Alright, so today I tried to use an egg beater to whip egg whites, and it was quite an experience. I mean, I’ve seen it done on cooking shows, and it looks so simple, right? But let me tell you, it’s a bit of an arm workout! First off, I cracked a few eggs, being extra careful to separate the whites from the yolks. I ...

Okay, so I wanted to make some egg tarts today. I’ve never actually made them from scratch, so I thought it would be a fun little project. I started by grabbing some puff pastry from the store – I know, I know, not exactly homemade, but I’m not a professional baker, okay? First, I thawed the puff pastry. While that was happening, I whisked together ...

Today, I tried something new in the kitchen and I just gotta share the whole thing with y’all. So I had this box of cake mix, just regular stuff, nothing fancy. And I had this idea – what if I throw some instant pudding into the mix? I mean, why not, right? Pudding makes everything better, so it should work in a cake too. I ...

Okay, so today I wanna talk about low-gluten flour. What the heck is that, right? I mean, we’ve all heard of gluten-free, but low-gluten? That’s a new one for me. So, naturally, I had to dive in and figure it out. First things first, I grabbed my phone and started googling. Turns out, low-gluten flour is made from a type of wheat that’s naturally lower ...

Hey everyone, so today I decided to mess around with some frozen egg tart shells. I picked up a pack of those Burry 3-inch sweet dessert pie shells from the grocery store the other day, and I’ve been itching to try them out. I got this idea because I’ve seen a lot of people raving about them online, saying they’re super versatile and can be ...

Okay, so, I’ve been wanting to make one of those super cute heart-shaped cakes for a while now. I kept seeing them all over the internet, and I just had to try it myself. I finally got around to getting a heart-shaped cake mold, and let me tell you, it was quite the adventure. First, I searched for the mold. I browsed a bunch of ...

Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another one of my baking experiments. Today, I decided to mess around with cheesecake flavoring. It all started when I was craving some cheesecake, but I wanted to try something new, you know, not just the regular kind. So, I gathered all the usual suspects for a basic cheesecake batter: cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and a bit ...

Hey everyone, so I gave this sesame bread thing a shot, and let me tell you, it was quite the adventure. I’ve always loved the smell of fresh bread, and sesame seeds just add that extra bit of, you know, somethin’ somethin’. So, I thought, why not give it a go myself? First off, I gathered all my stuff. Flour, water, yeast, a bit of ...

Okay, so today I decided to do something a little different – I wanted to make some soda crackers, you know, the kind you have with soup or just as a snack. But as I was getting started, I realized I didn’t really know much about them. I mean, where did they even come from? So, naturally, I went on a little deep dive into ...

Today, I want to share my experience with making a train-shaped cake. You know, one of those cute ones for a kid’s birthday party? It sounded simple enough, but, boy, was it a journey! First off, I went and got myself a train-shaped baking mold. It’s one of those silicone ones, pretty nifty. The place I found it had tons of shapes, but I was ...
