Hi, I'm a complete novice. I have a child with food allergies, which means I have to bake for every birthday (hers and others). She's having a birthday party soon and I'm tying to figure out the best way to fill a half sheet cake:
1. Torte the cake and have thinner layers, with the filling in between?
2. Bake two half sheet cakes and stack for thicker layers, with the filling in between?
Also, I'm doing a pineapple filling, using preserves. Should I:
A. Line the cake with a thin layer of frosting first
B. Mix the preserves with frosting
C. Just put the preserves straight on the cake?
For a novice you say you are I suggest baking 2 layers for ease of handling - they can each be thin or smaller like two 9x13s That will give you close to the same # of servings The lgr thin ones might be a bit of a problem handling if you haven’t done so before As for filling you can use
Well darn hit wrong key:( Use the filling as you wish I’ve used it straight & mixed w/b’cream - guess it depends how “strong ‘ you want it to taste I never did put b’cream on before adding but I know some people - depends on how “runny” your filling is but make it very thin like smear on then scrape it almost all off :) Oh & make a dam of b/c around the edge 1st to hold it from leaking out
Need more information don’t hesitate to post If you can’t get it to post here as an answer just start a new post w/ reference to this one We all understand
