      it ruins the crumb, the cake will be dense and gross. if you don't over mix, it'll be fluffier, or crumbly.

The frustration, the problem solving, the mistake making, the success. It was real, raw, and relatable. Loved it.

Another option is ice-cream additive or soaking it in a thin compote-like sauce or sweet alcohol sauce to make something more pudding-like.

I know the yellow cake recipe is on there as well as the white cake and carrot cake (the white cake is cupcakes but it should be the same - although I know the egg count is different). The big difference I saw was the yellow cake was listed under birthday sheet cake and had a chocolate cream cheese frosting instead of the chocolate swiss meringue. Not sure on the others.

    Can you please start including the ingredients in your videos please? I love your videos but sometimes I have to google for the exact same recipe and keep going in between the recipe on the BA website and the video for visual instructions and it’s hard to follow along to bake like that. Also someone said the measurements of the ingredients for the cakes in this video are listed on the streaming channel but the streaming channel isn’t available for people in the EU. Not to sound entitled, it’s just that I’d appreciate it because I really enjoy BA videos and it’s not always easy following along without the measurements there. Sorry if I sound demanding or rude in any way. I don’t mean to.

    -pinch of salt

    -2 whole eggs plus 3 egg whites
    COCONUT FILLING
    -sugar 3/4 cup
    - 1/4 cup coconut oil
    -1 cup shredded coconut
    -1/2 cup heavy cream
    -pinch of salt
    COCONUT MILK SOAK

    @whats_a___taylor510 5 лет назад

    I haven't finished watching the whole ep yet (because time is an illusion but also i have errands i have to do) but so far I am totally in love with the format of the show! I love that you broke down why it's important not to under or over mix your batters ( it is SO important for the layperson ((or any one for that matter)) to understand WHY they're doing what they're doing and not just following blindly, it really drives home the point!) and I LOVED that you did a short summary at the end of each section to make sure no important steps were missed by the viewer. Looking forward to finishing the ep and hopefully following along in the future! Keep it up!!

  • @chantelherrington3520
    @chantelherrington3520 3 года назад

    I love how it is explained when batter is over or under mixed. I also love how the gluten is explained. This video has made me realize that I just need to go to baking school. I have been watching videos for 3 days to learn all about baking and decorating cakes, this video has been the best.

      I watch because im hungry then i realize im lazy and would never do it besides i dont have a mixer or a spatula or two cake pans or money to buy the ingredients xd. But when i did something i just did it by hand and thats why i dont do it anymore because it takes too much time and i hate cooking which is weird because when i was little i used to watch cooking tv shows where they baked a lot of stuff and i actually followed their recipes and did almost all even had a notebook for it and loved it but i got older and went to live alone and i just dont like cooking at all, the less time it takes to cook the better.

      don't you think this is a pretty disrespectful comment to make? BA & Claire make these videos in order to inspire their audience to get a start on cooking/baking, there's no need to go out of your way to comment that you're specifically never going to do it.
