I love cake like a fat kid loves cake.

German chocolate is the Master Race of cake.

Fuck I love cake so much; especially baked cheesecake.

Shit man, I like black forest cake a lot but apple tea cake is something I've always enjoyed too. Then when cheesecakes come into the picture I just get too hungry to think, I need something sweet in me.

I was excited for a minute, OP, cuz I thought that was seafood "cake" (use white bread recipe instead of sweet cake recipe and salmon mousse as frosting or something), but no.
I would eat a seafood cake.

REAL Red velvet cake, with beat pulp and shit.

So fucking dense.


My sister can make a really good one.

>>4761852
Jesus man I can't remember the last time I ate red velvet cake, I need to put that shit on my priorities.

>>4761852
>beet pulp and shit
>real
Do you know what red velvet cake even is?

>>4761871
Yeah Thought of cuzza chocolate rationing. Theres beat pulp in real ones, and it makes it really moist and dense. and thats where the red comes from.

supermarket ones dont have it, and in my opinion aren't real. They're just red cakes.

buhbuhbuhbuhbump

>beat
I think you mean beet, friend

I've all ways been a fan of Upside Down or Boston Cream. But Cheese has gone really high in my books recently.

>>4761959
I haven't had a boston cream ever. Tell me what it's like.

>>4761967
like a boston cream donut but better

>>4761971
what the fuack is a boston cream donut

>>4761975
Go to Tim Hortons and try one

How do I cook a good Bundt cake? They're my favorite by far but mine always turn out kind of nasty.

>>4761880
Except beet was basically only used as a color enhancer.

>>4761979
no

A piece of toasted pound cake served with lemon curd

>>4761994
I dunno, put your batter in a bundt pan and hope for the best? you can add like 1/4 cup flour to it to keep it from falling or something

that looks goddam delish. its hard for me to resist cake of any variety, its the one stumbling black left on my path to joining the high brotherhood of veganism

>>4762016
>watch gif
>if that's not red velvet in there, they dun goof'd
>they dun goof'd
Then dun goof'd. Shoulda been red velvet, not yellow.

>>4761990
"When foods were rationed during World War II, bakers used boiled beet juices to enhance the color of their cakes. Beets are found in some red velvet cake recipes, where they also serve to retain moisture."

from wikipedia

And it does. Very heavy, moist cake. And if you look at a recipe that uses beats(a real one), you'll see that the amount of beets compared to the volume of batter would really have to have some effect on the consistency of the finished product.

>>4762016

That's just fucking creepy.

>>4764291

>tfw no qt gf eating your cake

>>4761805

How can I get the top of my cake to look like that? Cake comb?

mmmmmmmmmmmm

>>4761805
Black Forest

in brightest day...

>>4761959

That looks tastey

its almost here

>>4764291
moar?

>>4765437
That's poor taste. When my family has its annual 9/11 party it is about patriotism and solidarity, not fucking celebrating it.

>>4765437
>>4765493

Thank Obama

>>4765493

americans eat a cake for 9/11? why? I thought that was a tragedy, not a reason for celebration. or is this a cultural thing, do you have cake at funerals?

>>4765514
>do you have cake at funerals?
They have finger foods, sandwiches, and desserts at most funerals I've attended, including small pieces of cake.

My family just uses it as an excuse to get together, be thankful, and remember a terrible event that changed our lives. It isn't really weird to get together for support and include a kind of feast. That is a cross-cultural phenomenon.

Haven't tried what's in the pic. But I like cakes which are a treat for the tastebuds AND the eyes. I mean, any standard cake, when decorated decently, looks enticing enough. But I like it when cake decorators take it to another level without sacrificing the taste.

The organs in the pic are made of different kinds of cake and the ribs are just white chocolate, I think.

>mfw your family has 9/11 parties

>>4765537
They aren't parties as in celebrations. It really isn't that odd and stems from the fact that my sister was working in NYC and it took us hours to get a hold of her. The whole family ended up meeting together for the first time in a while to see her and each other.

Since then it became a tradition to meet up as a family on that day.

sorry, none of the funeral i've been to have served food, and the after gatherings have usually only had the barest of nibbles as a courtesy gesture, much booze for the toasting of the deceased though.

>>4765567
>none of the funeral i've been to have served food
How weird.

>>4765514
no we do not eat cake for such things
4chan is never representative of anything normal or typical

The epitome of Cake Science.

Has to have the exact, precise ratio of pastry to cream. A milligram too much cream, and it's disgusting and sickening. A milligram too little cream, and it's a dry, tasteless carboard-like substance.

>>4765687
You overestimate it too much.

>>4765687
>A milligram too much cream, and it's disgusting and sickening. A milligram too little cream,
You weight cream?

>>4765701
No. Just a hyperbole to get the point across. That cake is a bloody balancing act. If you don't get it exactly right, it's a disaster.

My favorite flavor of ice cream is butter pecan caramel. This is it in cake form. Thank you.

>Cheesecake is a pie

Once upon a time, I was drinking heavily and I decided I wanted to bake a cake. I preheated the oven to ???. I mixed up some flour and milk and an egg and some water and some sugar and a little bit of vodka and something from the spice cabinet that I couldn't see correctly.
I poured it into a pan and then I blacked out. I woke up in the closet, I walked out into the kitchen expecting a mess and I found a perfectly baked and frosted chocolate cake. I felt like a god until my roommate came back and told me that he found me in the shower with a bowl of sugar, apple juice, and strawberry jam, continually stirring it whilst babbling about baking a sweetass cake. He threw that out and told me he was going to the store to get a real cake. Supposedly, I told him that I loved him, vomited, and then gave him a double thumbs up. He came back, thought I went to bed, and left the cake on the counter.

I felt so bad when I remembered that I pissed in one of the drawers of his desk.
