Cakes can dip or 'drop' when cooling if they are knocked, or if, when they are removed from the oven, there is a large difference in temperature. This can sometimes cause the cake to change shape slightly.

Part of the rise is from steam trapped in the cake. As it cools, the steam condenses so the cake deflates some.
