Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit). Once preheated, bake the corn cake for about 60 to 75 minutes. To check the doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready! - Cooling:
After baking, allow the corn cake to cool for a while before serving. This will make it easier to slice and serve.
