    Omg 🤑 my husband loves it! I am probably the only person in the world baking a cake at 10 o'clock at night because I can't sleep but when I tell you THIS CAKE IS DELICIOUS AND MOIST 😛 I followed your instructions and it came out beautiful and I don't even bake! So thank you mansa! Please post more baking tips for the ones that are new to baking like me 🙂

    Well hello Mrs. Queen, I just want to thank you for all your tips and help that you have given me in the baking dept. I have been watching you for about 4 months and you have really open up my kitchen, I have tried making box cake's in the past following their directions only to have NO baking aroma filling the house up and once it's done it sit in the cake dish for almost a week with MAYBE one slice gone 😩. But now that I have you in the kitchen with me 😜 I'm just a regular lil ole baker now. I made your French vanilla but cake for my mother n law

    When I make this delicious lemon pound cake, right before it comes out of the oven, I mix a box of powered sugar & half a cup of lemon juice(maybe a little less), then while the cake is still in the pan, pour this mixture over the hot cake & let it SOAK into the cake. After the glaze has soaked in the cake, turn cake pan out on to a cake plate. Be ready to fall in love with this tangy, lemon cake.😳
