Cut the wax paper slightly inside the traced line to make it fit snugly in the pan.
Cutting slightly inside the line ensures the liner fits perfectly.
Place the wax paper liner in the bottom of the cake pan.
Ensure the liner lies flat against the pan's bottom.
Pour the cake batter into the pan and bake as directed.
