::*rAinbOw*::: rumbles of chocolate

Tis tiring to bake a cake but the end results (And I do mean the END) are quite satisfactory afterall! After tens of thousand times of failing terribly, I managed to bake a decent chocolate cake for Dan's birthday=) My poor family had to keep eating choc cakes for about 1 month, and some were really rotten ones=P Learned that the easier the recipe is, the more likely it is to flop! As my mum kept telling me all this while: "If you want to bake a cake, put yr mind to it. Dun be so sloppy!" I din believe her at the beginning cuz cupcakes were easy to make n u cant really go wrong even if u did the wrong step! But then there was only 1 main step in baking cupcakes! haa and that is MIX everything!

Dan's birthday 2007 [=FAILED=]

Tasted like brownie. Supposed to be Devil's Food Cake.

My 3rd attempt this year. I decreased the amount of sugar stated cuz thought that usually the cupcake recipes stated too much! Turned out too bitter and weird but texture was not bad! The first attempt resulted in a throw down the bin without even tasting it. It smelled so bad. Reason was I cooked the eggs in the process cuz instructions were not very clear! My second attempt was a chocolate sponge cake. A tat too dry but taste wise not bad=) Din try that recipe again though cuz wanted a rich cake!

My 4th attempt! [=PASSED=]

Tasted way better than the rest! Used the same recipe as the 3rd attempt and added the stated amount of sugar. Turned out fine! Family finished in 2 days.

My 5th attempt! [=FAILED=]

Tried the Hershey's Cocoa Powder Choc Cake recipe. Method was super easy. Turned out crap. Threw away after tasting.
