I baked a raspberry white choc. cake for the bridal show tonight and it is DRY! Is there something I can put on it to make it moist?? Thanks so much!! Michelle
You could use a simple syrup: http://www.cakecentral.com/cake_recipe-2963-liqueur-flavored-simple-syrup.html

I've never tried the simple syrup like suggested above...sounds like something I may have to do sometime. I hope it works for you.
Personally, I would try the syrup if it were for my family or friends that would give an honest opinion. If it were for a Bridal Show...I wouldn't chance it. I would only stick with recipes I personally have done a gazillion times. That way it is a true showcase to what the Brides can expect with their cake. That's just my opinion though. There are a ton of ways I've "saved" cakes over the years. But, for my Brides...I would start over from scratch.
Simple syrup might work depending on just how overbaked it is and how much of it is overbaked.. I had a quarter sheet cake that somehow overbaked on one corner, it was a low side, and I simple syrup'd it and it came out just fine.... but that was just one corner, ya know??
Do you have time to make another?? Let us know what happened with it!
