Prepare Pans and Oven
Before Mixing Batter

Pans should be prepared and
oven heated before mixing the cake
batter. For success, care must be
taken in measuring, all measure
ments being level. There are two
ways to add the shortening, For in
expensive cakes, containing a small
quantity of shortening, the result
will be found satisfactory if the fat
is melted and added to the batter af
ter the cake is all mixed. For the
better class of cakes, where one
half cup or more of shortening is
used, the shortening is beaten to a
cream. or until smooth and waXy.
This can be accomplished easily
if the mixing bowl is rinsed with
hot water, then wiped dry before
shortening is placed in it, Add sugar
gradually to the creamed shortening
and continue to beat until mixture
resembles whipped cream. Separate
the eggs, beating yOlks until thick
and lemon colored, and the whites
until stiff. Add the beaten yolks to
the creamed butter and sugar mix
ture. Add the flour, sifted with the
baking powder, and milk alternately,

beating well. Flavor and fold in

Beating Before Adding
Eggs Increases Firmness
The more the cake is beaten be-
fore the egg whites are cdded, the
firmer will be its texture. Sepa-
rating and beating the eggs gives
light, fluffy cake. The eggs can
be added to the creamed sugar and
shortening mixtures one at time,
unbeaten, but beating each egg Wig
orously when adding to the batter
will produce a cake which is moist
and fine grained, and one which
keeps in good condition for some
time.
Cakes should be baked as soon as
mixed. So much depends upon the
proper baking, and the best way to
assure satisfactory results is to time
the cake and divide the baking into
quarters. In the first quarter the
mixture should rise in the pan In
the second quarter it should continue
to rise and brown in spots. In the
third quarter the top OF the cake
should be uniformly Drowned. In the
last quarter the cake should shrink
from the pan, when it should be
baked.
If in doubt as to whether the cake
should be taken from the oven, test
it by touching lightly in the center,
II baked, the mixture will ,spring
back, but if not quite cooked it will
hold the impres Of your finger. This
rule for timing applies to all cakes
whether layer on loaf, or where a
slow or medium oven is used.
