Useful baking tips

Make your own vanilla sugar

Do not dispose of scraped vanilla beans, but use them for vanilla sugar. Fill sugar into a well-closing glass and put the vanilla beans into it. Leave to stand closed for a few days. The sugar takes on the vanilla flavour.

Refine sponge cake

A simple sponge cake can be turned into a delicious cake in no time at all: Simply

cut the cake in half horizontally, spread the bottom cake layer with mixed apricots or cherry jam, place the top layer on top and spread the cake with whipped cream.

Finally decorate with chocolate shavings.

Cake glaze also distribute cake

To ensure that fruit on fruit bases is evenly covered with cake glaze, the liquid glaze

with a small soup or a sauce ladle from the center spiral over the fruit. Work quickly, as the icing solidifies quickly.

How to make cake less caloric

If you want to watch your figure, replace half the fat with the same amount of cream curd in the dough. This makes the cake lighter.

Cake transport

To prevent cakes or pies from slipping off the plate during transport, you should put some honey under the base. Give.

Brittle

For sprinkling a baking tin you can use fine brittle instead of breadcrumbs. Especially with nut cake, this gives it a plus in aroma.

Yeast dough

A yeast dough will rise safely and well if you give it under a cake cover. There it is well protected from drafts.

Strawberries

If strawberries already have slight damage and are no longer suitable for a cake topping

If you want to use it, you can cut off the spots and dip the strawberries in a liquid chocolate coating. This way they still remain good for cake decoration.

Nut filling

If the nuts for a cake filling are briefly roasted in a coated pan before further processing, they taste even more intense.

Sponge cake

To keep a sponge cake juicy for a long time, you should spread it with lukewarm liquid butter.

Cake glaze

For the perfect icing, take powdered sugar and sieve it so that it becomes fine powder. Stir with so much water or lemon juice until a spreadable mass is formed.

For a bubble-free cake glaze, mix the glaze powder with the sugar before stirring.

The perfect heat

With top and bottom heat, muffins don't get "skewed" and sponge bases stay nice and juicy. Hot air on the other hand is good for cream puffs and cookies. These become crispy already and several trays can be baked at the same time.

Preparing caramel

Heat the sugar until it begins to melt at the edge. Then stir until the sugar

is dissolved and the caramel reaches a golden yellow brown color.

Gelling sugar

Sprinkle two to three spoonfuls of jam sugar on highly juicy fruit cakes before baking,

the juice is bound immediately.

Whipped cream

If you want to whip cream for a cake garnish stiffly, gelling sugar is suitable instead of a cream firming agent. It makes the cream stiffer and sweeter.

Chocolate cake / muffins

The chocolate taste will be more intense if you first dissolve the cocoa powder in a little warm water before mixing it into the dough.

Egg Yolk

If one mixes egg yolk to coat pastries with a pinch of sugar, cakes and

cookie particles a more intense color.

Baking Powder

In order for the leavening agent to be better distributed in the dough, it should always be mixed with the flour first,

before it comes together with the remaining ingredients.

Pastry brush

A baking brush with dark bristles is suitable for coating cakes and pies with sugar icing. If it loses hair, you can easily see it on the light-colored glaze and remove it. A good alternative are also silicone brushes, these do not lose any bristles.

Make your own vanilla cream

Cut open 2 vanilla pods, scrape out the pulp, put aside for the time being. Bring 500 g cream with vanilla beans to the boil, remove from heat and let it stand for 10 minutes. Remove the pods. Whip 3 egg yolks with 125 g sugar, stir in cream and pulp. Ready!
