The Baking Guild

[midnight13 she/her]

Has anyone else gotten bored over quarantine and started..binge baking? I have. I don’t know about anyone else. If you have... what have you baked? Here is a picture of my latest creation!

a crepe cake is not baked.

What’s the best thing you’ve made recently?

[Aeternum]

My baking skills were either non-existent or stolen, unfortunately. 

[Condensation she/her]

I've made lots of things, but I can't post any pictures.

I made gingerbread today. My mum's been trying to bully me into making it for days because she likes my gingerbread, and I finally made it. But I won't be able to eat much of it because I'm going back home tomorrow, and I can't take a whole batch of gingerbread with me. 

I also got new gingerbread cutters today. I got a really cute bunny and a wombat. I can't wait to eat wombat shaped gingerbread . I also borrowed my grandma's panda, pig, cat and dog cookie cutters. Now I have a whole farm of gingerbread animals, they make me so happy XD. 

Except I suck a decorating so I want to put the bunnies in tuxedoes, but that sound too difficult for my skill level. I might just stick to smiley faces like you did @midnight13 .

I'd like to start baking again... but I haven't had time.

I got an awesome new recipe for mallowmelt cookies.

[Lecky Twig she/her]

Ooo that sounds delicious. I think I'm going to make ownies today if I have all the ingredients in the pantry, my cousin gave me a good recipe that I've been itching to try out. Except I'm too lazy to bake so I may never get around to it.

They're marshmallow, butterscotch, and chocolate cookies. Mmm.

[Lecky Twig she/her]

yum yum. I'm really bad at making cookies, I can never get them to bake properly for some reason. Maybe the cookie god's have a grudge against me.

That's sad! Cookies are my favourite thing to bake.

[Lecky Twig she/her]

Yep. I loooove cookies, except they always either burn or never set properly when they cool. I buy cookies more often than is healthy.

That's so sad! I like to bake cookies. Maybe it's something about the way you bake them.

[Lecky Twig she/her]

TBH I gave up after my third batch failed, then I started making gingerbread (which is kind of a cookie, but not really). I can make good gingerbread.

Yeah, usually I bake with Nutlex insread of butter because I have dairy intolerant family members, but I'm determined to make cookies with proper butter and I think it's messing with me a little because butter cooks at a slightly different temperature. 

I'll give cookies abother shot someday soon XD.

Gingerbread is the greatest. Although I do really like gingersnaps.

Good! Let me know if it works!

I like ginger snaps too! (I like most food hehe). I prefer gingerbread because it's softer.

Gingerbread... softer than gingersnaps?

I don't know what world you live in where that's the truth.

Yay! I prefer gingerbread as well. I tried to make it on Christmas...let’s just say I was a little heavy handed with the molasses and it didn’t turn out that well.

Hmm... shame. Gingerbread on Christmas tastes especially good.

I like baking but I cant bake much. Just pie and cakes and crepes. I've never tried gingerbread.

mmmm yummy. Do crepes technically count as baking? 

[Listener she/her]

Do pancakes count? Because pancakes are very similar to crepes. If it isnt baking, is it cooking? That doesnt seem to fit.
