How many cups of flour is equal to 6 ounces?

6 ounces is 3/4 a cup That's not really correct. That is assuming you are converting liquid (volumetric) measurements. The challenge here is that ounces of flour is weight and cups is volume, so you cannot use the fluid ounces of 8 per cup. You need to consider the density of the flour and how tightly it is packed.

How do you change white cake to yellow cake?

You can buy a cake that is yellow or use yellow food coloring.

White cake is white because it's made with egg whites only; yellow cake is yellow because it's made with whole eggs, the egg yolks make it yellow. If you are making it yourself from a recipe for white cake but want it yellow, use whole eggs instead of egg whites, reducing the number of eggs by one. You could also make it yellow by using orange juice concentrate for flavoring, which will of course make it an orange flavored cake.

How much money does a cake designer earn?

cake designer$

A cake designer can earn an endless amount of money depending on the demand in your area. The best way to figure out what you should be charging is to visit similar businesses ranging from high end to lower end and see what they charge and how their business is going. A friend of mine did it in NJ and after expenses, her profit was $52,000. Less than the salary of a lawyer per year(depending on state), which is what her parents wanted, but she is VERY happy. Good luck!

It depends on how intricate you want the cake to be. The more time needed to decorate it adds up onto the price of the cake.

What are two liquids used in cakes?

A dry cake can be the basis for an excellent dessert. Any number of liquids can be poured slowly over the cake so that it is soaked up until the cake is quite saturated. Rum, brandy, or any sweet flavored liquor such as Amaretto may be used. For a non-alcoholic dish, a thin custard such as creme Anglaise may be used, or sweetened heavy cream or the liquid drained from stewed fruit. In the U.S., liquid flavored gelatin (Jello) is frequently used to create a "Jello Cake."

> In all of the above examples, the liquid will soak in more quickly if the surface of the cake is pierced all over with a long-tined fork or a skewer before pouring on the liquid. When custard or gelatin is used, the cake should be refrigerated.

Yes, vanilla extract normally is added to white cakes and frostings, although it usually is included in boxed mixes. An additional teaspoonful of vanilla might improve the taste of a cake mix.

Where can you find modeling chocolate?

Stores that sell cake decorating supplies may carry ready-made modeling chocolate. A number of online retailers also carry modeling chocolate. However, if you are still unsuccessful in finding it, you should also know that you can make your own, if you so desire. Simply Google "modeling chocolate recipe".

One recipe for modelling chocolate that I found is as follows:

Chocolate Clay (Modeling Chocolate)Ingredients:
  1. *10 ounces semisweet chocolate (coarsely chopped chunks or chips)
  2. 1/3 cup light corn syrup

*Note: the chocolate can be substituted with almond bark, or colored candy disks to create different colored flowers

Instructions:

Using Microwave: In a shallow bowl, melt the chocolate in microwave (be careful so that the temperature does not exceed 100 degrees F.) for 2 minutes; stir. If chocolate is not completely melted, return to microwave for 30 seconds at a time and stir until smooth.

Using Double Boiler: Place the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot water and stir until melted.

  1. Add corn syrup to the chocolate and mix well (scrape all the corn syrup into the chocolate with a rubber spatula).
  2. Using a rubber spatula, stir and fold mixture, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl well, until no shiny syrup is visible and the mixture forms a thick ball.
  3. Pour mixture onto a waxed paper sheet and spread with the spatula until it's about 1/2-inch thick; let it sit and stiffen, uncovered, for about 2 hours.
  4. Use at once or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.
  5. Your Roses or bows will harden after a few days at room temperature and can be saved by storing in a cool, dry place.
  6. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO REMEMBER IS NOT TO TOUCH THE CLAY TOO MUCH. IT GETS VERY STICKY AND BECOMES HARD TO HANDLE!
