How much does a box of cake mix weigh?
It can vary. A pound cake is simply named "Pound cake" because it needs a pound of sugar, a pound of flour, and [i think] a pound of butter.
How do you make cake rise very high?
Baking soda and baking powder.
Either self raising flour or baking powder is used to makes it rise. This works by a chemical reaction; as the cakes heat up the chemical reaction is activated and gas is released, which caused the air bubbles in the cake, which make it rise.

Candy tastes good because it is made of sugar, which is a substance the body needs to function, and therefore it causes cravings.

How much cake should one put in a pan?
You can grease a cake pan with butter, margarine, shortening, lard, vegetable oil, or vegetable oil aerosol spray. One economical trick is to save the foil wrapper on butter and margarine; these are excellent greasing tools. An alternative to greasing a cake pan is to line the pan with parchment paper, or to use silicon cake pans that are non-stick.

When were welsh cakes first made?
Make it and find out ;) Ingredients
225g/8oz self-raising flour, sieved
110g/4oz (preferably Welsh) salted butter
1 egg
handful of sultanas
milk, if needed
85g/3oz caster sugar
extra butter, for greasing
Method
1. Rub the fat into the sieved flour to make breadcrumbs. Add the sugar, dried fruit and then the egg. Mix to combine, then form a ball of dough, using a splash of milk if needed.
2. Roll out the pastry until it is a 5mm/¼in thick and cut into rounds with a 7.5-10cm/3-4in fluted cutter.
3. You now need a bakestone or a heavy iron griddle. Rub it with butter and wipe the excess away. Put it on to a direct heat and wait until it heats up, place the Welsh cakes on the griddle, turning once. They need about 2-3 minutes each side. Each side needs to be caramel brown before turning although some people I know like them almost burnt.
4. Remove from the pan and dust with caster sugar while still warm. Some people leave out the dried fruit, and split them when cool and sandwich them together with jam.
How long can uncooked cake batter sit unrefrigerated?
If the recipe calls for baking soda, it must be panned and baked immediately.
If the recipe calls for baking powder, you have more time to get it in the oven and you could even refridgerate( with some loss of rise) and bake later( not days later but hours later).
Which city is called land of cakes?
Scotland is known as the Land of Cakes, for many reasons. One reason being they are famous for their oatmeal cakes; Also, there are many cakes named after places in Scotland.
You can make all kinds of margaritas and frozen drinks. For non alcoholic options, you can make fruit slushes, frozen coffee drinks and yogurt smoothies. I find that the best way to make drinks is to put ice and frozen fruit, then fill with liquid until the ice/fruit is covered by the liquid. This makes a good consistency.
Can you add vanilla extract to a cake after baking?
Usually you do, yes.
More Information:
Vanilla improves the flavor of cake, but it is possible to bake cake without adding any flavoring other than the natural flavor of the butter, sugar and other ingredients. Alternatively, other flavor extracts may be used in place of vanilla, such as almond, lemon or orange, rum, brandy, and so forth.
Why do I have bubbles in my cake mix?
Sour dough mix is loaded with yeast. Yeast produces carbon dioxide and alcohol as it digests the sugar in the batter. The gluten in the batter allows the carbon dioxide bubbles to form a persistent foam.
Can you substitute 3 eggs for 3 teaspoons mayo in carrot cake?
I have successfully experimented with ground linseed to replace eggs in muffins and pancakes.
In a separate container, use 1 rounded tablespoon fine ground linseed (flax seed)
with 2-3 tablespoons cold water per egg replaced. Allow to stand 10 minutes or so.
You may need to add more water to bring the blend to the consistency and quantity
of one egg. You could also add a teaspoon of light flavored oil to replicate the fat in the egg.
The blend becomes 'slimy' like raw egg white and has roughly the same binding quality of eggs, but you do lose some of the flavor they impart.)
You should cut a cake to make the edges smooth and it makes it easier to frost.
Improvement by TheGoldenWing:
Also to make it more bite size and sanitary (Imagine 5 people sharing 1 cake with different forks and eating it without cutting it.)
What country first made funnel cakes?
The history of Funnel Cake history is debatable. Popular opinion is that the treat was popularized by German immigrants in the state of Pennsylvania who served the treat during harvest festivals and holidays. The name comes from the way the dish is prepared, which is pouring batter through a funnel into hot oil. Some sources claim the treat is a descendant of the oliebol which are a dessert similar to donuts. The reality is many cultures have variations of the funnel cake, such as the Spanish who have a treat named Churros. One thing is for sure, today the dish is one of the most popular sweet treats in America. They are a staple of Amusement Parks, Sporting Events and wherever there are social gatherings or celebrations
Why should you not keep opening the oven door while baking a cake?
Moisture continues to escape after the item is removed from the oven. At the same time, cooling begins, which causes the gases still inside the item to contract. If the protein structure is completely set, the product may shrink slightly but hold its shape. If the product is underbaked, however, the contraction of gases may cause it to collapse

When was the waffle cone invented?
A simple recipe which produces a light and crisp waffle or ice cream cone

4. Switch on the cone maker, preset of temperature and preheat it to 250 CO .
5. Pour a generous 1/3 cup ( 20 ml) of batter onto preheated waffle grid. Close the lid; press it down lightly to level batter; heat for about 1 minute each, or until surface turning golden brown.
6. Remove waffle and roll it into cones with the cone-forms to serve for ice cream or other foods.
