Baking Tips
- When frosting cupcakes, just dip tops into a bowl of frosting and twist.
- Pancakes freeze very well, separate with waxed paper. Reheat in a 350 degree F (175 C) oven.
- Draw your design with a toothpick before decorating a cake. Then you can just follow the stencilling as a guide.
- Oatmeal cookies will taste better if you toast the oatmeal first. Sprinkle over a pan and heat in an oven on low heat for about 10 minutes.
- When you add eggs to cake batter, separate the yolks from the whites and mix the yolks in first. After the batter has been mixed and all the other ingredients incorporated, beat the whites until stiff peaks form and then fold them in. This will give you a lighter, softer cake.
- For light and fluffier pancakes, substitute club soda for liquid in the recipe.
- To keep the icing soft on your cake without cracks, add a dash of baking soda to icing.
- Sprinkle your cake plate with granulated sugar before you put the cake on it. When cut, the slices will not stick to the plate (you can also use breadcrumbs).
