Tip Tuesday - Folding

Hey lovelies
So todays tip is all about the mixing of your cake, once your wet ingredients are fully incorporated and your ready to add your dry ingredients.....take a spoon or spatular and create a figure 8 motion cutting through the bottom of the batter, round the edges back in the middle and again for the other side so you have a figure 8 motion!

The biggest problem in baking is a sunken cake and a stogy cake, the main reason for this is because the batter has been mixed to vigorously and the air has been knocked out! 

To achieve a light and fluffy cake always cream your butter and sugar until its light and fluffy to incorporate air and gently fold in your dry ingredients to keep in and add more air! 

Happy baking
