Some people prefer the taste of their own baked creations. For all those industrious people, here are a few myth-busting tips to bake the perfect cake.

·         Many seasoned bakers believe that alcohol based cakes shouldn’t be heated in the oven at high temperatures. According to them the alcohol evaporates, robbing the cake of its vivid flavor.

 

 
This is only partly true as remnants of the rum or vodka still remain even after going through high temperatures. Not all of it vaporizes, leaving the cake with a light flavor.

The people who wish to rid their cakes of all alcohol lest the family gets intoxicated can rest assured too. The nuggets of the drinks that do remain are too little in quantity to have any untoward effects.

·         Another adage popular among our grandparents and parents is that opening an over door before time can deflate the cake, spoiling its fluffiness and shape. This myth couldn’t be any more untrue. The rising of a cake is dependent on the temperature of the oven which is not affected by opening the door a few times. While opening it is not advisable due to the risk of scalding, you can be sure that the cake won’t be affected in any manner.

But do not open and close the door as if it’s a game. This might lead to loss of heat inside the oven, hurting the shape of the cake.

·         Many health fanatics prefer to add margarine to their cakes instead of butter. Cakes themselves are not considered very healthy and adding margarine will not change that fact. Pound to pound, margarine and butter have a similar calorie count. The nutrition details might be slightly different but trust us, there isn’t a lot to warrant adding margarine. 

Only butter can act as a suitable agent as opposed to margarine.

·         Preparing the perfect red velvet requires expertise and deft hands. Experienced bakers know that adding any food coloring will mar the authenticity of the cake. Novices resort to food coloring if their cake fails to achieve the desired color. Instead, learning how to create the perfect mixture is a better option. The red velvet owes its color to a mixture of buttermilk, vinegar, and cocoa. Do not try cheap tricks because food coloring can be detrimental to health too.

Firstly, begin with the vase. Different plants require different kinds of vases. Mostly, going for a wide mouthed one for your flowers is the best bet. Make sure the vase is long enough to support the stem but not too long as to cover the leaves. Do not stuff the pot with flowers, instead give them ample room to breathe. Clean the vase with a disinfectant cloth to remove any harmful bacteria before putting in the flowers.

The most common advice you’ll receive regarding your plants is to water them daily. But how much water to give and when is of primary concern. The water shouldn’t be too hot or too cold and should be filled till a quarter of the flower’s stem is underwater. Make sure that no leaves are submerged. Replace the stale water with a fresh mug every day to provide the flowers with ample nutrition.

Add 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and 2 tablespoons of sugar to keep all bacteria at bay. An Aspirin tablet, dissolved in the water will help maintain the PH balance. A few drops of vodka, too, can prevent the ripening of the flower, thereby increasing its age. Moreover, if you keep it in the fridge every night for 8 hours, it’ll retain much of its freshness for longer.

One more crucial step is to cut the stem properly at an angle to facilitate the movement of water within. As we all know, water is conducted throughout the plant via osmosis and a flat cut stem isn’t conducive to the process.

Keep the flowers in a well-lit area of the house but far away from direct sunlight. Keep the fan and AC off to prevent wilting due to dehydration. Also another underrated tip is to keep the flowers away from fruits. Fruits secrete ethylene during the night, which in turn speeds up the maturing of the flower.

Lastly, avoid daffodils altogether if you plan on keeping other flowers as well. Daffodils secrete a sap from their cut stems which can suffocate the other flowers.
