Baked Goods

Pirtelö · ^

Hello, ITT we post homemade baked goods. If you bake better than I do, please do not post here as my self esteem is fragile and I will lose all motivation to continue my baking adventures. In fact, please consider it mandatory to leave a comment like 'wow, I'd stuff this cake so far down my throat it'd reach my asshole'. Thanks in advance!

How'd you get into baking? These look really good and im jealous, I'd stuff this cake so far down my throat it'd reach my asshole!

Kinda a cop out to blame my mom but she hated baking and so we never had any baking goods and ingredients or books around and so i missed out on all that as a kid.

▼ vanilla cake with mascarpone raspberry filling & whipped white chocolate ganache frosting

actually had major issues with the whipped chocolate ganache for this one,
a. because my gel food coloring isn't fit for chocolate coloring
b. my blue ganache split as I was piping, I had to remove it completely, had no more white ganache left to cover the blue marks, so it's kinda blue stained but I also added some pink stains in the middle to make it look "intentional". yeah trust me bro ofc it was meant to look liked a stained shit.
c. I couldn't get the ganache to be white, but more like some weird off-white color. either my purple pigment isn't pigmented enough or people be fucking lying

Actually pretty much same story here, my mum absolutely hated baking although when she did it was pretty decent. She also never had any baking books or guides, just some notebook where she wrote down recipes just to never make them. She also absolutely hated the kitchen in general, she hated the mess etc so I only picked up cooking and baking when I moved out.

Sometimes I feel like her attitude really gets to me to this day, I get really nervous if the kitchen is "too messy" but when you bake and decorate it WILL get messy because shit goes everywhere. You can't ever do it too clean especially if you're in learning stages.

Baking is both really fun but also frustrating, especially since half the time you'll find yourself mid-baking googling shit like "what to do if my cake is ......." "how to fix ........" "can ........ be fixed after ..........". LITERALLY what I did yesterday when my ganache split, you kinda end up feeling like in an episode of steins;gate when they microwave bananas and don't know wtf is happening

Instead of triplequadraposting like usual I'll also add that while cooking is slapping random shit and it works well (which is why cooking is easier to pick up once you get the gist of the very basic shit, e.g "don't burn butter") baking is the total opposite, it's more like if a chemistry lab was edible. What helps is - being a fat ass bitch that enjoys food (which I am) & READING. I find that most people that complain baking is like super difficult or it never goes for them don't READ

Baking is arguably harder than regular cooking, I'd also shove this cake so far down my throat and out my asshole.

((DJ Khaled voice)) another one

▼ new york style cheesecake w frosting

I think mascarpone cream is genuinely one of the most genius things to ever exist, shit's so easy to make it's lowkey embarrassing, pipes beautifully & tastes GOOD. while buttercream is superior texture and look-wise, it tastes like ass. tried once where the amount of butter is cut with chocolate, still tastes wayy too sweet. tldr big ass.

Funny enough, i really like getting into the why and how's of cooking and found that cooking really does boil down to that. Its pretty fascinating. But yeah, oil/fat, salt and toss some shit together, add some acid at some point and you basically cant go wrong. Unless you burn it.

My problem with buttercream always was that it makes the cake way too fucking heavy and id get sick from it... well that and it doesnt taste that good, too. I actually prefer baking/sculpting marzipan on my cakes, but you cant pipe that so that limits its use somewhat.

Pirtelö · ^

marzipan is super controversial I'd personally shove an entire block down my throat without blinking but most people seem to really dislike it because they're stupid and gay
