A modern way can be to use an empty water bottle, and suck up the egg yolks after breaking the whole egg into a bowl.\n\nIt's fine to get some white in with the yolk, but not yolk in with the white. To ensure there's no contamination I use one bowl or mug to hold the yolks, one small bowl to seperate out the egg, and one large bowl to pour the whites into. \n\nYou then have to whisk the egg whites until it forms stiff peaks. You can do this with a fork, whisk or electric whisk. It can take from 5 to 10 minutes by hand, depending on the temperature of your eggs. If your eggs are at room temperature it takes less time to do. \n\nOnce the egg foam looks like stiff bath bubbles, mix the sugar with the yolks, and fold this into the egg white mix slowly. You don't want to do it too quickly as this can destroy the bubbles. \n\n[[This scares me, I want to do something easier|Cake - Yes]]\n<<endif>>\s\n<<if $milkChoc>>\s\nTake two tablespoons of flour, and mix it with the chocolate chips in a small bowl.

It's ok, cakes get better with practice. \n\nHere's a few ways which you might troubleshoot what went wrong: \n\n<<if $quickCake is true>>\s\n''The cake is too dry''\nAdd a bit more liquid to it next time, or cook it for a shorter amount of time. \n<<elseif>>\s\n<<if $veganCake is true>>\s\n''The cake fell in the middle''\nThe cake batter might be too thin, or has too much sugar or fat in the recipe. The gluten in Vegan Cakes tends to be the most important part for structure. Next time try reducing the water, sugar or fat content. If this doesn't work try adding some more baking powder or baking soda. Too much baking powder can make a bitter cake though, so try making a thicker batter first. \n\n''My cake is really dry''\nIf you've not overcooked your cake, then you've not had enough water or possibly fat in your cake mix. \n\n''My cake didn't rise at all''\nFirst check you didn't forget to add enough baking powder or other rising agents, if you've used enough then your batter may be too thin. Add less liquid next time.\n\n''My cake is burnt on the outside and undercooked in the middle''\nYou have put the cake in at too high a temperature. If you have a large enough cake you can still rescue it by putting it in the oven at a lower temperature until the middle is cooked, then cutting off the burnt outside. \n\n''My cake has a damp rim''\nTake it out of the tin for cooling to make sure water doens't condense on the sides.\n\n''My cake is stuck in the tin''\nYou've either not greased it well enough, or next time use non-stick baking paper on the inside of the tin. \n<<elseif>>\s\n''The cake has spilled all over the sides of the tin''\nYou have over filled the cake tin, fill your tin 3/4 full to make sure that expansion doesn't mess things up.\n\n''The cake is too thin and overcooked, but is otherwise great''\nUse a smaller tin next time, try to have your tin 3/4 full. \n\n''My cake is really dense and heavy''\nBeat the fats more until they're light and fluffy, and make sure the eggs are well beaten before slowly adding them. \n\n''My cake has peaked in the middle and cracked''\nYou have either used too much raising agent, overfilled the cake tin or the oven temperature was too high.\n\n''My cake has large air bubbles''\nTap your cake tin after you've put the batter inside, that can release trapped air bubbles. Also make sure your dry ingredients are well mixed, to ensure there's no clumps of baking powder. If that doens't work your oven may not be heating the cake evenly, make sure the oven is fully warmed before you put your cake inside. \n\n''My cake is burnt on the outside and undercooked in the middle''\nYou have put the cake in at too high a temperature. If you have a large enough cake you can still rescue it by putting it in the oven at a lower temperature until the middle is cooked, then cutting off the burnt outside. \n\n''My cake fell in the middle''\nThis can have many reasons. The most common tends to be overbeating the cake, this is why we mix the wet ingredients and dry ingredients seperately. Beating the flour and wet ingredients too much can cause this. \nOther issues could be: Through opening the door too much or not heating up the oven enough. Leaving the batter on the side for more than half an hour before putting it in the oven. Too much raising agent, or an out of date one which doesn't work any more. \n<<endif>>\s\n\n''My problem is not listed''\nHere's a PDF which has loads of ways to help your baking http://www.progressivebaker.com/downloads/Cake.pdf \n<<endif>>\s\n\n<<Final>>

_.:*・°☆-♡-*・°☆._.☆°・*-♡-☆°・*:._\n\nI've baked a Rich Chocolate Cake with Butter, Wheat Flour and Dark Chocolate. I've used this recipe a few times, remember not to forget the Flour! If you do, it's still delicious, but falls flat. Also children hate the dark chocolate used, but adults love it! So it's perfect if you want to make sure kids don't eat all of it.\n\n_.:*・°☆-♡-*・°☆._.☆°・*-♡-☆°・*:._

Vegan Buttercream is made with one part <<$cakeFat>> to two parts icing sugar. \n\nThen add whichever vegan flavouring you wish, whether it's vanilla, orange, chocolate etc.\n\nBecause vegan fats tend to have a lower melting temperature, it may be a good idea to put it in the fridge for a couple of hours after making it, to make sure it firms up. \n\n[[Back|Cake Cooked]]

A bain-marie is just another term for a double boiler, or a set-up where you have the thing you wish to melt above a boiling pot of water.\n\nThis prevents the temperature in the thing you wish to melt getting too high and burning what you're melting. \n\nIt can be a complex piece of equipment, or as simple as a bowl over another bowl full of boiled water. \n\nRemember, the water is not an ingredient, it's part of the equipment, so you don't want to have too much water and cause some of it to get where you're melting your ingredients. \n\n[[Back|Cake Cooked]]

Not all plants are suitable for cakes, some are actively poisonous, some might just be non-food safe. \n\nMake sure to clean all plants before using them, especially if they're not from your own garden as they might have un-foodsafe pesticides on them. \n\nHere's a list of food safe and common plants:\n\n*Apple Blossoms (Including the branches and leaves)\n*Bamboo\n*Basil\n*Begonia\n*Borage\n*Carnations\n*Chamomile\n*Cherry Blossoms (Including the branches and leaves)\n*Chicory\n*Chives (they have beautiful purple flowers, slightly oniony though)\n*Chrysanthemum coronarium (make sure this variety of chrysanthemum only)\n*Cornflower\n*Courgette etc. squash flowers (can be bought in some food stores)\n*Dahlia\n*Daisy\n*Dandelion (if you get this sap on things it can taste bitter, but it only makes you need a wee, doesn't hurt you)\n*Eucalyptus\n*Fennel\n*Fuchsia\n*Hibiscus\n*Hollyhock\n*Jasmine - [Jasminum officinale] (do not use false Jasmine as it is poisonous)\n*Mallow\n*Marigold (in moderation)\n*Mint\n*Mustard Flower\n*Nasturtium\n*Nettles [stinging](perfectly safe to eat, even if you don't remove the stingers, just unusual, old leaves are bitter tasting)\n*Pansy\n*Pea (vegetable only, sweet pea is poisonous)\n*Primrose\n*Primula\n*Rosemary\n*Roses\n*Sage\n*Strawberry\n*Sunflower\n*Tulips (only for personal use, some people are very allergic to Tulips)\n*Violet\n*Zinnia\n\nNever use these plants: \n\n*Azalea\n*Christmas Rose\n*Clematis\n*Columbine\n*Daffodil\n*Deadly Nightshade (Obvious? Not entirely. Tomatoes, aubergines and potatoes are part of this family. Do not use their leaves or flowers)\n*Foxgloves\n*Fritillary\n*Hemlock (Is in a family where half the plants are edible, the other half are deadly)\n*Hydrangea\n*Holly\n*Iris\n*Ivy\n*Laburnum\n*Lily of the Valley\n*Mistletoe\n*Monkshood\n*Morning Glory\n*Oleander\n*Periwinkle\n*Poppies (except poppy seeds labeled as edible)\n*St John's Wort\n*Wisteria\n*Yew\n\nIf you're not sure about a plant, and I've overlooked it, then just check it on [[https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?pid=524]] if you can't identify the plant by name or photo, then don't use it. \n\nAs a side note, some plants like Holly (always check how toxic each plant is, and which parts are toxic) are safe to use as long as you ensure no sap gets put on anything edible (wrap the stems in foil or clingfilm) and that no-one is likely to eat the decoration.\n\nIf you've got the time and effort, the safest flowers to use are made out of icing sugar or plastic. \n\n[[Back|Cake Cooked]]

Vegan cream cheese icing can be made with one part <<print $cakeFat>> to two parts icing sugar. Add a pinch of salt and a dash of sweet vinegar (such as apple or balsamic) and a dash of vanilla extract.\n\nYou can also use <<if $CupsMeasure>>1/2 cup<<elseif>>120g<<endif>> vegan cream cheese, mixed with <<if $CupsMeasure>>1/3 cup<<elseif>>160g<<endif>> vegan butter and <<if $CupsMeasure>>3 cups<<elseif>>330g<<endif>> icing sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla flavouring. \n\nFirst whip the cream cheese and the butter together, then add the vanilla flavouring, followed by the icing sugar. Stir it all until it's smooth.\n\nBecause vegan fats tend to have a lower melting temperature, it may be a good idea to put it in the fridge for a couple of hours after making it, to make sure it firms up. \n\n[[Back|Cake Cooked]]

Ok, now let's choose our ingredients. \n\nWe've got to start with the dry basis of the cake: \n\nHow about some [[wheat flour|WheatChoice]]? Nice and cheap, wheat flour is found in pretty much all baking stores. White flour is best used for cakes, and it comes in a bunch of varieties, including more finely ground cake flour. You can still have a delicious cake using the cheapest variety, or even wholemeal bread flour, it'll just be an experiment!\n\nIf you need it, or choose to, it's also possible to get [[gluten free flour|GFChoice]]. More expensive, but comes in all sorts of varieties. Try to get one which says it can be used 1:1 as wheat flour, this might be a blended version. It'll still be possible to use your favourite gluten-free flour, but the cake might end up a bit weird. \n\nFor gluten-free and wheat flours, these are just flours so they'll need sugar. For the best cakes you can buy things like caster sugar, but granulated sugar is perfectly fine. There'll be a list later of the ingredients you need.\n\nFor those who need the ease, there's [[cake mix|MixChoice]] which is found in pretty much all supermarkets, and tends to have baking instructions on the side! It's still possible to modify them though, as they mostly tend to be just a mix of flour, sugar and raising agents. \n

<<if not $cakeMix>>We'll add some sugar and raising agents like baking powder and baking soda to that. Those will add sweetness and help your cake rise! \n\n<<if not $veganCake>>\nSome cakes just use whipped egg whites to help them rise, instead of baking power or bicarbonate of soda, and some traditional recipes use yeast. \n\n<<endif>><<endif>>You might think that fats are a bad thing, but no, fats of all sorts are super helpful. Not just as an important part of a diet (though cakes don't really count), but they have properties perfect for baking. \n\nFats are<<if $veganCake>> used in vegan cakes to help with the taste and especially in making things moist.<<endif>> <<if not $veganCake>> used in cakes to help trap tiny air bubbles or add a delicious flavour and moist texture to the cake.<<endif>> Fats also help heat move through the cake, making sure everything is baked perfectly. \n\nPick your fat!\n\n<<if not $veganCake>>.:*・°☆-♡-*・°☆.
