July 28th, 2016

The very first word that pops up in our minds when we hear of the word cake is that of Celebrations! Festivals, weddings, anniversaries, welcome, farewells, and of course, birthdays, all of these can never be complete without the mandatory cake cutting ceremony. But with most of us living away from home for either work or studies, it does not be possible to be physically a part of all these celebrations and cake cutting. But cake delivery makes these celebrations quite possible even for people living far away from one another. You can now plan a tasty surprise for your loved one from wherever in the world you are. Here are the top tips that can help you bake the finest of cake.

Choosing the correct pan for the cake – You need to start with the basics, of course. And the first basic is choosing the right clean and polished pan made of aluminium which will reflect the heat away from the cake and lend it a light brown and super soft crust. The darker the pan, the darker the crust will be. If you bake on an insulated pan, the baking time will be much longer. Plus, you also need to consider its size. A shapeless cake is usually a result of a big pan. But the issue with the small pan is that the batter may overflow.

Do not just copy-paste the written recipe into methodology – You cannot bake without following the recipe, but following it blindly will only result in a flop show.  Everyone has his or her own style of baking and cooking, and also the instruments you are using which largely vary from the ones used in the tutorial video. So if you blindly follow the recipe, the result will not be the same as you saw. Thus you need to remember that a few ingredients and their quantity can vary.

Do not refuse to make use of a gadget– Few of you, like many others, may not want to use a gadget in baking. But why not? It saves you not only manual labour but time too. Eventually, your cake will matter and now how you baked it.

Measure the ingredients to be used– You must have precision, especially when baking. Otherwise your cake will never turn out to taste good. A small mistake in measuring will cause your cake to either look or taste bad. To avoid this, make use of measuring scales. You cannot bake without precision.

Less baking powder; more fat content in butter – You need to be very careful when using the baking powder in the cake. Too much of it will lead to a very dry cake. Same with butter, make sure it has fat content. If the butter does not have fat content, it means it has a lot of water. And this water will evaporate when you bake the cake, leading to a complete mess in your oven. Most products in UK contain high content of fat.

You can bake for your own satisfaction. But if you want to send cake to someone, its best to use cake delivery UK method. Simple and easy.
