Do you wait for an upside down cake to cool before flipping?

Heyya! Have you ever flip an upside-down cake straight from the oven or let it cool a bit? Curious if there's a rule here. Sometimes I dive in right away, risking a crumbling mess. Other times, patience wins, and I wait for a moment. How about you?

Yes, it's generally recommended to allow an upside-down cake to cool in the pan for a short period (usually around 10-15 minutes) after removing it from the oven before flipping it onto a serving plate to ensure that the cake holds its shape and doesn't fall apart.

Oh, I’ve definitely been there! I’ve flipped an upside-down cake straight from the oven before, and let’s just say… it wasn’t pretty. Now, I usually let it cool for about 10-15 minutes so it holds together better but is still warm enough to release easily. Waiting can be tough, but it’s worth it for that perfect flip!
