My first time baking a cake

in Foodies Bee Hive3 years ago (edited)

Cake is a sweet food created by mixing flour, sugar, butter, milk, egg, baking powder together.

We have different shapes of cake. They are; Round shape, heart shape, square shape e.t.c.

Cakes can be used for different occasions and purposes.
It can be used in a birthday party, wedding ceremony, and anniversary celebrations.
It can also be served at home as a snack.

Earlier today I learnt how to bake a cake for the first time and we baked a heart shape cake.
It was a fun experience.

Below are the recipes that were used;

The following are the steps and procedures used to bake the cake;

  • Put your sugar and butter in an empty bowl and use your manual mixer to mix it together till it's fluffy.

  • Pour in the sieved flour and baking powder into this other bowl and mix it thoroughly.
    You can still use your mixer.

  • Pour in your flavor and mixed fruit and mix it together.

  • Then you pour the batter into the cake pan.
