How do you bake a birthday cake?

5 STEPS TO A BRILLIANT AND TASTEY CAKE!!!

Baking a cake is pretty easy, but to make it a birthday cake, you need to decide what you want the birthday cake to be yourself. I can tell you how to make a CAKE, but I can't decide the theme for you. Xxx

Ok. You will need:

* Self Raising Flour

* Margerine/Butter

* White Sugar

* 2 Eggs

* Bakery Weighing Scales

* 2 Bowls

* 1 Baking Tin

Before you do ANYTHING, grab that baking tin and smother butter all arround it and put a sheet of parchment paper at the bottom. This helps to stop the cake from sticking.

After that, you pour 12 ounces of Flour into the bowl on top of the weighing scales. When you have your flour weighed out, put the mixture into bowl number 2.

Next, you do the same as you did with the Flour to the Butter and the Sugar.

Fourth, you need to crack the eggs straight into the bowl with the Flour, Butter and Sugar in and wisk it all together until it's creamy and smooth and soft.

Lastly, put all the mixture into the baking tray and stick it into the oven for 1 and a half hours at 180 DFH.

I hope I helped!!!
