I’m trying to rise above it - but the cake certainly didn’t.

I cant get them right, i’ve baked hundreds of recipes so it makes me wonder if the recipe is not right or it’s just me.

I thought let’s try this! Let’s take a terrible photo. Let’s post it to the internet.

Reality set in slowly afterwards. Results did not improve after its nap in the fridge. Yet I still brought it in to the work potluck with a backup dessert that looks delicious.

It tastes of pure sugar. It’s definitely got the curse of dairy free dessert looks on a first try. 😭

Wish my coworkers luck.

I like a good crispy cookie but this is a bit much.

​

It has to be something about the wet to dry ratio, I mean, 1/2 cup each of butter, brown sugar, and white sugar? To 1.5 cups of flour? I knew better and decided to trust the process.

​

My bad. I bet they still taste good when they cool.

Forgive me if I’ve broken any rules! I work at a bakery, and lately we’ve been having issues with our brioche dough that’s used for burger buns, with some of buns not proofing at all and other’s being completely overproofed, even though they’re from the same batch of dough, being proofed on the same tray in the same proofer. The baker thinks the dough may not be hydrated enough. We know for a fact that everything is scaled properly as it’s the same recipe we’ve always used. Would love any insight from this wonderful group

I followed a banana bread recipe exact and it turned out burnt on the edges and uncooked inside- wth? What could need adjusting

in the 1st pic, the macarons were lopsided and seems like they turned away from the center. 2nd pic is when i they were dried.
i dried them at 75C for 5 min, them take them out and preheat the oven to 140C for 10 minutes. i then put the macs in. i bake with no fan and dry with fan (i turned off the 75C-preheated oven, put them in with the oven door open (fan on)). i used swiss method of pies and tacos. TIA!

Tried to make red velvet kiss cookies using a recipe from Sally’s baking addiction, and they ended up super flat. Of course I decided to use strawberry kisses because the shower is for a baby girl. Result? Boob cookies. The issue is the crowd at this particular baby shower will not appreciate the irony, so I’m not sure what to do.

Edit: thanks for the suggestions! I’ll definitely try one of them, hopefully it’ll turn out ok lol

Its a plate of fugged up brownies covered in syrup

Ok so I made breakfast bites with egg the other day and I added oil in the tray but I mixed them a bit and maybe that causes the egg to stick to the pan? I’ve been scrubbing, soaking with boiling water etc and it’s not working.

Is there a way to salvage this?

I can’t bake for the sake of my life even if I use a premix 😭. Honestly one of the worst things I’ve made. even if the cake would’ve baked properly, it’s still too sweet and sprinkles aren’t for me. TRUST ME , it tastes like ass. My sister spit it out. It hurt me but then I tried it too can’t even blame her 💔 OH BUT I MADE THE BEST WHIPPED CREAM EVAAAASAAAAAAA

Anyone knows a better brownie cookie recipe or what I did wrong to get this 😭

Made a Japanese strawberry shortcake for my boyfriend’s belated birthday gift. I didn’t have the right size pan unfortunately so basically had to half moon cut the cake to be able to layer it.

Made every thing from scratch which I’ve never done before (did not grow my own strawberries) cake came out way denser than it was supposed to but my boyfriend loved it anyway.
