Huh...

When did the weekend almost sneak up on me? I suppose I should get the notes for this weekend's classes done. Doing a gum paste workshop, now with period sugar and building large structured cakes.

[recipes] Cake recipe

AKA: Auntie Alesone's period inspired, but not historically accurate in any way, shape or form, recipe for cake.

This is the recipe that I will be using for coronation. It is what's called a hi-ratio cake. This means the ratio of sugar to flour is skewed towards sugar. It is a high rising,moist, flavorful yellow cake, with a tight crumb. This makes it ideal to stack. Currently I have 8-10 of cake in my freezer, hanging out.
