The Messy Baker

Baking is one of those things that seems like more of a science, whereas the other branches of cooking can be done more by intuition and are more forgiving with measurements. I do not have a problem with following exact measurements; my biggest thing with baking is that no matter what I do, I end up making a mess. All the baking videos will have you believe that you can somehow measure and sieve flour without spilling it on the counter or whisk up batter without as much as a drop falling outside the bowl.

Ahem! Not me! Even after countless attempts! Even after trying the "mise en place" technique.

But that doesn't stop me from baking and even venturing into decorating cakes. The process can be messy, but the result is still sweet :-)
