Butter is used in cakes to give the cake a richer taste. If butter is not used, the ingredients are often too dry or the recipe ends up tasting bland. Butter provides the saltier aspect to the sweet dish, so that you end up with the best of both worlds.
Cake Icing is a mixture of butter, sugar and flavouring you put on top of a cake.
Butter makes a cake moist, adds flavor, and acts as a minor binding agent to help hold the cake together. Vegetables are not commonly put into cakes.
your cake will look and taste like goo in the oven
Do you mean a cake mix? If so, you need to butter the pan, and then flour the pan. After you remove the excess flour, then you can put the cake mix in the pan.
To make cake you need an oven.In the oven you need to put in an egg, a fruit, flour, and butter.
Whether you choose to use butter or soft margarine for a cake, all of your cake ingredients should be room temperature. Margarine or butter needs to be room temperature to make it easier to cream. If it is too cold, or too warm, the cake won't rise properly. Creaming the butter with room temperature butter or margarine allows air to incorporate into it properly.
The major difference between a sponge cake and a butter cake is that a sponge cake has no fat in it, should be light in texture. A sponge cake not stored correctly will go dry quickly. A cake with butter in is a firmer moist cake which should keep longer.
Try either a butter cream or cream cheese icing.
well it depends what kind of cupcakes they are. only put them in vanilla, chocolate, or butter cake mix. they don't work well with other flavors. and if you put them in add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the mix for vanilla or butter cake. and add 2 teaspoons of chocolate sauce or cinnamon for chocolate cake. (i bake cakes for a living trust me)
margerine or soya butter
Most cake recipes actually call for butter. Some recipes call for vegetable oil. It all depends on the recipe.
