Using baking strips together with dark non-stick pans can balance heat distribution, preventing over-browning or uneven baking. Dark non-stick pans tend to heat up faster, often requiring a 25°F reduction in oven temperature to prevent overbaking. Since baking strips help reduce excessive edge browning by keeping the pan cooler, you should still lower the oven temperature by 25°F when using dark pans to ensure optimal results, especially for sensitive recipes like cakes https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/blog/2022/08/29/the-best-way-to-prep-y… tnx for this
