A Collection of Our Delicious Cake Recipes
Before we get to our cake recipes, here is a little history.The word "cake" is one of Viking origin, from the Old Norse "kaka" which means a baked flour confection that is sweetened with sugar and honey. It is then mixed with eggs and often, but not always, with milk and fat. The texture is porous which comes from the mixture rising during cooking. Cakes are made from different combinations of refined flour, some form of shortening, sweetening, eggs, milk, leavening agent, and flavoring. There are literally thousands of cakes recipes (some are bread-like and some rich and elaborate) and many are centuries old. There are even cakes that have no flour.
