Yes, you can bake any cake in a conventional microwave oven, rather than one found in a stove or anywhere else. You need some type of special pan however, a microwavable pan which can possibly be found at your nearest Wal-Mart.

Use an 8oz box of Jiffy cake mix, any type...Mix according to instructions on the box...Grease a loaf or square casserole dish...7 minutes at 50% or Medium in your microwave...1~2 minutes on High...Check with a toothpick...I make them all the time and they turn out perfectly...

Another Response:

Yes, cake can be baked in a microwave oven, as long as a proper pan is used as well as the correct power level and baking time. More information is available on the link below.

Another Response:

SOMEWHERE there must be a recipe where you can do this, but it is not recommended. It just won't come put right.

Another Response:

No, you can't, if you are talking about cakes such as layer cakes or white cake, or chocolate cake. In other words, no cake that is fluffy and has an open grain structure.The only kind of takes that one can make in a microwave oven or very dense cakes such as brownies. The reason for this, is that the rate of heating of ordinary cake batter is so fast that the cake structure has no time to build and therefore the batter expands wildly and then when the microwave goes off it collapses. I've done work on this kind of thing for nearly 50 years.

There was this one website I found with something like that.

Turns out, It worked! It was quick and easy. But man, I wish I remembered it!

A cake can be baked in a microwave in a microwave-safe pan, as long as one follows instructions very closely. The cake will not develop a crust as it would in a conventional oven. Using a tube pan will help the cake bake all the way through. See the attached link for microwave cake recipes and instructions.

You can't because the cake will not turn out right. Cakes need to be bakes in a regular oven.

You do not preheat a microwave. A microwave heats the food, not the oven. With nothing in the oven it will not heat up.
