It may prevent a cake failure, thereby saving the waste of ingredients. These are the four most important steps in cake-making, and if followed carefully will help you to make really, good cake. SELECTING INGREDIENTS A good cake cannot be made with pooringredients. For the best results choose only the purest materials obtainable. Cake is a food that contains the most nutritive elements, such as eggs, butter, milk, sugar, flour, etc. Cake is more delicate than bread and needs a more delicate flour. This flour is Swans Down Cake Flour, soft, white, and velvety, made especially for cake and pastry making. Swans Down costs but a few cents more per cake and yet it insures against disappointment and costly cakefailures. Lighter, whiter, finer, better cakes if you use Swans Down. MEASURING i Allingredients called for in any good recipe must be accurately mixed and all measure- ments should be level. This is necessary in order to obtain the same results in each baking. The standard one-half pint measuring cup should be used and the recipe followed exactly. CAREFUL MIXING Itis necessary in successful cake-making that allingredients be perfectly measured and utensils and cake tins be ready before beginning to mix the cake. Always beat the shortening to a cream before adding any sugar. Add sugar gradually, creaming the mixture meanwhile. Add a little sifted Swans Down Cake Flour, with baking powder added, then a little milk and so on alternately until all the flour and milk are used. Beat the batter, never stirring, after each addition of flour and milk. Add flavoring. The stiffly-beaten egg-whites should be next goles in very carefully if recipe calls for same.
