Brief introduction of cake
Cake is a kind of pasta, usually sweet. A typical cake is made by baking. Cake materials mainly include flour, sweetener (usually sucrose), binder (usually eggs, which vegetarians can replace with gluten and starch), shortening (usually butter or margarine, and cakes with low fat content will be replaced with concentrated juice), liquid (milk, water or juice), essence and starter (such as yeast or baking powder).

cake
These cakes are symbols of ancient religious myths and miraculous superstitions. The early economic and trade routes imported exotic spices from the Far East to the north, nuts, toilet water, citrus fruits, dates and figs from the Middle East, and sugar cane from eastern and southern countries.
In the dark ages of Europe, these rare raw materials were only available to monks and nobles, and their pastry creations were honey gingerbread and flat hard biscuits. Slowly, with the frequent trade, the eating habits of western countries have changed completely.
Soldiers and Arab businessmen returning home from the Crusades spread the use of spices and recipes in the Middle East. In several major commercial towns in Central Europe, bakers' trade associations have also been organized. At the end of the middle century, spices have been widely used by wealthy families all over Europe, which has further enhanced the imaginative pastry baking technology. When nuts and sugar became popular, almond paste became popular. This almond paste was baked in a relief mold made of wood carving, and the patterns on the mold were related to religious teachings.
Cake originated in the West, and then it was slowly introduced to China.

The origin of wedding cake
Wedding cake, it is said that it first appeared in ancient Rome. The word cake comes from English, and its original meaning is flat bread. At the same time, it also means "happiness".
In ancient times, when rich children held weddings, they had to make a special cake, not only for the bride and groom at the wedding reception.
Eat, but also invited the guests to eat cake. The guests expect themselves to share the happiness of the newlyweds. Therefore, the cake was cut on the bride's head at that time.
Guests invited to the wedding in Europe also have a habit of stacking their own bread with spices on the table, so that the bride and groom can kiss each other on both sides of the "bread mountain". At this time, the bread mountain also symbolizes happiness.
At first, the cake was made no different from bread, by kneading milk and flour together.

Origin of Black Forest Cake
cake
In fact, it should be more appropriate to translate Schwarzwaelder Kirschtorte into "Black Forest Cherry Cream Cake". Because Schwarzwaelder in German is black forest, and Kirschtorte means cherry cream cake. After careful study, the Black Forest, to put it bluntly, is really just a "cherry cream cake without chocolate".
According to legend, in ancient times, whenever there was a good harvest of cherries in the black forest area, farmers would not only make the surplus cherries into jam, but also very generously put cherries in the interlayer of the cake or carefully decorate it one by one when making cakes. When making the whipped cream of the cake, a lot of cherry juice will be added ~ and this cake, which is mainly made of cherry and whipped cream, will become the so-called "black forest cake" after it is spread from the black forest to other places!
Although most pastry chefs in Germany use a lot of chocolate when making black forest at present, the real protagonist of black forest cake is the delicious and rich cherry! In the past, there were cases in Germany where consumers sued a black forest cake for its low cherry content. Therefore, the German government has also made relevant regulations on this national treasure black forest, such as the cream part of the black forest cake, which must contain at least 80 grams of cherry juice!
So the black forest really doesn't mean black. And black forest cake is not synonymous with chocolate cake! The Black Forest is a mountainous area located in the southwest of Germany, which belongs to the black forest area from Baden Baden, baden-baden to Freiburg. Even if you come to the Black Forest today, you may not be lucky enough to taste the black forest cake without chocolate everywhere. However, when you have the opportunity to enjoy the black forest here, you may wish to pay close attention to the small cherries in the cake, so that you can get to know the black forest again, and don't forget to feel the freshness hidden in the depths of the taste buds.

The Birth of the Middle Ages-Souffle)- (France)
Why do people invent this Shu Fu Li that makes people feel like they haven't eaten anything after eating it? This is closely related to the social atmosphere of greed and insatiable desire at that time. At that time, the wealthy people spent several times more time eating than working. Often, there were three or four people's dinners, and there were more than a dozen or twenty dishes to eat. In the end, the guests only moved their knives and forks and tasted them. After the banquet, all afternoon, only the sound of burping was heard one after another. This social phenomenon of "afternoon burping" lasted for half a century, and it was not until the people who caused social cleansing came to an end that "even nothingness" could not escape materialization and was doomed to collapse due to excessive expansion. 」。
In order to correct the corrupt diet, chefs specially use tasteless and weightless protein to change it into this nihilistic food; However, the chefs are afraid of over-inflated nihilism, and as predicted, they will eventually collapse, so they try their best to keep Shufuli elegant and fluffy before serving it to guests.

Sponge cakes completely rely on eggs (whole eggs or divided eggs) to form pores in the cake tissue. Typical sponge cakes only contain eggs, flour and sugar.

Qifeng cake is an improved sponge method, which was invented by an American chef, except eggs and noodles.
cake
Powder, sugar, vegetable oil and water are also added (to increase tissue humidity and make the taste fluffy and moist), but because the batter is wet and not easy to expand, BP should be added to help the batter foam and expand.

wedding cake
Wedding cake, it is said that it first appeared in ancient Rome. The word cake comes from English, and its original meaning is flat bread. At the same time, it also means "happiness". In ancient times, when rich children held weddings, they had to make a special cake, which was not only eaten by the bride and groom at the wedding reception, but also invited the guests who congratulated them to eat the cake. The guests expect themselves to share the happiness of the newlyweds. Therefore, the cake was cut on the bride's head at that time. Guests invited to the wedding in Europe also have a habit of stacking their own bread with spices on the table, so that the bride and groom can kiss each other on both sides of the "bread mountain". At this time, the bread mountain also symbolizes happiness.
Edit this taste category? Cakes can be generally divided into three categories according to their raw materials, blending methods and batter properties. 1. Pasta cake: The amount of grease in the formula is as high as about 60% of the flour, which is used to lubricate the batter to produce soft tissues and help the batter to mix a lot of air during the mixing process to produce bulking effect. Generally, cream cakes and pudding cakes belong to this category.
(2) Milk foam cake: The formula is characterized in that the main raw material is eggs without any solid fat. Protein, which is tough and denatured in egg liquid, is used to make the cake puffy during the process of batter mixing and baking. According to the egg materials used, it can be divided into protein (such as angel cake) and sponge (such as sponge cake) using whole eggs.
(3) Qifeng Cake: It is made by mixing batter and foam, and changing the organization of foam cake.

2. Realistic Attitude When you start to look at pictures of cakes, try to be realistic, otherwise it may exceed the economic strength of your. Sometimes some newcomers want to make a cake like what they saw in the magazine, but they don't know that it's 100 yuan. It is impossible to make the same cake at the price of 25 yuan. People must find out whether the cake is published in a magazine or not, and whether it is a brand cake.
3. The price of icing Next, let's talk about icing, which, like cakes, is a general term for some nouns. Hand-made dough icing is much more expensive than buttercream. Mainly because it involves a lot of labor. Dough icing is very special because it is a labor-intensive product.
4. About cream cream doesn't mean low quality. You can change different styles with cream, and it's easy. Using cream can make the shape of the cake smooth.
5. Other decorative cakes are covered with chocolate coats-this is a major feature. It is more expensive than cream, and rubber adhesives or spice additives and flowers often need to be made by hand. These also raise the price of cakes, and sugar roses are cheaper than sugar orchids. The more exotic the flowers, the higher the price. So how to save money? Use less sugar flowers and replace them with flowers.
cake
The best way to influence the style of a cake is to decorate it with flowers. Flowers can change the mood of the cake, and flowers are a cheap way to give the cake a new charm.
6. Reduce expenses Obviously, the size of the cake will affect its price, but the cake designer put forward several suggestions. Sometimes the cake maker will make a smaller cake with small pieces of cake, or fill it with ice cream and berries. If the couple uses a simple dining car or a small table, it is recommended to use a smaller cake, or a cake with a large base can be used at a large wedding. Smaller cakes enable newcomers to buy cakes that suit them, but they are a little small. If you buy a three-story cake for 100 people, plus four 10-inch cakes, you can meet the needs of another 100 people at only 1000 yuan, otherwise you need to spend more than 3,000 yuan.
7. Reduce the cost. Newcomers should be aware of reducing the cost. If there is a baker at your reception place, but you bring another one, you may have to pay for the use of utensils, so please pay attention to this problem when you book the place, and the saved money can be used for the cost of wedding cakes.
