Mardi Gras is a big deal mainly because Louisiana is the only state that celebrates it. As always, there is a famous dish that comes along with this holiday and it is King Cake. King Cake is a dessert that is made up of bread, filling, and colorful icing. King Cake was created in the mid-1800s and was made to celebrate the 12th night after Christmas. This dessert represents the coming of the three kings or three wise men (Dave). There are many simple steps to creating a King Cake. After creating the strips of dough for the King Cake, some braids then bakes the strips together which creates the unique look to the dessert. Some people may wonder what makes this thick piece of bread a dessert. Well, after the dough bakes into its unique form, someone splatters icing all over the cake and covers the dough in Mardi Gras colored sprinkles (purple, green and gold). Sometimes King Cakes will be made with different kinds of filling such as, cream cheese, strawberry, apple, or other types. The Mardi Gras colored sprinkles that are on King Cakes symbolize powerful words. Purple stands for justice, green stands for faith, and gold stands for power. The meanings of the colors were created in 1892 during the Rex Parade (Dave). The world’s largest King Cake was baked in 1998 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and it weighed 350 pounds (Dave).

There are several effects that influence under and over mixing a shortened cake batter. For instance, the "four common methods of mixing cakes are the conventional method, conventional sponge method, muffin method, and quick-mix method. The amount of mixing needed for a high-quality cake varies with the ingredient proportions and the batter quantity. Undermixed cakes may yield a cake of good volume, but the texture is coarse and the cell walls thick. Overmixing tends to produce a compact cake of smaller volume which may have tunnels or become heavy or soggy" (Scheule, M.B.A. B.,2013). I personally, find this information being very interesting because for the most part my cakes have always lacked volume

The cake is named for the three kings who visited the Christ child. Over 300 years ago, the cake started out as a dry French bread type of dough with sugar on top and a bean inside. Now king cakes come in the sweet brioche dough variety and also donuts filled with several fillings, and a small plastic baby to represent baby Jesus.

Secondly, combine the eggs and granulated sugar in a large mixer bowl until mixture is thick. Then add the canned pumpkin in the large bowl with the eggs and sugar. Mix the dry ingredients in the large bowl with the rest of the ingredients. By now the baking process is half way through. Pour the mixture on the greased pan with the wax paper.

(If using a dark-colored pan, begin checking for doneness at 11 minutes.) When the cake is finished immediately loosen and turn cake onto prepared towel. Be sure the towel has enough powdered sugar when rolling up the cake so it will not stick. Carefully peel off the wax paper

Your peers and elders have had experience so they can assist you when you are making unerring choices. When I first began baking, I made triple chocolate brownies. I did not have much knowledge of baking. My mom, who has baked many times in her life, suggested that following a recipe is necessary to produce a pleasant outcome. She provided me with this segment of advice because she has an understanding of what can happen if I decide to measure accurately.

Do the words Georgetown cupcakes make you salivate in your mouth? If not then you haven’t lived a full cupcake life. It all started on our last night when my aunt told us they had a cupcake shop a street or two down from ben and jerry’s . Little did I know it was the cupcake shop that I have been watching on Netflix for about a year. As we walked into the store we got a heavy smell of something I could only describe as a little piece of heaven. As we made our way through the line the lady asked me what I would like to have and, at that point I wanted to say everything. But the initial flavors that me and my cousin were drawn too were blueberry cheesecake, red velvet, and my favorite chocolate lava. As we each took a bite I could feel a piece of my soul leaving my body. It turned out to be even better than I expected, which now makes Boston my favorite place to

Baking is a skill that I have always been eager to learn. This past summer, I learned that I am unfortunately, intolerant to dairy and have a gluten sensitivity. Most places do not offer gluten-free and dairy-free options so it has been difficult for me to find baked goods that I am able to eat. I have been meaning to learn some recipes that I can bake and eat that work with my dietary needs. Many of the vegan and gluten-free chocolate cakes that I have tried so far have been very good, and is something that I want to try making myself.
