I appreciate how you took the time to model out exactly how to weigh eggs. I've been wondering how (shell on or off?). I'm a cup-measuring American, but I've enjoyed upping my baking game and bought some scales. They really do make a difference. And may I say, you all have some of the best desserts... things most Americans have never heard of or tried (bakewell tarts, macarons, etc). I've had baking fever over here! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Hi, everything ive read and been told is that eggs should be weighed in shells and that all other ingredients should match that eggs in shells weight, gou say out of shells, not sure what to do now
Hi Lizzie I make Victoria sponge all the time like you Thankyou for sharing would you use this for wedding cakes too. Thankyou Chrissy loving your videos
Hi i don't works in weight of cake but size of tin, so i know around 300grams of eggs with all the other ingredients weighing the same will give a 6' cake with 3 deep layers. sorry i don't work in the same measurements as you.
Hi I’m so sorry I haven’t seen your question sooner, This video on a Victoria sponge is a 6” I would scale up by 2 eggs for a 7” and up again each time you go up a size. Hope that makes Sense xx
Thank you so much, I have never thought about weighing the eggs, but it makes perfect sense. I look forward to following you.
Thank you x
