Well, tonight was a blundering mess of comedic events. I have a cake due Friday and was trying to cook it tonight so I could just frost it tomorrow. Well, I now have some cake to experiment making something called cake balls…but I still have to cook up the cake that’s due Friday.
I finally found out what happens when you overfill your pans. Suprisingly, this is the first time I’ve done that with all the cakes I’ve made.
Did you know that when you over fill your cake pan, the cake slowly rises, and then busts out the side and dribbles down the side and onto the bottom of the oven. I tried to continue cooking the cake, but one just wouldn’t cook all the way through. The second one cooked, but just didn’t look great inside.
I cut off the top of the done one and it tastes fine. But, since it doesn’t look great, I don’t want to give it to a customer. So, now I’ll be able to make cake balls and expand my portfolio.
In the past something like that would have sent me spiraling into a pissed off mess. For those of you who have read my past posts regarding depression know what I’m talking about. Thankfully, tonight I just find it comical and will try again tomorrow.
