A Silky Smooth Buttercream
This was something that took me quite a while to perfect, but trust me, once you’ve got your buttercream recipe down, its well worth it!
This is one of my nana’s tips from when she taught me how to bake when I was little, and it really
is the simplest one to follow! In order to stop your cakes from sticking in the tin, all you need to do
is take a little bit of time in preparing your tin.
Always grease AND line your tin
…it’s that simple! If you’re making a sponge for example, make sure to grease the tin and line with pre-cut baking
paper on the bottom and up the sides- the neater the better!
If you’re making a brownie or something similar, you can get away with greasing the tin, ripping off
a piece of oversized parchment and lining the tin. This way you’ve got something to grab on to, to
lift the cake out of the tin once it’s done.

One of the most common things that I get asked as a baker, is how I make my cakes rise so much without sinking.
