FINALLY I CAN BECOME THE BAKER OF MY DREAMS
The "not too sweet" is something that I've been looking for
Also need a tutorial of the frosting they make
Those asian pastries are SOOOOO GOOOODDD! When I was younger, my family got me this small chocolate cake/pastry from a bakery in an asian store. It's been years since I've had it, but I haven't forgotten how much I liked it! I don't even remember where the place was XD
Hi! It looks delicious 😍 I'm sorry, does cake flour have baking powder inside? If so, how much b.p. would I need to add to regular flour?
I tried the chiffon cake twice and it was spongy but the eggy smell I need to get rid off
OMG THIS WAS SO GOOOOODD
