Easy How to Slice a Whole Cake

cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
I've been slicing cakes this way for ages. The cake in the photo had lots of fruit on top, which I had to remove before slicing. That's why the whipped cream looks a little jaggy. Some cake may have a really soft sponge and cream, but you only need to warm your knife to get nice results.
Wipe the cream off of your knife before each slice. If your cake has hard cream, you can heat your knife over a gas flame instead. If your cake is soft, the whipped cream will melt a little when you slice it right away. To prevent melting, let the knife cool a bit before slicing. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

Fast & Easy Marbled Cake

Fig Cake
This is a fig version of a fruit butter cake that came from my British mother-in-law who makes it with prunes.The original prune version tasted so delicious, so I looked for a good fruit substitute in Japan, and found figs to be the perfect fit!Since fresh fruit is used to bake this cake, it is also delicious on the day it is baked.The cake becomes more moist the next day, adding another level of delight.

The Trick to Making a Beautiful Decorated Cake
I wrote this because I managed to make a beautiful cake and I wanted to remember how I did it, plus I wanted to show juniors at the store I used to work at.Rough Estimate:10 cm: Whipping cream 150 ml Sugar 16 g (8%)15 cm: Whipping cream 250 ml Sugar 20 g18 cm: Whipping cream 300 ml Sugar 24 gWarm up the knife when you cut the sponge cake.Wipe the spatula with a paper towel after every use.If you remove any of the cream from the cake, don't use it because it has cake crumbs in it. (Since it's wasteful, you can use it in Viennese coffee.)Piping the cream covers the surfaces so don't touch it too much. For 1 cake mold. Recipe by sweeterm


My Way to Remove a Chiffon Cake From the Pan
Chiffon cakes are tightly stuck to the pan, so it's surprisingly difficult to take them out. I've had several failures removing the sides, so I came up with this method.There are several ways to unmold a chiffon cake...I'm not very good at using a knife around the sides, so I don't use it (except for just the top 2 cm). I also don't have the courage to take it all out by hand. I used a palette knife meant for chiffon cakes around the funnel, and a petty knife around the sides. Recipe by Stylish Mama

Make your boxed cake better
Have you noticed the shrinkage of boxed cake mix in the last 10 years from 18.25 ounces to the current 15.25 ounces. It affects my recipes. My cakes weren’t as good. I found you can add texture back to your cake and have less shrinkage by adding 6 tablespoons of all purpose flour to the box mix and whisk it together.

Chocolate Cake
I made this cake imagining a cake which was made in a cartoon on Valentine. If you know what I am talking about, please give it a try.The amount of sugar for the pound cake is for the cake to be slightly sweetened. Adjust the amount to your liking If you make a cut in the dough before baking the cake, the cake would be baked nicely. Please make the time to chill after putting the creamy chocolate in between the cake to be at least 3 hours. Unless it will fall apart when you take it out. Recipe by Sarichirusan

Sliced Almond & Pear Cake
When I was an intern in New York I was invited to my German professor's home. This cake was served at that time. I loved this cake so much, which suited my tastes perfectly, that he gave me the recipe. I have cherished this recipe for a long time, and having made this cake so many times, I have now adjusted the ingredients and ratios to my own liking.Adding sliced almond instead of ground almond to the cake batter is the key to this recipe. This cake has a lot of it so the sponge itself is not that fluffy, but the crunchy texture and the soft pear are an unexpected match. Recipe by Usagi no Cima. (For a 16 cm round cake tin.)

Easy! Kabocha Squash Tart Cake Shop Style
A long time ago, the wife of a farmer who my mother used to work for gave us this tart! It was so good that we asked for the recipe! It's so tasty that it makes a great present! You really can't fail with this. My friends loved this when I gave it to them as presents.Divide the tart dough into two, roll out one portion until it's wide and thin, and press it into the cake pan!If you mash the kabocha well, it will be smooth. If you mash it roughly, it will be fluffy.I started off baking it at 340°F/170℃, then when it started to change colour, I reduced it to 320°F/160°C. Recipe by momoko0211

Roll Cake
Fluffy roll cakes taste great but the sponge tends to break quite easily so I improved the recipe and made it moist as well.Please adjust the amount of cream you use to your taste (I have a bit left over when I prepare 150 ml).When rolling the sponge, make sure you start with a tightly rolled center so that you can end up with a neater shape. Just be careful so that it doesn't crack. Recipe by *Halu*
