What is the general process of making cakes?

Cake Cake refers to a sponge soft cake made of egg paste and its replica with sugar paste, protein paste and cream paste, which is called cake for short. Pastry is divided into three categories: clear cake, oil cake and compound cake.

I. Matters needing attention in cake making

1. When making cakes, the quality of flour directly affects the quality of products. Generally, low-gluten flour is used to make cakes. Because low-gluten flour has no gluten, the cakes made are particularly soft, large and flat. If low-gluten flour is insufficient, it can be made of medium-gluten flour or high-gluten flour with appropriate amount of corn starch.

Another main ingredient of cake is eggs. The bulkiness of eggs mainly depends on the endosperm protein in protein. Only by high-speed beating can endosperm protein wrap a lot of air to form bubbles, which increases the size of the cake. Therefore, when beating protein, it is advisable to use high speed instead of low speed.

3. The syrup for making cake embryo is made of1000g white sugar and 500g water, boiled and thoroughly cooled.

Eggs and sugar should be whipped at high speed, which is required by the characteristics of endosperm protein.

Before baking the cake, the oven must be preheated, otherwise it will affect the softness and elasticity of the baked cake. The equipment for beating cakes must be clean, especially not touching grease, otherwise the cakes will not be loose, which will affect the quality and taste.

5. In the traditional method of making cakes, the inner wall of the bottomed mold is often coated with oil, so the edges of the cakes are often colored and the bottom is darker. Now you can make a cake with a cake ring, just put a piece of white paper at the bottom of the ring instead of oiling. The edge of the cake is colorless and the bottom color is lighter, which can save costs, including the cake on the surface and at the bottom.

After the cake is baked, it is thoroughly cooled, and the paper on the cake ring and bottom is removed until it is used to ensure that the cake will not be air-dried and affect the quality.

6. The baking temperature of the cake depends on the amount of mixture in the cake. The more the mixture, the lower the temperature. On the contrary, the less the mixture, the higher the temperature.

7. The baking time of the cake depends on the temperature, how much mixture the cake contains, what kind of stirring method and so on. Generally speaking, the longer the time, the lower the temperature; Conversely, the shorter the time, the higher the temperature. The cake has low temperature and long time; Cupcakes are hot and short.

8. Cover the cake on the cake board while it is hot, so that the moisture contained in the cake will not volatilize too much and the humidity of the cake will be maintained. In addition, when the cake is hot, the shape is not completely fixed, and the surface of the cake can be leveled by the weight of the cake itself.

9. Use low-gluten flour for sponge cake and medium-gluten flour for pastry. This is because the structure of fat cake itself is looser than sponge cake, and the use of medium gluten flour further strengthens the structure of cake. So as to become more compact and not loose.
