Because the cake is too precious to be wasted.
As a baker, you know how many times your precious batter and cake go waste. Sometimes recipe demands a huge quantity, and after mixing a batch, you realize you are left with extra batter. Also, while carving cakes, a lot of that precious cake goes waste while trimming. It is often a heartbreaking sight for a baker to see their delicious cake go waste. But there is a solution to this problem. You can use the cake batter and cake trimmings in many ways. A few of them are mentioned below.
The best way to use a leftover batter is to freeze the batter. So, whenever you need to bake a cake in a jiffy, just thaw the batter and pop it in the oven.
Or instead of freeze the batter. Bake the cake out of the remaining batter and then wrap and freeze it for future use.
One of the yummiest ways to utilize cake batter is to make delectable cake waffles. Just take some cake batter and pop them into the waffle maker, and Voila! Your cake waffle is ready. Serve it with a dollop of ice cream or maple syrup.
You can also make some adorable cupcakes to go with your cake. Scoop out the batter in cupcake liners and pop them in the oven.
Cake pops are very popular and the best way to use cake trimmings. Just crumble the trimming and add some leftover frosting and mix it. Then make balls of this “dough” and stick some lollipop stick. After freezing the cake balls, dip them in chocolate ganache and decorate with some cake sprinkles.
Just imagine how heavenly your Oreo milkshake would taste with crumbled chocolate cake in it. You can add different cake flavours to your milkshakes to make them more decadent.
You can add the cake crumbs for decorating your cake. For example, red velvet cake looks amazing if you add red velvet cake crumbs to it.
You can even serve the evergreen desert, fruit trifle to your guests along with the cake. Layer your cake with fresh fruits, custard, dry fruits and whipped cream.
So, try one of these ideas and make your cake making process more fun and fulfilling.
