Rules to go by: If I am making one of my cakes or a recipe that I read somewhere and liked, this is what I do:
 
  1. I DON’T ANSWER the phone or the door.
  2. I always use a HARD COPY/WRITTEN, or ELECTRONIC.
  3. I put all the ingredients on my right side and after I used them, move them to the left.
  4. I make sure that the eggs and butter are fresh and at ROOM TEMPERATURE.
  5. I MEASURE exactly as the recipe indicates, not more, not less.
  6. I PRE-HEAT my oven always.
  7. I DON’T overbeat.
  8. I NEVER PEEK INSIDE THE OVEN at least until the baking time is almost finished.
  9. I always position my oven rack IN THE CENTER and place the cake pans right in the middle of the rack.
  10. If I am baking two cakes at once, I place them on the same rack SIDE-BY-SIDE. I won't put one on top of the other, since they will not bake evenly that way.
 
These are the simple rules I learned that helped me time and time again to bake delicious cakes. They have not taken the fun of baking away from me. In fact, these rules ensure me that I will not have cake problems I shouldn’t be having. I hope they help you as well.
TOMORROW, CHOCOLATE CAKES! Have fun Baking friends!
