4. How to bake a cake


Before getting to the baking steps, choose a recipe to start with. You can go simple with a yellow cake or you can choose a slightly more complicated recipe. We also have a few cake recipes for anniversaries.
Step 1: Preheat the oven
When the cake rises too quickly, the cake can develop into tunnels and cracks, too slow the cake can be rough. Let your oven preheat for at least 10 minutes and use an oven thermometer to make sure it's at the right temperature. If you're using a dark cake pan, you'll want to lower the oven temperature required in your recipe by 160°C.
Step 2: Stir the ingredients together
Dry ingredients usually include flour, baking powder or baking soda and salt. Instead of adding the dry ingredients individually to the dough, pre-mix them together in a bowl. That way you know the ingredients are evenly distributed in the dough.
Step 3: Combine butter and sugar
Wondering how to make a light crust cake. Beating the butter and sugar is the most important step. Here's how:
Using an electric mixer on medium to high speed, beat the butter for 30 seconds. Generally, stand mixers require medium speed for this step and hand mixers require higher speeds.
Add the sugar (and vanilla if the recipe calls for it) and beat the mixture on medium speed until it's combined and has a light, fluffy texture. This process will take 3 to 5 minutes. Occasionally scrape the bowl while whisking. Tiny bubbles will be created as the butter and sugar combine, which will give your cake a fluffy, dreamy texture.

Step 4: Add eggs one at a time
Add eggs (or egg whites) one at a time, beating well after each. Their proteins create structure around air bubbles to maintain texture.
Step 5: Alternating addition of dry and wet ingredients
Alternating between adding some flour mixture and some milk (or other liquid specified in the recipe) to the butter-egg-sugar mixture, Beat on low speed after each addition until combined. Start and end with the flour mixture. This is because when the liquid is mixed into the powder.
Step 6: Pour the dough into the tray and bake: Divide evenly between the baking trays.
Step 7: Cool the cake
Let the cake cool in the tray on a wire rack for up to 10 minutes. To remove from the tray, run the knife around the edges of the cake to loosen it from the edges. Place a wire rack on top of the cake and turn the pan over. Lift the pan off the cake, being careful not to tear the edges of the cake. If you're using waxed paper or foil, gently peel the paper off the cake.
Let the cake cool completely (about 1 hour). This is an important step to help the cake harden, making it less likely to break when you freeze it.
Step 8: Decorate the cake and put it in the fridge
Use a spatula or knife to spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake, swirling as you do. Once the cake is completely coated, go back and add more swirls as desired. Serve within 2 hours or store in the refrigerator.
