HELPFUL BAKING HINTS
Step 2: As the ingredients start to form
a ball, scrape down sides of bowl
with a plastic spatula then remove
your dough.
CAUTION: Do not use the mixer near the
edge of a counter or table top where there
is a risk of falling off.
Step 3: Depending on what recipe you
are preparing, manually kneading
the dough may be required. Place
dough onto a well floured surface
and knead until dough is smooth
and elastic. This should take
approximately 3-5 minutes
depending on quantity.
Step 4: After kneading dough, place into
a well greased, large mixing
bowl. Place the bowl in a warm,
draft-free area and cover with a
clean dish towel. Allow dough to
rest until it doubles in size.
Step 5: Plunge a fist into the centre of
the risen dough to expel excess
air. Then fold outer edges of
dough into the centre several
times. Remove dough from bowl
onto a lightly floured surface.
Step 6: Place dough into baking tins, or
cut and shape dough for making
rolls, small loaves, or buns etc…
Step 7: Cover the dough with a clean dish
towel and place in a warm,
draft-free area till it rises. Then
glaze the surface and bake.
Finishing Effects
Topping breads and buns:
1. Sprinkle loaves or buns with sesame,
poppy, or caraway seeds before baking.
2. Drizzle shredded cheese on top of loaf
5 minutes before baking is over.
3. Sprinkle icing sugar on sweet buns or
muffins after they have cooled.
Glazes:
1. Any time before or during baking
glazes can be brushed on top of dough.
Before Baking:
1. For a shiny crust – brush
top with cream or evaporated milk.
2. For a glossy crust – brush with beaten egg
whites.
After Baking: For a matt finish, brush with
melted butter or margarine.
Helpful Hints for a Successful
Cakes
1. Make sure all ingredients are at room
temperature and warm the bowl if
weather is cold.
2. Add flavoring and essences to the
shortening for a better flavor.
3. When creaming butter and sugar beat
until light and creamy.
4. Beat whole egg until incorporated
into batter before adding the next
when more than one is required.
5. Divide flour and liquid into two
portions and alternately add with the
liquid on low speeds.
6. Cooking times and temperatures are
meant only as a guide. Light mixtures
should spring back when lightly
touched and heavier cake mixes
should be tested using a toothpick.
Fruit cakes should be tested using a
small sharp knife. This should be
done towards the end of the
suggested cooking time.
Reasons for Poor Baking Results
Sponge cakes shrinkUnbalanced ingredients, over beating
egg whites, sudden changes in
temperature or draught when removing
from oven.
Cakes do not RiseMainly due to over beating, but can also
be caused by oven being to hot during
the first part of cooking.
Centre of Cakes SinkToo much fat, raising agent, liquid or
sugar; too little flour; under cooking or
cooking too slowly.
Cakes Run Over Edges of PansOverfilling cake pans, oven too cool, too
much sugar, too much raising agent.
Hard Outer CrustToo much flour, too little sugar, over
mixing, oven too hot.
Moist, Sticky OutsideToo much sugar, over beating, under

HELPFUL BAKING HINTS
Ingredients
Butter:
Butter is made up of approximately 80%
milk fat (cream) and is churned over time
to produce butter. Butter is a stabilizer
that also adds texture and flavor. Butter
comes salted or unsalted, it is best to use
unsalted for cake batters. Clarified butter
has the milk solids and salt removed
making it ideal for pastry making as it can
be heated to higher temperatures than
regular butter.
NOTE: Margarine is a good substitute for
butter. However because it is made from
vegetable oils it may alter the end results.
There is a variety of margarines to
choose from when diets are a concern.
Yeast:
Yeast is a raising agent used in doughs.
It is a microscopic living organism that
grows rapidly in warm, moist conditions.
The yeast plant feeds on sugar and
expels carbon dioxide which expands the
gluten. Do not allow the water
temperature to exceed 104 °F when
foaming yeast, as this will kill the live
yeast. It is best to foam yeast with
temperatures between 79°F - 86 °F that
are draft free.
Substitutes
If you need to substitute ingredients in a
recipe, check the following alternatives:
1 cup self raising flour = 1 cup plain
flour and 2 tsp baking powder
1 cup plain flour and 1 tsp baking
powder = ½ cup each of plain and self
raising flour.
Sultanas = equal measure of any other
dried fruit.
Golden Syrup = equal measure of
molasses.
1 cup buttermilk = 1 cup fresh milk and
2 tsp vinegar of lemon juice.
Hints for Measuring Ingredients
A good recipe depends on correct and
careful measurement of all ingredients.
All measurements of dry ingredients
should be “leveled off” (scrape surface of
a dry measuring cup with the flat end of a
knife). Tapping the measuring cup lightly
on a kitchen counter or table before
leveling. If your dry ingredients has any
lumps, make sure to remove or break
them up prior to mixing.
Raising Agents:
For best results pay attention to details.
Check for lumps and crush them if using
baking soda before measuring. Ensure
that yeast is fresh, and water is at the
right temperature.
Cheese and Breadcrumbs:
Pack grated cheese and soft breadcrumbs into the cup pressing lightly to
obtain best results.
Fats and Oils:
The easiest way to measure ingredients
such as butter, margarine or shortening
is to place ½ cup of water into a
measuring cup then add margarine etc
until the water level raises to the amount
required minus the ½ cup water. Discard
water after measuring.
Helpful Hints for a Successful
Dough
Preparing the Yeast
Step 1: For the dry yeast to be
activated it needs to ferment.
To do this place warm milk,
sugar and the tepid water into
a bowl, add dry yeast and mix.
Let stand in a warm place until
mixture starts foaming, ie:
bubbles come to the surface.
This process will take
approximately 10 minutes.
WARNING: Ensure that you do not
overheat the milk or water as high
temperatures kill the yeast.
Preparing the Dough
NOTE: Ensure dough hooks are properly
in place.
Step 1: Place the dry ingredients into
the mixer’s bowl and position
onto the base locking the bowl.
Turn the speed control
switch to “LOW”. Begin to
gradually add the liquid
ingredients to the bowl while
mixer is on a low beater
speed.
NOTE: Using a spatula to scrape the
sides of the bowl while mixing is helpful.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to feed the
dough into the dough hooks with your
hands, spatula or any other utensil while
the mixer is operating.
Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.

TIP: Start mixing at slow speeds and
increase speed gradually to prevent
ingredients splashing out of the mixing
bowl. When adding dry ingredients,
particularly flour, lower the speed
temporarily until ingredients are
combined.
TIP: When kneading yeast doughs, use
‘LOW’ speed to achieve best results.
