Britta cake/Britta kook

Heyhey,

Sorry I haven't made a post, but I have been really busy with midsummer holiday and just simply being with family at home


Today I have little time, so I  show you meringue recipe and  how our Britta cake looks like.
It's simple and super yummy for sugarteeth. ;)

Also I made Pavlova for the first time i my life and for parent's 25th anniversary. That's really sweeet cake, but mum loved it.

here is the Meringue recipe: 

U need for making big oven pan-sized plate ( about 30x40 cm)
oven on 160 degrees.

5 eggwhites( at room temperature)
17 table spoons of white granulated sugar- about 215 grams.
0,5 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of starch
1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar for  flavouring.

Do:

Beat eggwhites  a little, add salt,
 beat more until you seee bubbbling.
now add sugar one by one until all is done..keep beating eggwhites until hard tipped point. / turn the bowl on top of your head lol.

now add carefully  and stirring with love starch and flavouring. 
place it on the oven pan which has the baking paper on.

place it in the oven and right away lower the heat to the 110 degrees. set a timer on 1h and 25 minutes.

now just wait.

Meanwhile you could touch it to see if it has started harden or not.
in the end its hard on top and a bit chewy on inside.

with that same recipe you could make a Pavlova cake base too :)

Pavlova with whipped cream and strawberry sea and fondant rose.

 You could find these cakes and much more from our homecafe MTÜ Mäe-Koda, Riidaja 1,Estonia.



Every day is a new day, so stop worrying about the yesterday.

Fluffy Strawberry marshmallows

Hello!

I have tested lately a lot and this time I did Strawberry flavoured marshmallows.
To be honest I tried making zephyr for the first time,but I realized that this technique needs right ingredients. SO IF the recipe telling you to take agar agar instead of zelatin, then there is a strong reason.

Anyway I got marshmallows which still tastes good and tomorrow I will put them into sale at the café.

I love cooking and creating, so I am not sad at all that things didn't work out, hehe.

Keep it up and love what you do!

Your  passionate confectioner,

Caramel Pound cake

Hello.

I start my blog with  my last homemade good which is Pound cake with caramel sauce.
All is done from scratch and with passion.


Usually I use old family recipes to give them new meaning in nowadays life. SO many good recipes are forgotten just  because the World can offer for us new tastes and technologies, but in my opinion so many "ancient" goods are still wonderful.
They are worth to show them to you and if I have time I will give also some recipes. Defenetely some are too specific and special that I keep them ;)

I am sorry if my pictures are not very good :)


So, I think you all might want to try  making this Pund cake, so I give you that recipe.
Also I  have been thinking a lot about sugar art and making spun sugar, Pulled sugar and blown sugar, but right now I do not have  big  kitchen, so I step back a bit and do just easier sugar art with homy tools.

For the Pound cake you will need: 

1 bread mold.

4 eggs( medium ones)
Granulated sugar  0.24( kg)
Butter ( 82% or even better) 0.24 
Flour 0.32

Vanilla for adding extra taste 0,015 (1 tbl sp).


Method: 

Whip  butter until its fluffy, add flour with vanilla powder, stir.

In another bowl beat eggs with sugar until airy and fluffy too.

Add egg mixture to the butter-flour mixture, stir together and put it into a mold.

Bake in the oven at 180 degrees for 40 minutes.
The crack is must be, so If you see that your cake is cracking on top, then you have done right job, now just wait until its cooked and have  brown topping. :)

As I love cooking, I love also testing. So I made this caramel sauce with intuiton, so I can't give you any recipe, because  I did not measured..I trusted my eyes and heart :)

but the proportions between every ingredient are: 
Sugar-water-double cream-butter
2-1-1-1/4

for sugar decorations melt 4  tablespoons of granulated sugar in thick saucepan at the low temperature until its melted and have light brown to brown colouring.  do not burn!!!


BE very careful because Sugar is extremely hot!!

Have fun  and keep your eye on my blog.

Every day is a new day with new chances to take!
