Hou to Bake Good Cake
Hints for the UnWise

Oven and Careful Watching and Handling
as Upon Batter Itself

n sudden lar, az this will cause the light
est most successful cake suddenly TO col
lapse or develop heavy streak. Never

taken from the oven, but loosen the edges

with the sugar. Separate the whites from
the yolks OF the eggs and beat both until
lieht and fcamy. Sift the flour with the
baking powder and a good pinch OF salt
this latter ingredient improves any cake.
Of course. the manner of mixing must
be followed as given In the selected recipe,
hut the general plan is to add the yolks Of
tho eggs TO the creamed butter and sugar
,ben alternately the flour and the milk,
and lastly the sthiy whipped egg whites
and the hayoring. All cakes should be
beaten thoroughly with an overland"
motion, as this method allows plenty OF
air TO get into the batter and thus renders
the cake light.
In making sponge cake 1t is well TO sift
the sugar as well as the flour and to DO
ALI the beating of the batter before the
whites NJ the eggs are added. Then fold
them lightly or cut them INTO the cake
