Bread is served in various forms with any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, and used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as sandwiches, and fried items coated in bread crumbs to prevent sticking. It forms the bland main component of bread pudding, as well as of stuffing designed to fill cavities or retain juices that otherwise might drip out. Bread has a social and emotional significance beyond its importance as nourishment. It plays essential roles in religious rituals and secular culture. Its prominence in daily life is reflected in language, where it appears in proverbs, colloquial expressions ("He stole the bread from my mouth"), in prayer ("Give us this day our daily bread") and in the etymology of words, such as "companion" (from Latin comes "with" + panis "bread"). 1.2 OBJECTIVE The Objective of this unit is to provide: 1.

Because of its richness, pound cakes typically have light flavors and are served plain or topped with a basic glaze. Kahlua Fudge Cakes manage to pack a lot of rich chocolate flavor into a two-bite treat. It is important to remember when you are baking foam cakes that the batter needs to go in the oven as soon as it's ready in order to prevent the egg whites from deflating.

  • Mocha Chiffon Cake
    Mocha Chiffon Cake Light and airy cake made with chocolate and a hint of coffee…perfect for the afternoon tea or make it elegant by decorating as you like. I have been baking lots of cake lately and chiffon cake still one of my favorites…it is so easy and stays fresh and moist for days…depending on my mood I serve the cake with fresh fruit, some confectionary sugar or when needed I dress the cake with fresh whipped cream or layers of ganache. The combination of flavors is unlimited, chocolate, coffee, orange, lemon, strawberry, vanilla… just to give some examples. – What is chiffon cake? Chiffon cake is very light, airy and fluffy cake made mainly with vegetable oil, eggs, sugar, cake flour and any liquid from milk to juices. – What is the method used for chiffon cake? Chiffon cake does not use any baking agent or butter, only vegetable oil and egg whites beaten into meringue as a leavening agent. – Why should you make chiffon cake? Because the texture is super soft, light and moist and almost melts in your mouth. Moreover, you can make it with all kind of flavors and serve plain or with any kind of frosting you desire. – Why you should not be intimidated by chiffon cake? There is really no secret…just mix the egg yolk portion with all the liquids and flour, set aside and beat the egg white to meringue until the soft-stiff peaks forms…fold gently and bake… In my opinion the trick is to beat the meringue to the right stage and fold correctly…other than these two steps, there is really nothing scary about the baking the perfect chiffon cake or any kind of foam cake.

  • ACTIVITY 3: Cakes: Unshortened (Foam Cakes) & Shortened (Butter
    ACTIVITY 3: Cakes: Unshortened (Foam Cakes) & Shortened (Butter Cakes) There are two types of raised cakes: (1) Foam (unshortened) cakes and (2) Butter (shortened) cakes Foam cakes/Unshortened cakes: Foam cakes have a high proportion of eggs to flour. They are leavened solely by the air beaten into whole eggs or egg whites. They contain very little, if any, fat and have a spongy texture. This is a category of cakes that are made with lots of stiffly beaten egg whites, which makes them light and airy. An optimum foam cake is fine, even textured. It is leavened by steam. The three categories of foam cakes are: Those that contain no fat Angel food cakes Meringues Dacuoises Those where the only fat is from egg yolks Sponge cakes Some biscuits Those that contain fat (butter, shortening) plus egg yolks. Genoises Chiffons FOAM/UNSHORTENED CAKES I. OBJECTIVE At the end of the session, the students must be able to: a. Identify the different ingredients of a foam cake, b. Prepare and manipulate the different kinds of foam cake; c. Appreciate patience, and perseverance in making foam cake. II.
