Honeywell Flour is a good flour for cakes. The shelf life of the red velvet and chocolate cakes is about 3-4 days. Beyond that they should be refrigerated or frozen. The shelf life of the fruit cakes is at least 10-12 days minimum if it has been well treated with rum or brandy after baking as highlighted in the Instructor’s notes. Thereafter, the treatment can be repeated after 12 days or the cake refrigerated or frozen
Gd afternoon ma
Can honeywell flour be used for all cakes or only this particular chocolate cake?
Secondly is it necessary to still put a pan of water in the oven while baking this chocolate cake
Honeywell flour can be used for all cakes as it is lighter than bread flour and is good for cake baking. However for white cakes it should be used to make cake flour.
It is not necessary to put a pan of water in the oven for this cake or the red velvet cake as they are already very moist cakes. They will get too moist. Water in the oven is recommended for all fruit cakes and white cakes.
Unfortunately I just bought a bag of golden penny flour, can I still go ahead and use this for my practicals. So if am buying the next bag will switch to Honeywell
Since you’ve already bought it then I guess you’ve got to use it. But mind you, Golden Penny flour is Bread flour which is heavier than Honeywell flour but it is excellent for bread and makes cakes heavier and not as soft as they should be.

1)A mixer is not recommended for this recipe or you may end up with a dense and hard cake.
2)If you must use cup measurement equivalents, pls ensure that you follow my video directions on measuring dry ingredients with cups.And yes they must all be levelled.
Eggs are not essential for this recipe yet you get an excellent result which tastes better than recipes with eggs. My goal is to teach you a more cost effective way to run your cake business while getting the best results.
Do not dissolve the coffee in water. Follow the instructions as shown in the video.

Good morning Ma,
Please use the all measurement be leveled. Assuming I am using cups equivalent for the flour and sugar.
Also can one use a hand mixer or it should be with a wooden ladle and hand.
1)A mixer is not recommended for this recipe or you may end up with a dense and hard cake.
2)If you must use cup measurement equivalents, pls ensure that you follow my video directions on measuring dry ingredients with cups.And yes they must all be levelled.
