Well, we finally cooked a good cake in our convection oven, but it took a
lot longer than we wanted.

The magic formula:

200 degrees, low fan speed, rotate once, cook for 1 hour and 30 minutes

It's really enlightening to me to hear all of the bakers that don't use
convection ovens for their cakes.
