I'm really sorry I didn't mean to hijack your post..but back to the Cake Porn. My 16 year old just comes out of his room and says, "dang, you're still on the computer?" I say, "uh, yeah, what's it to ya?" He says, "what are you buying now?" Like he knows me so well.. I say, "nothing, really" and he says, "well, what are you looking at?" And I said, "Cake Porn!!! Wanna See?" At first he had this really disgusted look on his face like my mom is looking at porn, ewwww, and then duh, the light came on and he realized what I said and he says, "well mom, if that's how you gets your rocks off staring at cakes all night, I guess that's ok..but are you almost done I want to get on the computer?" What a nerd..
Letmebeurdesignr, you are not the only one. I am a banger too! It gets the air out and you get a level cake without the large air pockets. We should start a thread called "The Happy Bangers" 
Wonder how many would read the post because of the title. 
I saw Paula Deen bang her cakes yesterday on her show. She was making a caramel cake with her son Bobby.
This is sooo interesting. I have never banged my pans, I didn't know there was a difference. I'm going to try it next time to see what happens. Great insight!
I was taught this in Home Ec in jr. high (back in the day when they called it "Home Ec" and not "Life Sciences"; and when they called it "Jr. High" - 7th and 8th grade - and not "middle school")
Can you tell how old I am?

LOL!!! He may never want cake again! After all, cake porn and pan bangers may be too much for anybody.

Oh yeah, I am definitely getting very strange looks from him today and he hasn't asked what's for dinner yet? I usually get that atleast 5 times before noon. I thinked I warped my poor baby.. 
I am so glad to find others who appreciate my husband's term "Cake Porn" though I have no doubt someone somewhere probably said that before my husband did. It is SO appropriate for the way we drool over cake pics here... "undressing" the cakes with our eyes, trying to figure out how the cakes were done.

Wow... and that fits right in with Cake Porn!
