What Are Some Good Cake Baking Tips? What Are Some Good Icing Tips?


Always add a cup of sour cream to any cake mix. Do not omit another ingredient just add. Moist every time!

Always let the cake completely cool before icing unless you want it to run down the sides for affect.

Oh, I forget one of the best tips I ever got...Whenever it calls for greased and floured, omit the flour and grease and use sugar instead. Comes out perfect every time and with the prettiest glaze on it.

To make a lighter cake, separate the eggs first. Add the yolks to the butter mixture, beat the egg whites then fold into the batter.

Use cocoa instead of flour for dusting a greased pan when making a chocolate cake.

Toss nuts, raisins and chopped fruits in flour first. This will help keep them suspended in batters.

To moisten confectioners’ sugar frostings, use other liquids in place of milk. Melted jelly, fruit juices, coffee, peanut butter (with a little milk), honey, or maple syrup are just a few alternatives.

Make chocolate whipped cream by combining 2 tablespoons each unsweetened cocoa powder and confectioners’ sugar in a mixing bowl.
Gradually stir in 1 cup whipping cream, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before beating.
