nothing else to my experience gives you most perfect release and even crust.
3- and YES, i use rose’s silicone cake strips. they are much better than dealing with anything else. this will be worth getting, as they last a long time.
