Here are some easy and useful baking tips that you can use to make a delicious cake –
- You might always bring butter to room temperature, but, have you thought about doing the same to the eggs. If you use cold eggs, the will not emulsify properly and your cake will not be good. Thus, before you use the eggs, place them in a bowl of normal water to bring the eggs to the room temperature.
- Take the flour into the measuring cup and scoop the excess using a knife. Scooping the flour directly with a measuring cup will only result in excess flour than what you will need for the recipe.
- Positioning the pan in the oven is important if you want the batter to cook perfectly. The pan should be close to the centre of the oven and if you are baking more than one item together, remember they should not touch each other and allow air circulation between them.
- Once the cake is set, you can rotate the pans to allow even baking. If you are using more than one rack, you will ned to swap the pans about two third of the time later into the baking time.
- It helps to cool the cake upside down as it flattens the tops. If you are making layer cakes, it is bbest to cool it upside down as it becomes easier to stack them. If the top is a little rounded, you can flatten it using a knife.
