A couple of months back, I decided to move the baking soda to
an airtight container![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vjvOBc1icUjP72K5oRSkT4CfoWfWtIcECk5QLSLtAggTVg1lL_rymPg5DBVYl3pZzAygCDyCoSqbaFmCxvu2lMyxz3ftxFthM6yi5vQWcuaMMIByeuMJSHgFLOUj6RtW9AUwRZNZD6Kw=s0-d)
similar to the one the
flour![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uANzJ0gxkzPL7G0-PdkP1xNqLlVNRkmLnRxXspsDtJJQnMpcCGNLC4Hw8y-cjc9WDVjyrGte-HnEKApIAvxaRgFpH0nYVSuf7_n1Fs7o3SJIf11qSiAXM2tPLyYoXllyzWLrL4OP0Y=s0-d)
was in. Today I decided to bake
this cake recipe, because it was simple and I hadn't baked anything in a while. The recipe called for flour and I grabbed one of those airtight containers. I added all the ingredients and poured the batter into the
cupcake pan![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_thXX1LbUHvhFFUUx1X59gb81t7iMwFt76u1FpWDrA2AZCiT7yas8dS2kffXhWg542v4yNmrguqf0JPRsiig-nPu68Qztm8xirTV8bLsvkT__rhsTnp8RZqm66DdvoQ5UfFeyBX0_MwFA=s0-d)
I tasted a bit of the batter and it tasted kind of bitter. I assumed it was nothing and popped it in the oven. Twenty minutes later my pan and oven look like this:
Poop. I added baking soda, not flour to the batter. And I get to clean it up. This is such a fail. Sigh. On the bright side, now I have to clean the oven, a task I've been putting off forever! xoxo Ife
P.S. What baking fails have you had? Tell me via
email or comment!
EDIT: Baking soda is a great cleaning agent, and now the stainless steel shows through my otherwise burnt(?) cupcake pan
When my sister and I were baking brownies, we decided to locate a suitable replacement for butter; we settled on motor oil. The long and short of the situation was that my sister took a bite into our freshly baked brownies and was rushed-almost immediately- to a hospitable. She has not been the same since, haha.
ReplyDeleteWow. That's horrible. I hope she gets better by some crazy miracle.
