Mini Layer Cake FAQ
Mini cakes are a delightful treat enjoyed at many occasions. The most common issues up and coming bakers face with baking mini cakes involve the baking time, maintaining moisture, flavor infusion, and decoration. Unlike their full-sized counterparts, mini cakes require a shorter baking time due to their size, which can result in them drying out if not watched carefully. Incorporating flavors can be a challenge too due to the small cake size. Lastly, although the decorating part can be fun, it can also be tricky due to their petite structure. To get the most out of your mini cakes, use a reliable recipe that has been tested. Understand that due to their small size, the flavors need to be more concentrated. Additionally, when it comes to decorating them, less is more. A little dab of frosting and a simple decoration like a sugar pearl can go a long way! There are a few hacks that can come in handy like using a cookie scoop to portion out your batter evenly in the cake molds, or using a squeeze bottle to infuse flavors into your cakes. Even for the frosting, icing bags can provide better control.
