A couple of months back, I decided to move the baking soda to
an airtight container![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tBhozcNpSn-p8tf3439l0JEqx07TDN46TuBSR9LldEIz6euAuNLnJm_PwE8wgk7slVF7U2TmJnCLbaPJxRjbs2NPH0nX3JvAsjeHMZw9r-Hziy2Ebwen-TqFWCMbRItPEDtMWv8z9VXg=s0-d)
similar to the one the
flour![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tdjxl92tyDJK2TYRog9GGrbisR8EpBTMF7VJpiLjVYOEXOL-fjqsdCgmktWoG3nx-mbkzeCU4dSyq8anpyJ29sy93u5QOJouqqhlM8uhspgyS7fO9Wyjrz0HH7n2fkrHaeKThtnm-g=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_t4M4yKh7QqIoZiooZJm7iq678zKnfQ_dfDq1mOHa450JMjKX2X6qiqWNN2ZMGh10x5xIRgX_2jNkJQbSExtC6kTB5PcSvcpTLUYvOjeUlaR_ysMQY_hWN-3ly804clPsSP3A6KAy6cjw=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.
