Cake. Cake is a confectionery product, usually round or rectangular, with fruit, cream, chocolate, etc. As a rule, it consists of several layers.
Initially, cakes were baked only in round shapes. This was associated with the sun and it was believed that baked goods in this shape were a symbol of fertility. This tradition has been preserved in the preparation of loaves and wedding cakes. Decorating cakes with candles also came to us from our ancestors. According to beliefs, it was believed that blowing out candles is a sacred act: along with the smoke from the candles, our desires are carried into the sky, which are sure to come true.
Today, the variety of cakes is amazing. They can consist of several tiers, be decorated with various figures or made in the form of cartoon characters, cars, dolls, etc.
Cakes can be made from sponge, puff, shortbread or waffle dough. Chocolate, cream, marmalade, fruit, jelly, meringue, etc. are used as decorations.
As a rule, cakes are baked to mark some special event. Depending on this, they are decorated accordingly.
All cakes are conventionally divided into three categories:
*real cakes. They are baked whole. These usually include pies, Easter cakes, Easter cakes;
* Italian type cakes. They are also called Neapolitan cakes. The basis of such cakes is a dough crust. There is a filling on it - fruit, cream, etc.;
* prefabricated cakes. This is the most common group of cakes. The dough cakes are baked separately and then laid out in layers, which are soaked and coated with cream.
Depending on the type of dough from which the cake is made, there are also several types:
* French. They are usually prepared from puff pastry or biscuit dough. The puff pastries are baked and then coated with cream and stacked on top of each other. The sponge cake is baked as one large cake, and then carefully cut lengthwise into several cake layers, which are necessarily soaked in some kind of syrup.
* Viennese. These cakes are based on yeast cakes, which are soaked in milk-chocolate or milk-coffee cream.
* waffle. Waffle cakes are most often soaked in boiled condensed milk. Such cakes are stored for a very long time and are easily transported, but the taste is very monotonous.
* sand. As a rule, they are coated with marmalade or fruit and berry filling. These cakes are the cheapest. They are not recommended for people who are prone to obesity.
* "liquid". This type of cake is common in the UK. The base is a biscuit. Method of preparation: place a sponge cake in a deep bowl. Pieces of biscuit of various shapes and sizes are placed on it in a chaotic manner, leaving large gaps between them. This whole mass is filled with cognac syrup, and then with liquid marmalade or butter-egg cream. You can add nuts, raisins, candied fruits. After this, the cake is placed in the cold for a day.
* curd. From the name it is clear that the main component in the dough is cottage cheese.
You can decorate cakes with cream, icing or various decorative elements made of chocolate, marmalade, etc.
A type of sweet pies. The first cakes are of Italian origin. In Italian, a pastry chef is a cake maker - tortaio. The famous French proverb “There is no arguing about tastes” in Italian sounds like “There is no arguing about cakes.”The word “torte” itself means curl in Italian and refers to the intricate, twisting cream decorations that are made on top of cakes.
Cakes are usually large (sometimes very large - up to a meter in diameter) confectionery products in the shape of a low cylinder or having an elliptical, rectangular, triangular and even pyramidal and conical shape.
A common external feature of cakes is their decoratively processed surface, for which different, dissimilar confectionery methods are used, with the common goal of creating an attractive product.
Since cakes are predominantly ceremonial, festive products dedicated to some events in the family or social life of people, their appearance, external surface, design, decorative qualities play a much greater role for people than their fundamental, essential properties. Therefore, the tendency to distinguish cakes not by the type of preparation and type of dough, but by names that distinguish them by a visible, external sign has penetrated into everyday life and trade and has become stronger: chocolate cake, fruit cake, cream cake, etc., and sometimes by names that have nothing to do with the confectionery essence and rather hide, but do not at all reflect the content of the cake: “Gift”, “Youth”, “Fairy Tale”, “Anniversary”, etc. - and are accepted only for advertising purposes.
Cooking: “From Europe with love. Baking from A to Z"
All cakes in confectionery terms can be divided into the following categories:
Real cakes or cakes baked whole. These are, in fact, sweet pies, most often half-open or closed, as well as solid products made from cake dough, which, after baking, are only slightly decoratively processed on top by applying glaze, applying citronates (see), etc. Their sweet part consists of jams, nuts, honey, and the dough in most cases is yeast. This type of cake is the best in quality, because it grew out of folk national sweet products of mainly Eastern peoples, prepared from natural high-quality food materials through long, careful processing of the dough and giving an overall tasty, healthy, nutritious product.
Italian style cakes, in which the dough part - the bottom, the outer shell (walls), and sometimes the top lid - is baked separately from the sweet - fruity, creamy - filling part and which are filled with any filling already cold. Italian cakes can undergo assembled form and undergo short-term secondary processing, the purpose of which is either to fuse the dissimilar materials placed in such a cake, or to glaze their surface, tinting it.
Prefabricated cakes. The most common and most diverse group of cakes, prepared from different materials, but using one method: they are assembled from different types of dough (the dough is baked separately as a semi-finished product, then layered and processed in various ways - impregnation, coating, pressing, applying decorative patterns, glaze and etc.).
According to the test used, this group is divided into the following types of cakes:
French. Made from biscuit or puff pastry. Biscuit dough can have different flavors (coffee, cocoa, almonds) and have different colors (egg yellow, light brown, dark chestnut). It is cut into narrow slices horizontally from large biscuits so that the cake has three (and not two, as we do) biscuit layers. The biscuit layers are soaked in syrups containing rum or cognac, and then placed on top of each other, alternately coated with marmalade, jam, and creams.
Puff pastry baked immediately into thin wide cake layers (or even thinner sheets). They are neither tranched nor soaked in syrups, like biscuits, but are directly layered on top of each other; The layers are coated with more liquid creams compared to biscuits. Puff pastry or waffles soften themselves gradually under the influence of the cream applied to them, so such cakes are left to stand for at least 6 hours after production so that complete impregnation occurs.
Viennese.In principle, they are mounted in the same way as the French ones, but for the base of the cakes they use yeast Viennese dough, and in biscuits, waffles and especially in puff pastry they use a spread of whipped cream. Instead of jam and cognac, milk-chocolate and milk-coffee combinations, combinations of whipped cream with egg creams are used mainly for spreading and impregnation.
Waffle cakes. The most monotonous, “boring” type of cake, consisting of wafers with coffee or chocolate dense and moisture-free coating, which is most often used with hastily prepared ganache mass (see). These cakes are more convenient to transport, they are stored for a long time, but they are rough and monotonous in taste.
Sand cakes. They are prepared from separately baked shortcrust pastry dies, which are then mounted into the cake. There is no impregnation of the dough base, but the coating is always fruit and berry, marmalade. These cakes are glazed on top with simple sugar icing and then decorated with cream or appliqués. This is the cheapest and most “dangerous” type of cake for overweight and overweight people.
"Liquid" cakes(typical for Great Britain). A layer of biscuit dough is placed on the bottom of a deep porcelain dish (or deep glass dish), then the entire dish is filled with pieces (sometimes scraps) of any shape and size from biscuits, nut cookies, babka, in complete disorder, so that between the fragments of the finished biscuit there is as many gaps as possible. When the dish is filled almost to the brim, first cognac syrup is poured into it, then liquid marmalade and, after adding a number of pieces of different cookies, butter-egg confectionery sweet cream is poured to the brim. Candied fruits, citronates, ground nuts can be placed on the surface of this cake, and the cake is placed in the refrigerator for a day. This type of cake does not need any decorations or any additional work - it is the simplest in terms of manufacturing technology and one of the most delicious. It reflected the British contempt for all sorts of pomp, for French show-off, and emphasized the importance of true content and taste: the cake on which no effort has been made to decorate turns out to be the most delicious, or at least one of the most delicious.
Curd cakes. Cakes baked entirely from curd and flour confectionery mass with the addition of lifting agents (soda, cream tartare, baking powder). These are delicious, pleasant, healthy cakes, the surface of which is covered with icing made from protein and sugar, and then decorated in the same way as regular dough cakes.
