Quick tips for cake making

Quick tips for cake making
Average rating: 4 out of 5 star rating

I always wrap up any cakes I make and freeze them overnight before icing and decorating. When you come to decorate, they're more solid and won't fall apart.

If you flour nuts and dried fruits before adding them to cake recipes they won't sink to the bottom.
