Explain the importance of each of the ingredients you used in making this cake

All cake ingredients are vital because they all play a role in creating a delicious and tender cake. A good combination of ingredients determine the final appearance, texture and flavour of our butter cake. This is my believe.

Flour

  • Flour is one of the main ingredient which provides foundation for the cake texture.It also contains gluten which helps in the cake chewiness and elasticity. It is good source of carbohydrates and fiber. I have not seen or heard about cake preparation without flour. This means that it is a vital ingredients.

Egg

  • The second ingredients here is egg. Egg has important role in cake. It helps in cakes moisturization and richness. It also helps in binding properties which holds other ingredients together. From the experience gotten during preparation, I see that whipped egg incorporate air, helps the cake to rise. Remember Egg is good source protein.

Sugar

  • The most important reason while we add sugar is for taste and sweetness, although it contribute to the Browning, caramelization and tenderize the cake.

Butter

  • Butter is primarily composed of fat that is the reason why it is high in calories and also contains fat soluble vitamins which Vitamin A,D,E, K. Butter is commonly used in cake making because it add moisture and tenderness to the cake, making it palatable. It also for flavour enhancement and texture modification.

Baking powder

  • Baking powder is one of the Vital ingredients that helps cake to rise making sure of it consistent texture. It also helps in releasing carbon dioxide gas and contribute to the fluffy and light texture of the cake.

Vanilla flavour

  • As the name implies, it add tantalising aroma, Sweet and creamy flavor to the cake. Imagine consuming a cake with flavour, it would be palatable. The flavour alone complement other ingredients making our cake appealing.
