Ensure All Ingredients Are at Room Temperature: This allows them to blend seamlessly, resulting in a smooth and consistent batter.
Sift the Dry Ingredients: This aerates them, ensuring an even distribution and preventing lumps in your batter.
Cream the Butter and Sugar Together Until Light and Fluffy: This incorporates air into the mixture, creating a lighter and airier cake.
Add the Eggs One at a Time: This prevents the batter from curdling and ensures a smooth and even mixture.
Do Not Overmix the Batter: Overmixing can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the Cake at the Correct Temperature and Time: Follow the recipe's instructions precisely to ensure the cake bakes evenly and doesn't overcook or undercook.
Let the Cake Cool Completely Before Frosting It: This prevents the frosting from melting and running off the cake.
