Thinking of baking a bunch of desserts for my housemates and possible customers. Any tips to make it as good as possible? I don’t bake very much and I’d love some advice.

Bust a fat nut on them I bet the will love it

First off, what kind of desserts were you thinking of baking? Applicable tips and tricks vary greatly from type to type.

Well, first, make sure that you get a list of any potential allergies down ahead of time.

Second? Nutmeg. A little bit of nutmeg can send desserts to god-tier. Not too much, mind you; just a dash. It also depends on what kind of dessert you want to make. Cupcakes? Cheese cake? Meringues? Pies?

There's a lot of variety when it comes to desserts, after all.

Were an incredible recipe my grandmother used to make, before she sadly perished in a freak vegetable processing accident. She called it "black loaf" but there's other names for it too I think.

Essentially what u want to do is get coarse flour and blend it with gunpowder and tonic water to make a dough. Throw some brown sugar and a bit of cinnamon in there, then bake that sucker until it's golden. Sprinkle more cinnamon, sugar and gunpowder on top.

Absolutely tremendous. Everyone will melt for it, I assure you.

I need a fat nut on my cake

Tarts maybe? Cheesecake is always a banger but you can find something other than strawberry like peanutbutter and chocolate. I made it last summer and everyone loved it

Recently starting baking myself a bit and since i rush or try to 'multitask' a bit I'd suppose the only thing i can add to this is take your time. Prep your items before hand or in decent order.

Can't tell you how many times i forgot to grease the pan, turn stove on first or skipped an ingredient and so on. Take your time and make sure you got/do everything properly

i read it as barking tips and thought I'd make myself useful for once

Brownies are easy to make by just following the instructions on the package. I recommend you only use 1 egg regardless of what the package says though for extra fudginess. The more eggs, the more cake-like it becomes.

You love a little glaze hmm ;)
