BLOGGING THE BAKING SCENE

A

BAKING BREADS, CAKES OR ANY PASTRIES AT HOME IS REWARDING NOT ONLY BECAUSE YOU GET TO EAT BREADS OR CAKES THAT COST LESS, BUT ALSO BECAUSE THE BAKED GOODS THAT YOU EAT TASTE ONE MIND BLOWING MILES AWAY FROM WHAT YOU BUY COMMERCIALLY.

YOUR BASIC BANANA CAKE RECIPE TWISTED WITH A SWEET BUKO TOPPING

DECORATED KABABAYAN

IF YOU WANT TO LEARN HOW TO BAKE CAKES, THE RULES ARE VERY BASIC, START WITH FRESH INGREDIENTS AND STICK TO THE RECIPE.

YOU CAN TWEAK BREAD RECIPES IN SO MANY WAYS ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF IT, BUT NOT WITH CAKES, IT IS A VERY PRECISE SCIENCE.

MOIST CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES

LEARN HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT A COOKIE RECIPE AND HOW TO FREEZE AND MOLD. I USE TO SELL THOUSANDS OF COOKIES BEFORE SO I KNOW THE DIFFICULTIES ENCOUNTERED WHEN BAKING THEM. SOMETIMES YOU FOLLOW A RECIPE AND YOU END UP WITH A COOKIE DOUGH THAT SPREADS THROUGHOUT THE BAKING SHEET.

OATMEAL COOKIES

OTHER COOKIES DO NOT SPREAD AT ALL RESULTING IN A COOKIE THAT IS HARD AS A ROCK. THROUGH EXPERIMENTATIONS I FOUND OUT HOW TO MINIMIZE THE ERRORS. IMAGINE MIXING A 5 KILO BATCH AND FINDING OUT THAT THE DOUGH WOULD NOT MAKE PROPERLY?

COFFEE AND FUDGY BROWNIES

WHY DOES IT HAPPEN WHEN THE RECIPE IS ALREADY STANDARDIZED? IS THERE A WAY TO FOOLPROOF YOUR RECIPE? I FOUND OUT HOW AND MAKE YOUR COOKIES LOOK AND TASTE GREAT.

ONCE YOU LEARN HOW TO CREAM THE BUTTER AND SUGAR, YOU CAN NOW MAKE BUTTERCAKES, POUND CAKES ETC.,

THIS IS THE BASIC OF CAKE MAKING. SPONGE CAKES AND CHIFFON ARE THE HARDEST SINCE YOU NEED TO SEPARATE THE EGGS AND THIS IS WHERE MOST MISTAKES OCCUR.

Have fun decorating these tiny cupcakes!!!
