" Your cake ideas, recipes and pictures Helped me make unique, memorable cakes for my dearest friends"
Jodie, a friend of mine, was the best listener ever - very important as we all know.I am introducing her today to you for another quality which nobody could afford to miss.
That is her cake making skill - it is just excellent! She knows to keep things simple yet fantastic.
I once sought her help for a birthday cake ideas because I wanted to surprise my little brother with a birthday cake. Jodie came to my home and helped me out.
We made sure that the three round pans (about 8 inches) were greased and floured well.
We used the high speed mixer for five minutes to beat the egg yolks until the solution looked thick and pastel.
Here’s how we made the birthday cake. We preheated the oven to 375 degrees F. We sieved flour and separated it again with salt and baking powder twice.
Then Jodie asked me to put butter, sugar and cream in a large bowl.
We added the egg blend. The sifted combination along with milk was poured into the bowl. We added vanilla and stirred it well. Once the batter was prepared, we poured it into the cake pans.
We baked for half an hour. Then we touched the top part of the cake which was about to be prepared, with a knife at the center, for consistency.
Then we took the cake out and had it cooled on the wire rack for about 15 minutes. We made sure that we decorated the cake well with the right frost.
For the birthday cake ideas, Jodie also gave me some excellent tips for ice consistency. We used medium icing. We had flat petaled flowers on the cake and its borders.
Since the icing was not too stiff and not too thin, we could get consistent designs for the border. A way to practice the icing would be to use the rear of a cookie sheet covered with aluminum.
Jodie told me that the size and the uniformity of the icing are dependent on how we squeeze and release the grip of the decorating bag. So we have to apply just the right bit of pressure so evenly that we can shift the bag in a nice motion with just the right quantity of icing flowing through the tip.
I am really thankful to her birthday cake ideas. We made 10-12 serving of the birthday cake and yes, all of us enjoyed it. Even you can make a lovely luscious birthday cake by using your thinking cap and executing a brilliant birthday cake ideas.
