Program Description

Event Details

Before the invention of baking powder all cakes were leavened with yeast or whipped egg whites.  Most of those recipes have been adapted to baking powder now, but there are still a few cakes that rely on yeast to develop the rise needed for a soft yet strong crumb.

We'll discuss some of these recipes, just in time to use them for your holiday baking.
