Which of these cake quotes is your favorite?

Professional bakers categorize cakes by their ingredients and mixing methods. If your recipe starts with “cream butter and sugar” then you are about to make a butter cake.

Pound cake, which is often made in a loaf or bundt pan, is a derivative of butter cake. It gets its name because its ingredients can be measured proportionately: a pound of butter, a pound of sugar, a pound of eggs, and a pound of flour.

If you have a recipe that calls for no baking soda or baking powder, but lots of whipped eggs or egg whites, then you are about to bake a sponge cake!

Genoise and biscuit cakes are French versions of a sponge cake. Then there is angel food cake, which you might recognize as the base of strawberry shortcake. It also has a distinct spongy texture, and no egg yolks! There are even flourless cakes, for those of you who might be trying to cut out gluten.

You could also find a recipe for a cake with a gluten-free type of flour. Just because gluten might be off the table, does not mean that cake has to be! Cake is so fabulous, you can also find a Keto recipe if you are trying to follow a lower-carb diet!
