Elegant One-Pan Cakes
Elegant One-Pan Cakes is a sweet collection of single layered, fuss free cakes that are accessible to bakers of all levels. The book is inspired by Sonali’s journey and success as a baker when she immigrated to Australia and started baking with just one pan in her cupboard. Her signature one layered cakes contributed to the success of her blog Sugar et al.
The book will teach you how to build interesting combinations of flavours into your cakes and how to decorate with glazes, frostings, garnishes and more. All you need to know is how to pour ingredients into a bowl and mix — it’s so easy, anyone can do it!
So easy, anyone can do it!
In using one pan, by no means are you limiting yourself to one-dimensional baked cakes. There are cheesecakes, Bavarians, mousse cakes, ice cream cakes and a stunning charlotte recipe in the book.
Sate your chocolate cravings and try out a Chai Chocolate Cake with Rum Sauce, or eat fresh and fruity with a Strawberry Poppy Seed Cake. For a tasty afternoon treat, serve up a delicate Rosewater and Pomegranate Cake or an indulgent Mocha Flan. Looking for the perfect dessert table showstopper? How about a Blood Orange Cake with Ginger Syrup, a Mango Cake with a Basil Cream Cheese Swirl or even a Saffron Pistachio Tres Leches Cake?
