Hello All, I was trying to bake cake. It came out kind of OK. When I taste it, I felt butter was more. I was using the same quantities given in this forum. I am using the cooking butter. Someone please help me what kind of butter should I use. And, can I give only half the quantity of butter, to that of plain flour. Thanks, kiran.
hi kiran, i'm not an adept in baking cakesand hence i can't guide u. but in the same forum , u've a sub forum titled ask chitvish. do click on the link below to go thru' it. http://www.indusladies.com/forums/222758-post81.html. Also, first read the " cake lore " and " tips on baking cakes " topics before u actually venture into one. Good luck! And, that's how i learnt and i tried many of her cake , bun and bread recipes. She is a superb teacher on the net.
Kiran, if you can specify the recipe that you tried and exactly what you mean by 'butter was more' then may be i can try to help. latha
The usual thumb rule for baking cakes is equal quantities of sugar, egg, flour and butter, but may vary according to the receipe.
