It's my Laddoo's 17th Birthday so cake तो बनता है न भाई

Garv loves cake with minimal frosting and zero whipped cream. Dense and moderate sweet Chocolate cake with dark chocolate is his favourite. So keeping all his likes in mind, I baked this cake.

The cake has eggless Chocolate sponge baked using Belgium cocoa powder, soaked with black coffee and finally covered with Dark chocolate ganache. To give it a rustic look I didn't smoothen the sides and added a border of Golden Luster. Just to fill the top, I added fresh strawberries.

I will be sharing the cross-section of the cake in the next video. It came out super moist, rich and uber delicious 😋

Happy Birthday Laddoo! Mumma loves you so much 😘

Witnessing myself on the billboards across the city was an experience beyond words. It was surreal, heartwarming, and utterly overwhelming. That image, shining under the city lights, wasn't just a personal achievement; it was a testament to the journey, the struggles, and the triumphs. Thank you, 2023, for gifting me this once-in-a-lifetime moment that I'll cherish forever. ❤️

As I step into 2024, I do so with a heart full of hope and arms wide open. Here's to a year brimming with even more achievements, and continued growth, both personally and professionally. Here's to living, learning, and growing.

If you have spent any time baking, you’ve likely come across the phrase “Do not overmix.” This is because once you add flour to a recipe, mixing encourages gluten development, which creates a chewy or tough texture. We knead bread dough to activate gluten so that the bread has a good chew factor but we don’t want that in tender cakes and muffins. So When a recipe says, “do not overmix,” stir only until the batter is uniformly mixed.

I'm sure this will help you to get fluffier and soft cakes and muffins next time.

Keep following for more such informative content.

Happy Baking

Sweet Tutti Frutti Bread Recipe- Save the recipe for later

Many of you asked me to share the recipe of sweet bread. So here it is
Ingredients
400 gm All Purpose Flour
5 tbs Refined Sugar
15 gm Fresh Yeast/5 gm Active Dry Yeast
1/2 tsp Salt
2 tbs Custard Powder
1/2 cup Tutti Frutti
3 tbs Oil
2 tbs Milk For Milk Wash
250 ml Water
Instructions

Take 50ml LukeWarm Water. Add 1 tbs of Sugar and Yeast. Mix it well and keep it aside until it froths.
In a mixing bowl, take all the dry ingredients.
Add activated yeast solution in the bowl and knead a dough. While you knead, add water as per the requirement.
Knead the dough for 10-15 minutes for it to become non-sticky and elastic.
Keep the kneaded dough in a greased bowl and cover it with cling wrap. Keep this aside for about 30-34 minutes or until the dough doubles in volume.
After the first rise, take the dough on a surface, lightly dusted with flour. Punch the dough to release the air.
Spread the dough on the surface and sprinkle tutti frutti. Gently fold the dough and knead it for another 5 minutes. The purpose is to mix the tutti frutti evenly in the dough.
Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf pan.
Cover the loaf pan with a cling wrap and keep it aside for another second rise. The dough should again double in volume.
Preheat the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for about 10 minutes.
After the second rise, remove the cling wrap. Give milk wash to the dough.
Bake the loaf in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes at 200 degrees
Once the loaf is baked take the loaf out and de-mould it.
To keep the top crust soft, brush the crush with butter and let it rest on a wired rack for 2 hours, before slicing.

Hope you like the recipe. Now try it and share your feedback with me. Keep following for more amazing recipes.

50-50 Bread Recipe- save for later but you can thank me now 😜
Ingredients -
250 gm Whole Wheat Flour
250 gm All Purpose Flour
5 gm Instant Yeast
5 gm Sugar
5 gm Salt
270 ml Water
2 tbs olive oil
To activate yeast, dissolve it into lukewarm water with sugar. Let it rest until it froths.
In a large mixing bowl, add flour, salt, and activated yeast solution. Start kneading the dough by adding water to it. Make a soft and little sticky dough.
Transfer the dough on a lightly floured surface. Add oil to it and knead it for 8-10 minutes until the dough becomes non-sticky.
Place the dough into a greased bowl and cover it with cling wrap. Place the bowl into a warm and dry place until the dough doubles in volume.
Once the dough is doubled in volume, take it out on the kitchen counter. Punch it to release the air.
After punching, roll the dough into a rectangular sheet and shape it into a tight log.
For this recipe, I have used Pullman loaf tin (10×4.5×4.5).
Grease the tin and its cover with butter. Place the dough log into the tin with the seam side facing the bottom of the tin. Close the lid and let the dough rest for the second rise.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 200 °C. After 30 minutes of resting time, place the tin with a closed lid into the preheated oven for 35 minutes.
After 35 minutes, take the tin out from the oven. De Mould the bread.
Let the bread rest on a cooling rack for a minimum of 2 hours before slicing.
Slice the bread and enjoy.
