So half way through baking my chocolate wasc cakes I "remembered" that I forgot to add the almond and vanilla flavoring! Agghh! I knew I was too tired to be baking! Anyhoo, how bad is it going to be and is there anything I can do after the fact? Thanks!

Relax, it should be just fine! Just a 'milder' flavor of the original cake base!

sheww...thank you

Don't worry, once I use 2/3 of a cup instead of a 1 cup in my cake batter. It happens!!

So, curious... did you taste? How did it turn out?

No taste test...went to the freezer Just a side note as I'm pretty sure it had nothing to do with the extracts...my 8" choc. wasc collasped. Guess it wasn't my night for baking.

I had to throw away a double batch of chocolate cake today (2-10", 2-8" and 2-6") because I forget to add sugar!!!!
Who forgets sugar? Well apparently I do.

I have learned to measure everything out first. Then start mixing...not a good thing to have to start over.

I make a list. Then tick them off. Started after leaving the cocoa out of a chocolate cake.

A long time ago I was canning peaches and I accidently put pickling salt in a beautiful batch of peaches, I had peeled all of them took all seeds out and I thought it looked weird so I stuck my finger in and blechhhhhh it was salt and not sugar, ruined the entire kettle of peaches I have a million stories like that one hehehe.......its how we all learn.

I once forgot to crumbcoat before fondant because I was distracted by my family bugging me! What a mess that was...it's in cake disaster archives now...

Thanks for sharing all your "wth" stories with me! Guess I'm not the only one

today im making a 3 layer yellow cake that needs 1cup of butter and after i cut and weighed the butter i put the excess in another bowl and then hubby came into the kitchen to talk to me and then i picked up the wrong butter bowl (about 1/3 cup) and used that instead.... and didnt realize my mistake until everything was mixed and then, only then, i noticed the correct butter bowl sitting on the bench

*sigh* in the bin..... i hate wasting good produce

Hey I but a container of extra cake mix in the pantry with my cake supplies, My DH was looking for flour to fry chicken wings, So you can quess how that turned out. nothing like chicken wings fryed in sugar and flour LOL. Now I label EVERYTHING. I still can't figure out how it was my fault the bag of plain flower was sitting right there in plain site.
