Guest guest Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 > Which carrot cake recipe? The coconut-carrot recipe (cake is delicious - we eat it out of the pan lol) I think I may have printed it out from SCD Diet or SCD Recipes. First time I used a blunt cake mold. Yesterday I used the regular round molds. It stuck both times!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Okay. Here's the trick. Line the bottom of the cake pan with wax paper. After it is done, carefully use a knife or spatula to ease the cake away from the edge of the pan. It should lift right out after that. Once it has cooled slightly, VERY carefully pull the wax paper off the bottom. If you get in a hurry the cake will tear. This is how my mom made cakes back in the days before " non-stick pans " were around...LOL. For the bundt pan you can do the same, but it will take a bit more fancy cutting. Trace the bottom of the pan and cut it out. Jody mom to -5 and -7 SCD 16 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Jody and Coral, Even better than the wax paper is parchment paper. It is my secret baking weapon. I use wax paper for some items but for stickier foods I always go for the parchment paper and it hasn't failed yet. You might let the cake come to room temperature first also - cool it on a rack before trying to remove it from the pan.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 " The size pans that people use would be of great help to me also. " The best breadpan I have is rather small: 3 inches by about 8 inches. It has a teflon/Tefal coating.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Ok, I am " Feingold frantic " here... What type of chemicals are there in the Parchment or Wax paper? Would it contaminate the top layer?? If a little piece of paper stays on the cake, would it be " ilegal " to eat it?

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Coral, The paper won't stay on the food. But don't eat it. I bought my parchment paper at the HFS. Jody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
