chocolate, coconut, lemon, lime. strawberry

I want to make a egg shaped cake for easter?

I would use a 8" square pan, and a 8" round pan, and then cut the round cake in two halves to fit at the top and bottom of the square cake - instant oval. ( | | )

Or you can see if you have an oval shaped Pyrex serving bowl, which could be used to bake the cake. You need to bake it longer, if you do this. Something like http://www.choiceful.com/choiceful-id-18...

Good luck!

Unique cake flavors for Easter?

Lemon cake would be good for spring, you could try a cheesecake or angel food cake, or a really unique cake would be a Hummingbird Cake:

Here's a recipe for a Hummingbird Cake-
Ingredients
2 cups mashed ripe bananas
1-1/2 cups canola oil
3 eggs
1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple, undrained
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts

PINEAPPLE FROSTING:
1/4 cup shortening
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
2 teaspoons half-and-half cream
Chopped walnuts, optional
Directions
In a large bowl, beat the bananas, oil, eggs, pineapple and vanilla until well blended. In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda and cinnamon; gradually beat into banana mixture until blended. Stir in walnuts.
Pour into three greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
For frosting, in a large bowl, beat the shortening, butter, lemon peel and salt until fluffy. Add confectioners' sugar alternately with pineapple juice. Beat in cream. Spread between layers and over top and sides of cake. Sprinkle with walnuts if desired. Yield: 12-14 servings.

How to store cake pops?

It's for Easter evening, I made my first cake pops and they're supposed to be chicks with pointy beaks and little feet made of icing. I should have waited until tomorrow to decorate them, but I was too excited. I don't want to put them in Ziploc bags because the beaks and feet will be squished. What can I do? Or can I just stick them in the fridge uncovered (they're being held up in blocks of styrofoam)? I don't know how to keep them fresh!

What does red velvet cake taste like?

Red velvet cake, when made correctly has an extremely complex flavor. That is what makes it so good. It is a moist vanilla cake with a hint of chocolate in it. Also, due to the addition of Buttermilk and acid it is a little tart and a little salty too. A cream cheese frosting Is classic to a red velvet cake and provides it another dimension of flavor - creaminess. All these flavors together make a red velvet cake the perfect heavenly dessert. The red food coloring is not present to provide any flavor but only added because of its name. You can also make blue velvet, pink velvet or any colour you want with the same basic recipe.The reason, the classic version is called red velvet is because good quality unprocessed Cocoa when comes in contact with the vinegar makes the batter red. Now a days, it's hard to get that good Cocoa, hence introducing the food colouring.

What does carrot cake taste like?

It tastes as yummy as a luscious cake can taste without chocolate, which is the staff of life.Carrot cake, when it’s super fresh, moist and soft, is the absolute best. Especially if it feels almost as if it’s going to melt in your mouth.Freshly made carrot cake explodes with flavor. It’s bursting with an array of flavorful nuts and delicious crunch.All that rich, moist and chewy goodness is topped off with soft gooey cream cheese frosting bursting with vanilla and maybe a hint of rum.Yes, which a cake is made with carrots, it can definitely turn some people off/For me, it’s similar tof banana or zucchini cake. Banana, zucchini and carrot cake all have a lot of texture offset by a soft, creamy topping.I do find carrot cake that is more than one day old to be less then yummy. To me, a lot of the greatness of carrot cake is when it’s super fresh, almost right out of the oven.I’m not sure I would really like carrot cake with chocolate frosting since I adore the soft cream cheese version, but I definitely would try it.Maybe a little chocolate sauce drizzled on top of the cream cheese frosting?When it comes to dessert, cake is my favorite thing. I like cake even better than ice cream, cookies, pie or candy.Just say the word cake and you can probably convince me to do most anything.Carrot cake can be super yummy when it’s freshly baked, properly frosted and maybe with a drizzle of chocolate sauce.Enjoy!

Some Ideas about Biology Cell Cake?!? 10 points to best answer!!!?

Nuclear Membrane- it's similar to the cell membrane, so perhaps icing again? Maybe a different color?
Nucleus- something large and circular... maybe a peppermint patty?
Cytoplasm- the cytoplasm is the liquid inside the cell, so just the icing that covers the entire cake could be considered this.
Golgi complex- Mike and Ike's
Vesicles- gum drops
Lysosome- they're pretty acidic, so I'd use something sour. Maybe you could cut Sour Patch Kids in half.
Centrioles- due to the ridged structure, I think regular licorice might work better here than for the mitochondria. For mitochondria, I'd say use a candy with something inside it to mimic the cristae, like peanut M&Ms. If you're really set on your licorice mitochondria, I think a mini-Reese's cup would work for the centriole.

That was a fun question to answer! Hope your cake turns out well!
