25 Savvy Baking Hacks Every Baker Should Know

Whether you’re just getting into baking or have been doing it for years, these are baking hacks that will elevate your baking game to Christina Tosi status! #masterbaker

1. Moist Cookies

Keep your cookies moist by storing them with an apple wedge. The cookies will absorb the apple’s moisture, thus staying softer for a longer period of time!

2. Non-Stick Cakes

Do you find that your cakes continuously stick to your pan? And isn’t it nearly impossible to get them out?! Ensure non-stick cakes with a simple mixture of shortening, oil and flour. Find the recipe here!

3. Marbled Frosting Look

Create a marbled frosting look by placing two pastry bags in one. See how they did it here!

4. Create Color Frosting With Jell-O

Don’t have food coloring? Color your frosting with Jell-O! Get the recipe here.
