Hi all, Nice work purplelips. How are you getting on now? Hope your fondant works are getting more and more easier by the minute. I am a cake lover/baker who just ventured into the art of cake decorating and is journaling my cake journeys on http://ceescraftdesign.weebly.com/. I would like to feature other budding cake decorators who would like to participate in research about how they started, why they started and what they hope to get out of the art of cake decorating. Attached is a recent photo of the latest cake I made (unfortunately I only make cakes mostly for people at home or when friends who know about my cake making ask as such it might be few and far in between) Thanks and bless you. Apologies if this is a cross posting or has offended anyone. That isn't what I was trying to put out.

Re: My Baking Hobby.. :D by mooretes: 10:51am On Dec 03, 2015 |
@purplelips, that's a shame. Hopefully you get one soon. Yes I made the cake after watching several videos of how to make a 3D minion cake. Thanks a lot. Enjoy the rest of your day x |

Re: My Baking Hobby.. :D by mooretes: 2:04pm On Dec 03, 2015 |
@ raayah, Cakes are made depending on the type requested and the type of recipe the cake calls for. I suppose like you, most Nigerians prefer the harder/dense cakes (your Nigerian one) to very soft/melt in your mouth cakes (those you referred to as been made overseas), tbh, I am unsure why this preference because there are loads of good cakes out there to try. For me, when a cake is too hard, you would need to drink loads which takes away from the taste of your cake. One exception though is the mud cake which is mostly associated with wedding cakes in Australia. This cake is so rich, moist and "chocolatey" that you only need a little bite otherwise, you are writing letter to heart attack. |

Re: My Baking Hobby.. :D by mooretes: 11:25pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
@MrsOJ Here is a link to one of my favourite cakes, though I just confess I don't like chocolate cake, however this recipe is really lovely and the cake very moist. Instead of expresso coffee just use normal coffee. http://addapinch.com/cooking/the-best-chocolate-cake-recipe-ever/ She has several other recipes but I haven't tried them yet. I have added a screenshot of the recipe. Also,where it says a cup of boiling water, please make sure it is a cup of boiling water. You can make the cake using just a bowl and a laddle instead of a mixer because I have always used a bowl without any problem. Mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda (baking soda), cocoa powder and coffee In another bowl, mix your vanilla, eggs, milk and vegetable oil. Ps: Ive read somewhere that if using powdered milk, mix 2 tablespoon of milk with a cup of water (I haven't tried this, but I do have another information on how to use powdered milk, only, I'd have to search for it). Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix well, at this stage the mix will be somewhat hard in consistency, add your boiling water and mix, this will make your mixture thin, don't worry, nothing is wrong with your mix. Bake using an 8 inch or 9 inch pan, btw 50-60mins, oven temperature 140-160. I hardly use 180, if you want a moist cake, bake on low heat for a little longer. Ps: Turn oven to 140 before you start mixing. If using two pans like the woman suggested, then baking time would be about 30-45mins Nifdem, urs will come in grams, just wanted to drop something in the meantime 1 Share

Thanks, I've not baked a chocolate cake b4. It will be a Christmas treat for family and friends. |
Re: My Baking Hobby.. :D by hairbraiding: 6:47am On Dec 08, 2015 |
Chocolate cake making serious sense since AD I no know when. Add some chopped almonds and dried currants to the mix and see how that turns out. mmmmm And yes, soft cakes rock. That hard dry consistency is a no no. I think sometimes, the cake is simply stale. Nothing better than fresh, bouncy cake. @op please show pics of cupcakes or do you not focus on those?
