Want to keep your cake moist longer?
We make a good homemade cake... And thinking that it is safe, we leave it on a plate in the open air.
The next day, it lost all its softness and here we are with a very dry "Christian suffocate".
Here's a homemade storage tip to keep it just as good for several days .
To prevent your cake from hardening, simply place a slice of bread above:
1. Take 1 slice of bread.
2. Place it on top of the cake.
3. To keep the cut side soft, cover it also with 1 slice of bread.
4. Prick it with 1 or 2 toothpicks to hold it.
There you go, your cake will stay moist much longer :-)
Now you know how to store a homemade cake.
Simple and effective!
It is very practical to keep a fresh cake without fridge.
And this easy trick works with homemade cakes, but also industrial or pastry cakes.
It perfectly preserves a soft sponge cake, a homemade chocolate cake, a pound cake, or a marble cake.
You can be sure that your cake made the day before will be fresh again the next day.
The piece of bread will act as a shield. It is he who will dry instead of the cake.
Now you know how to store a moist chocolate cake made the day before for the next day.
It also works for storing a yogurt cake, an apple cake and even a sweet or savory cake.
By keeping it like this, you can keep your homemade cake for 3 or 4 days no problem.
This technique works for cakes without filling like cakes.
But that grandma's trick doesn't work for those with pastry cream or whipped cream.
These, we keep them in a Tupperware in the refrigerator, otherwise it is guaranteed food poisoning!
A chocolate fondant cake or a dry little homemade cake is not good, so we put it in the trash.
To avoid having to throw away a cake that was perfect the day before, all you need is 2 slices of bread.
And no need to throw away the slices of bread once the cake is eaten.
No waste , make it into French toast. It's easy and very good.
Another recipe, we break the slices.
They are seared in the pan with a drizzle of olive oil and Provencal herbs to transform them into croutons for the soup.
Nothing is lost and everything is transformed!
