Do you take order for your cake? If yes how much it is?
Hi Anonymous,
May I know how to address you?
Yes, I do take order occasionally as I'm too busy with other chores. And I only take order from my friends and relatives.
is it possible not to ADD IN HORLICKS?? THANKSSS
Hi Anonymous,
You can replace it with milo.
Can i don't use baking soda. add only the baking powder
Hi Latha,
Sure, you can try using only baking powder.
Hey! i want to try these. ANd i wanted to know if i can add anything else. Like chocolate chips or nuts? WHat kind of nuts are preffered?
Hi Laura,
You can add any nuts, chocolate rice is preferred. You can add chocolate chips, if you don't mind sticky melted chocolate chips which caused extra moisture in your cake.
hello,
Can I decorate this cake with fondant?
Hi Best Handmixer,
Sorry for the late reply. Sure you can cover this cake with fondant.
What is the function of Horlicks/Milo in this recipe? Can it be replaced with more cocoa?
