Cakes

Here are all the basic types of cakes, from layer cakes, cupcakes, pound cakes, quick breads, and muffins to cheesecakes to sponge cakes such as génoise, chiffon, and angel food. You will see the different techniques of mixing the batter used for butter and oil cakes, which depend on chemical leavening (baking powder and/or baking soda), versus sponge cakes, which get their texture from stiffly beaten egg whites or whole egg foam. You will learn about mixing, baking, unmolding, cooling, and storing the cakes, as well as frosting the finished cake.
