Butter Cake Recipe. Sprinkling?
Hi there,
Oh my God. I have done the lemon cake recipe on your site it was amazing. My mum was like It is the best cake that I have done since 18 years.
My question is. I would love to do the basic butter cake I didn't get this •{4 1/2 cups sugar, plus 1/2 cup for sprinkling}. Obviously I know the measurement and the sugar but don't know what sprinkling is? I googled it but I have different pic and different answer. So may I have what is it please. Thank you
Hi Zaynab,
Wow! Thanks for the nice comment on the lemon cake recipe. It's one of my faves too! I use it for my brides cakes often.
I apologize for not specifying the sprinkling part of the recipe. I have to fix that right away. After you put the batter into the pans, you sprinkle(or dust) the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar over the batter before you bake it. I hope that explains it enough.
Sprinkling means to "scatter or distribute loosely."
