Birthday cake is an indispensable dessert when celebrating birthdays, and cream is one of the most important ingredients. However, with the wide variety of creams on the market, many people are confused: which cream is best for birthday cakes?
First, we need to understand the common types of cream. At present, there are two types of common creams on the market: non-dairy cream and animal cream. Non-dairy cream is a cream-like substance made of vegetable oil as the main raw material through hydrogenation, esterification and other processes. Animal butter, on the other hand, is extracted from cow's or goat's milk and has a rich milky aroma and taste.
So, which of these two creams is better for a birthday cake?
In terms of taste, animal butter is extracted from cow's or goat's milk, so it has a rich milky aroma and taste, and it tastes smoother and more delicate, and the taste is more real. Non-dairy cream, on the other hand, is made from vegetable oil, so it has a relatively light taste and does not have the rich milky flavor of animal butter.
From a health point of view, animal butter is extracted from natural cow's or goat's milk, so it has a higher nutritional value and contains more vitamins, calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients. Non-dairy cream, on the other hand, may contain unhealthy ingredients such as trans fatty acids because it has been processed by hydrogenation and other processes, and long-term consumption may cause certain effects on health.
Therefore, from the perspective of taste and health, it is recommended to choose animal cream as the main ingredient of the birthday cake. Of course, there are also some details to pay attention to when choosing a cream, such as choosing a cream that is fresh, odorless, and free of impurities, as well as choosing the right cream brand and type according to individual tastes and needs.
In addition, while choosing the cream, we also need to pay attention to other ingredients of the cake, such as the cake base, jam, decoration, etc. The texture and texture of the cake base will also affect the texture and quality of the whole cake, so it is recommended to choose a cake base with a delicate texture and moderate fluffiness. The choice of jams and decorations can be matched according to personal tastes and preferences, making the birthday cake more beautiful and enticing.
Finally, there are some skills and methods to pay attention to when making a birthday cake, such as whipping and spreading cream, decorating and cutting the cake, etc. The right tips and methods can make the cake more delicious and delicate, and make the birthday celebration more memorable and enjoyable.
To sum up, choosing animal cream as the main ingredient of the birthday cake is a wise choice, but at the same time, you need to pay attention to the selection and use of other ingredients and production skills. Only by comprehensively considering the taste, health, quality and other aspects can we make a delicious, delicate and beautiful birthday cake, making the birthday celebration more memorable and enjoyable.
