Easy Baking
Do you frequent the baking aisle at the grocery store? You’ll be amazed what can be found here! Flour is the basic ingredient for baking. There is a variety of flour, such as all-purpose (white), cake & pastry, bread, whole wheat, multi-grain etc. Since the global shortage of wheat more than a year ago, the price of wheat hits a record high. I remembered getting a 10 kg of all-purpose flour for $ 4.99 when it was on sale. Nowadays, the regular selling price is $ 11.99!!
Feeling lazy and want to do some “no-fail” and quick baking? What about the cake/muffin mix? To prepare batter, simply add milk and eggs into the mix. I’ve tried before and they are pretty good; moist and tasty. It’s highly recommended to those who like to try baking themselves for a change!
Besides cake/muffin mix, there is also ready-to-bake cookie dough. It comes in a cylindrical shape. Simply cut the dough into slices (individual cookies), bake them, and serve! How simple is that!
Here comes a new creation–the Shaker cupcakes/muffins! What is it exactly? It says on the bottle “add milk & shake!” Wow… that’s fancy! Add milk into the bottle and shake it up. The batter will be ready in no time. Subsequently, pour batter into cake pan and bake! Easy enough?
Despite the convenience of cake mix, I prefer baking from scratch. This is what I’d call the “real” baking. It offers more flexibility and many at times, more challenging. As a result, baked goods have finer texture and taste yummier!
