Wat is CMC?
I'm still a student in this baking things oh, for the icing of pan, do I need to ice the entire pan, before I place my cake ontop for decoration. If so how do I make the cake to stick to the ice pan.
And for a three tier cake, do I need to ice each cake seperately, if so, what can I use to make them stick together… Oya make una help a sister abeg

If I understand u well, u mean the board where the cake will be placed, and on top of the turntable. The board should first be splattered with butter icing, it'll act as the sticking agent. There r different approaches to the tiered cakes, u may choose to ice each separately and use butter icing to stack, or if ur expertise permits, stack them together using. Butter cream in between, then roll out a large fondant to cover all.
Thanks Eya.I asked for umm khaleel's blog.this cake looks good.I bake too just to eat wit no icing.think I will try d icing bit.
Looks really nice! Can't wait to try this
Cake looks good well done.
I always prefer the butter icing over the sugar one, do you know how to make it?

Yes I do. In fact that's the one I am best in.
Can you please give details on how to make one? I tried it with butter and confectioners sugar and added a but of lime for flavor. I beat it till it was fluffy but I realized the icing was not thick enough and it kinda melted.
Anything I did wrong?
Anachunam who ask u 2 like it, do u know gud tins? Ace dem no dey chop cake inside fastin? Dats a gud 1
So wt makes it double layered. MrsAjaryee
please how can one achieve a less sugar cake? 400g sugar on 500g of flour and butter taste too sugary for me… can the quantity of sugar be reduced to 200g instead of 400g? please help a sister…
yes u can reduce ur sugar wen baking depending on how sweet u want ur cakr to be bt d important one is dat ur flour ad butter must be d same measurement. please can anyone teach modelling ad gum paste
@Gee Emmy, by my own recipe, 600g of sugar goes for 1kg of flour meaning 300 or evn 250 is ok for 500g flour; I was amazed abt ds measurmnt too bt u knw our tastes differ; so if u feel lyk using 200 it doesn't affect d cake in anyway jst d sweetness. MrsAjaryee
Eya shey u hv come again. When I read comments befor I saw where someone said he/she doesn't like the cake. I cam bk naw and u haff deleted it! Tomoro u will say ur blog is getting dry. Madam 2 faced
Nke a gbasara gi
I was wondering too,y will they say double wen me am seein one layer.hian eya and muslim madam una need glasses abi wetin.mtsheew
If I am not mistaken, a double layered cake is usually baked in 2" high pans and two of the cakes are placed on each other and icied as a single cake
Well I think for 1kg of flour, half a kilo(500g) of sugar should be ok… Plus, it all depend on how u want it though!!!
I can't wait to try it out. How long do I have to bake dis cake? Thanks
Please wat did u use for d write up"Hamid is 6"
hmm
