  2. Water-bath means steam-bake:
    1) fill the bigger baking pan with hot water (1/3 of the height )
    2) sit the smaller baking pan (which has the cake mixture) into 1)above

    note :
    1) the diameter of the bigger baking pan (round) is about 1-2 inches larger than that of the smaller round baking pan.
    2) the height of the bigger pan is about the same height of the smaller pan

    when i have time , i shall add a picture of it in the blog.
