Bake like a pro. Read on to know how to elevate your baking game to the next level.
Read the entire recipe
Don’t blindly follow the recipe. Understand and read the instructions with care. That way, you’ll know the steps and the tools as well as ingredients you’ll need before you start. Make sure you’re clear on everything before you do step one.
Prepare everything
Bring out the cake supplies you’ll need. Have them within easy reach. This is also a good time to prepare your ingredients. Bring your eggs and butter to room temperature, Popsugar says.
Use them properly
Don’t use pans without greasing them generously. Otherwise, the cake will stick to the surface. Also, if you’re going to use a cookie sheet, top it with parchment paper. If you don’t, you’ll end up with a burned or broken confection and hardened crumbs in your bakeware. That’s going to be a nightmare of a mess to clean up.
Invest in good ones
Shop for quality cake supplies from N.Y. Cake. Achieving the taste and flavor you want is easier when you use grade-A tools and supplies. There’s less room for error and better heat conduction, so you deal with less frustrating results.
Use a digital scale
Measuring cups aren’t always accurate. Stop relying on guesswork by getting yourself on a digital scale. That’s a much-needed addition to your kitchen tools and equipment.
Be creative
Study and learn as much as you can. Go through books. Check out cakes from your favorite bakers. Follow their social media pages. Don’t be afraid to experiment with ingredients. These will help you improve your cake-making skills. Just make sure you have enough cake supplies when you experiment with different approaches to a well-loved recipe. That way, you won’t run out of ingredients when you’re already halfway through the baking recipe.
