Baking is a method of preparing food that uses dry heat, typically in an
oven, but can also be done in hot ashes, or on hot stones. The most
common baked item is bread, but many other types of foods can be
baked.[1] Heat is gradually transferred from the surface of cakes,
cookies, and pieces of bread to their center, typically conducted at
elevated temperatures surpassing 300°F.
