Chocolate cake...can’t believe it worked. Hmm...haven’t tasted it yet though.

It sank...

Chocolate sponge cake, with chocolate fudge icing.

It sank...

I wonder why?
I'd need to see the recipe and instructions, to figure out why.

I couldn’t get plain flour, so I had to use self raising. I’m guessing that’s why...or maybe I’m just shit at baking like I thought. Lol

How odd, I always use self raising flour.

 

[Edie]

The recipe I used said plain. Weird

Where did you set it after it was baked? I find at home that if I leave the oven on and rest the cake on top of the stove the tempering is eased and the fiber sets.. a couple times I've set a cake off to the side or in a draft and that's when I get one that will deflate a bit....

 

[Edie]

I think I did just leave it sitting on top of the stove.

 

[Oldgymrat]

Hmmm.... then it's a mystery to me too...

Baking is hard , has to be said. Rewarding though.

Tomato, pepper, and broccoli quiche.
Made the case with potato, red onion, breadcrumbs, and egg, baked it, before adding the fillings.
Left over case ingredients got made into fritters.

Those look good to eat. How do you cook them?

Sorry I don't give my baking secrets away.

Okay then.

 

[FallenFreya]

Having a bad bake day. My scones turned into sweet bread rolls. Still nice though.

 

[FallenFreya]

Ginger cupcakes made into butterfly style cakes, with help of icing sugar and crystallised ginger pieces.

 

[Oldgymrat]

Damn girl... food porn... mmm....mmmmm....ugh...aaaajhhhhh

 

[FallenFreya]

Not sure if this works.

 

[Oldgymrat]

It will.leaven only on a first rise.. so things which go proof to oven will work but things like breads requiring a punch down and second lift will not work so well
