Eggs-a natural leavening agent

Eggs are indispensable materials for baking, which can not only increase the color and aroma of finished products. Moreover, after the egg is stirred, air will enter the structure of the egg, and tiny bubbles rich in air will appear, which can make the cake bulky.

Sugar-Natural Moisturizer

In addition to increasing sweetness and nutritional value, sugar also has the functions of softening and moisturizing. Sugar keeps the moisture in the material, makes the batter delicate, shiny and easy to color, and can also delay the drying, aging and anti-corrosion of the finished product.

Oil-irreplaceable crispness and fragrance

Generally, there are solid animal cream and liquid vegetable oil (olive oil, salad oil, peanut oil, etc. ) is used to make cakes, and butter is mostly used in butter cakes to increase the fragrance and rich taste of cakes. Sponges and hurricanes are mostly vegetable oils, which can soften tissues when added to cakes.

Salt-A Natural Flavoring Agent

In the process of making cakes, refined salt is usually used, and the dosage should not exceed 3% (to adjust the taste). It is mainly used to reduce the sweetness of cakes and make them palatable. It can also bring out other unique flavors, increase internal whiteness and strengthen gluten structure.

Flour-determines the taste of snacks.

Flour can be said to be the strengthening support of the cake. After mixing with eggs, oil and other materials, it can present different tastes such as soft, crisp, solid and chewy. How to choose flour can be chosen from gluten.

Protein content of high gluten flour is the highest, about 12.5%- 13.5%, which is suitable for making bread.

The protein content of medium gluten flour is the second highest, about 9.5%- 12%, which is suitable for Chinese cakes.

The protein content of low-gluten flour is the lowest, about 8.5%, which is suitable for making crisp, soft and chewy baked products such as biscuits and cakes.
