Posted March 10, 2010 – 7:11 am in: Cake Recipes
All of us often wonder how the most common commodity used by us everday – soap is manufactured. It was in the 19th century that commercial production of soap began with the discovery of basic chemicals that could be used in bulk to mass produce cakes of soap.
The whole concept of making soap is quite simple. All it takes is a mixture of caustic soda and any oil like coconut oil to produce a cake of soap. The actual process of course needs to be controlled and monitored to produce soap that is usable.
The basic concept in soap making is that caustic soda (sodium hydroxide, called “lye”) reacts with both oils and fats to make soap. This is called saponification.
There are three basic methods of making soap. When made at home, these cakes are rich in glycerin. Industrial processes remove the excess glycerin.
Cold Process Soap
This is the grandmother’s soap recipe. The art of soap making involves using the right proportion of basic ingredients – lye (sodium hydroxide) and water with fatty acids. Approximate time for this is 6 weeks.
Cold process soap is normally hard and long lasting.
Melt and Pour Soap
The easiest and safest way to make soap at home is to buy melt and pour kits. As the name suggests, the various ingredients need to be melted and mixed in the prescribed proportions. Various colors, fragrances and other ingredients can be added as well.
Hot Process Soap Making
This is as simple as mixing all the ingredients and placing them in a container and then heated up to evaporate water and leave the soap solution behind. This cools off to become soap.

How Important are Cake Pans for an Exquisite and Delicious Dessert?
Posted March 10, 2010 – 7:11 am in: Cake Quotes
Anyone who takes to spend a little time in the kitchen knows how important cake pans are for an exquisite and delicious dessert; we wouldn’t be in the wrong to even say that the choice of cake pans can actually save or ruin a cake. Yet, culinary practice shows that every âchefâ has his or her preference for a certain pan, and as long as that one fulfills all the requirements, one couldn’t be happier about it. Presently, people are even giving a great deal of thought to their wedding cake pans, even if they turn to the services of a wedding planner. Bought from the retail shops or ordered online, cake pans should be comfortable to use.
Always buy those cake pans that provide the widest variety of usage, since you should be able to prepare some of the most delicious recipes. The sizes of the cake pans are often crucially important, and when purchasing such items you need to take into consideration the number of family members too. How many people will you be cooking for? The same thing is valid if you plan to offer a set of cake pans as a wedding gift; relatives are usually the ones to offer such items as presents, and they clearly point out to the extent of the family as such.
Cake pans come in a variety of shapes since they are used by both amateurs and professionals to create some of the most rewarding and fanciful desserts. From the very common round, oval, square and rectangular traditional cake pans to heart-shaped ones that make great cakes for Valentine’s Day for instance, there are dozens of models to choose from. One should know from the very beginning that special cake pans are not for the usage of professionals only, and that any home cook can play all sorts of tricks with the help of the right pan.
Not all cake pans can be used for baking, some of them are often recommended for fresh cold cooking. This is usually the case with certain kinds of dessert that depend on ice cream and whipped cream varieties, and instead of baking, they rely on cooling. In case you simply want to buy some new set of cake pans for your kitchen, it would be a good idea to go for the aluminum-made and stainless steel ones since they are easy to clean and highly reliable for baking. After all cooking is definitely one great experience to be enjoyed!
