Another outgoing Decorated Envelope going locally in Australia. I love black or coloured envelopes and black is one of my favourites, sadly the white pen smudged in a few areas and also on the back.
Umm yes I have used an international 10c stamp on the envelope because I cant find my local stamp stash and we are in strict lockdown so post offices are closed (I think) and I wanted to get this envelope posted asap.
Not sure if mail is being collected at all.
I was cleaning up the computer yesterday and discovered a whole heap of envelopes I received that I hadn't posted. So I shall divide them up into a few posts.
These were received in November 2015.

So a friend kindly let me taste her Chiffon cake along time ago (probably in the last year). I fell in love with this very rare cake, rare because you can't buy it in shops, at least not in Brisbane and no one I know makes it. It uses a heck of a lot of eggs, one recipe says 6 and another recipe says 10.
So as you can see from this photo I would have used up 30 eggs for these three flops lol. I can't remember what I did wrong, so I can't tell you what not to do.
I was told to up end the cake tin like this so the cake would stay up and not collapse like a souffle, well we know what happened to that instruction. Still something I did wrong for this to happen.
Almost perfect, as you can see the left side of the pan has cooked cake on it, I went to put the pan in the oven and swiped it over the back of the chair and almost lost the whole pan of cake hahaha. Success because the cake didn't crack on top.
Like this one below, I think this one is too many eggs, a large egg isnt 90grams as I have found out its 55g, so if you weigh 6 x 55g eggs that how much you should use
The almost perfect slice, light and fluffy and hardly any holes. I am aiming for no holes. I think the holes are because there is still air inside and wasn't combined well enough.
After a few successes another flop, not sure what happened here either lol.
Iced the almost perfect cake
Sometimes the top cracks like this, again I think its too many eggs, some of the eggs I used had two yolks and that could be the reason, too much yellow.
As you can see this cake was very small and hardly came up the sides.
The next few look like too little egg and too little mixing.
This one is good, this is the cake upside down so I could ice it.
The hat moved lol. Again too much egg made too much mix
This is the perfect amount for a cake
