this is not a simple cake, ingredientwise.

Admittedly, there are simpler cakes, but if you’re already living in a woodframe or a program house you probably have most of these ingredients save maybe the cider vinegar or flour. If you live in a dorm, it might be more difficult.

What a great video. Nice pacing, good intructions (“save hearty flour for bread, why you need to butter pan, activating gluten = bad” etc) Baking requires precision….good long shots to close up of hands (which look natural and clean). Could slow down a little bit in speech (maybe a bit nervous?) Very put together demo – love the cake plate!
