Baking's definition is safe in that it's for meats; fish; and poultry. The Cake Boss, Buddy Valastro is a chef using the golden mean and has a first name derivative of baking. Cakes are a breath easy food; never engage in sweat while making a cake. The Cake Boss is a TV Series about including relaxation in the task of baking; then cross relax off the check list your already finished. Its part the test answer about holding the name baking the food; but it gets easier than that. The name baking is for surf n turf; cakes have a lighter maker name

I was very impressed by the vanilla cake recipe--however, my decorator's buttercream tasted very much like lard..I was not impressed by it. I followed the recipe exactly as it said, but I found it didn't taste good.
