rar🍲
MAYBE YOU CAN CHNAGE MY MIND
rar🍲
BUT THERE'S ALWAYS TOO MUCH FROSTING AND HTE CAKE IS TOO DRY AND
rar🍲
i also just don't generally like the texture of cake but idk if that's Store Bought problem or smth else
brave vespaeria
oh thats fair
brave vespaeria
ive never made Cake From Scratch but i bet i could at least make u a moist one w a better frosting balance........

if its dry????? that sounds like a storebought problem. i do Not want a dry cake. that suckers gotta be moist or else
rar🍲

i think we've like baked a cake from a pre-made mix as well and i've still been like. Meh. about it.

add an extra egg and.... i forget the other thing. i think it's subbing some of the water with oil or milk?
mintttea
yeah, i think i heard something aalong those lines. we usually make apple spice cake and replace some of the wet w applesauce
mintttea
i do not know measurements.

King Arthur Flour has/had a flourless chocolate torte recipe that is imo definitely worth a try

no frosting needed; texture is not like Standard Cake

brave vespaeria

as a fellow cake disliker, attempt pound cake and fruit. most frosting is fucking gross, glazes are superior, jam improves many things
