Yes that's true, last time I saw cookies baked into a car through a windscreen (during 3h30)
Since few days I cook all my lunchs with my solar cooker A nice solar barbecue reaches > 500°F immediately. 1 hour for a chicken, 20 min for sausages... without any smoke or any fat, simply awesome !Comment

Foods cooked in solar ovens DOES taste different. Like it's only been steamed or boiled. breads/cake/cookies are marginal. I've been in the desert, trying to bake cookies in bright sun on a hot day, after 45 min, they still were not cooked. Things don't "brown" in a solar oven, until you get to the large concentrator types:

Eventually, at 50 suns, hot dogs come out OK, in 60 secondsComment

I have baked hundreds of biscuits in a solar oven they look and taste EXACTLY the same as when cooked in a gas oven. Anyone that says solar ovens dont get hot enough to bake perfectly either have never used one (the most likely case)or used a very badly designed and made one.
To brown biscuits you need about 160deg C . A good solar oven can get above 200deg C.Comment
