Tips For A Moist And Flavourful Bar One Cake Recipe

  • Make sure that all the ingredients are measured out carefully.  A slight variation may alter the texture of the cake.
  • Use only softened butter not to have to wait too long to cream the butter and sugar together.  You can keep all the ingredients out a night before you plan to make the recipe so that all the ingredients are at the same temperature.
  • Keep the eggs out so that they are not added chilled as this tends to lead to a stiff cake.
  • Sift the dry ingredients and add them in parts so that they do not clump together.
  • Once you add the dry ingredients, make sure only to mix till all the ingredients are combined.  Overmixing at this stage is the most common mistake bakers make.
  • Ensure an even temperature in the oven.  An oven thermometer could ensure this for you.
  • 30 minutes is only a guideline, and the cake might take anywhere from 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of the containers and the temperature that the oven can maintain.
  • Leave the cakes to cool in the pan for 15 minutes.  Once the pans are only warm to the touch, you may invert the cakes onto a cooling wire rack so that they cool completely.
