my 14 date cake turned out terrible!

[Guest guest]

Hi folks,

Let me preface this by saying that a baker I am not. My fourteen date cake

turned out terrible. The middle did not look like a cake, There was some clear

jelly like stuff in the middle (Was this the folded eggs whites?). When I folded

the eggs whites in it did not seem to mix well. Can I just stir it or should I

fold it in for a longer period of time. Also, how dark is the cake supposed to

be! It felt firm to the touch, but the middle did not have a cake like

consistency! It tastes great though! Please help.

On a side note, my son has been on the diet for two days. He has always had

trouble brushing his teeth (ei getting each side of his mouth). On day one he

could remember each part that he needed to brush. He also has not been hungry

all day. He used to want a snack through out the day. He has also feels warmer.

He used feel on the cold side all the time. I suspect he has an auditory

processing disorder, it is too young for a diagnosis. I will keep everyone

posted!

Help me make a better date cake!

Thanks in advance

The cake should be very dark and no whites or jelly. Were the egg whites stiff

when you

gemntly folded them in and turned the spatula enough times to completely

assimilate

them? Did you bake it ,long enough? It is not appropriate for someone who has

only been

on the diet for two days.
