Cupcake "Beehive"

[Kara]

Kara, IRA! What a good deal you brought to the forum with these forms !!

[Mikhaska]

Mikhaska, IRA! All your cupcakes are just exemplary, in any form!
And so far I have only brought "Stolichny" to the level
How much I still have!

All your cupcakes are just exemplary, in any form!

Oh, Olenka! Here it is - my sore corn! Of all the baked goods, I only get the best cakes and rolls ... Well, and one - a single bird cherry cake ... I don't even try to bake in the oven anymore! Unless, in the cartoon ...
If, for once and for all, a successful biscuit is baked, then I am stupefied with happiness more than the biscuit itself does!

Irish, why so? Does the oven fail?

I have a wonderful oven, Irinka! .. As a young man it didn't work out for me with biscuits, so ...

And you try Chiffon... In any case, it turns out, at least what you do with it. When I need it right here 10000% without misfires (otherwise kirdyk) or urgently in one night, I bake it and bake it.

Thank you, Irishka! It will be necessary, somehow, to try, since you think so!

[Mikhaska]

Mikhaska, I made biscuits in roses - very tasty 👍

Girls, hello everyone!
Tell me using this form, which recipe is easier to take? Will a regular biscuit work? But then I can't imagine how many eggs to make for such a whopper?

The other day my parents came, baked a hive according to the recipe, set it exactly 160 degrees. And since I have a playful child, in order not to run and look, I simply set the shutdown timer for 65 minutes. The cupcake is burnt)) but the middle is delicious. Now I want a simpler recipe, too much oil for me, it turns out a little expensive, but I often bake. Maybe charlotte will work out? Please tell me girls, I don't want this form to stand idle

Any baking recipe you like will work with this baking dish This is just a baking dish Just to bake in it you need to reduce the temperature and be sure to pre-grease

Thank you, but I somehow did not think, I decided for some reason that special recipes are needed))

Girls, what else, besides the glaze indicated in the recipe, can you glue the two halves of the hive together?

Elena, can be glued with any cream, chocolate, fondant, jam.

Irina, tell me. I don’t have such a form yet (I didn’t want to buy them until I saw your hive! Now I really want this particular form).
Can I bake a cupcake in any other silicone mold? Has someone already tried it? There is no need to change the proportions.

[Kara]

Kara, Thank you. Let's think this cream is a little fat for us, we want it easier 😉 And for some reason the cream turned out to be lumps

[Rezlina]

Rezlinawhat a handsome man! And you will not tell me how tall it is in centimeters and in circumference. I just can't figure out which shape to fit the dough into.

[Bast1nda]

Bast1nda, Natalia, I baked this cupcake in silicone. The shape was large and I did not change the proportions. It was baked well and was just as tanned.

Irina, tell me. I do not have such a form yet (I didn’t want to buy them until I saw your hive! Now I really want this particular form).
Can I bake a cupcake in any other silicone mold? Has someone already tried it? There is no need to change the proportions.

* Of course, this cake can be baked in any other form, designed for a dough volume of 2 liters, well, with a baking temperature correction, I think, 180 degrees for about 40 minutes in silicone.

It bakes a little more in silicone. About an hour, but it's easy to check it with a splinter. I baked in Electrolux at 180 degrees for 1 hour 10 minutes.

[Bast1nda]

Bast1nda, I'm at the dacha now, there is no uniform nearby. On the first page it was written how many cups it could hold.Maybe this will help you

Girls, does he generally rise a lot in uniform?

It bakes a little more in silicone. About an hour, but it's easy to check with a splinter. I baked in Electrolux at 180 degrees for 1 hour 10 minutes.

About how, but on the first pages, on the contrary, they advise to reduce the time and significantly. But I realized it depends again on the oven and the form. Check with a match or I'll check with a Tescom spoke. That is, in principle, an ordinary cupcake.

It does not rise much, 20 percent of the test volume. It worked out for me.
Honestly, now I would not take this form - it is really huge, because of its beauty I want to bake in it more often, but with a family of three we eat the hive for a week, other recipes must be greatly increased in proportions

[Bast1nda]

Bast1nda, maybe it also depends on the thickness of the form? I have a form of the very first silicone, with plump walls. It bakes longer in it. I have one big one. It rose evenly, but there was no "mountain" in the middle.

Any dough in Nordic molds takes longer to bake than in silicone.

[Irina]

Irina, I agree 100%. I have a Nordic form "Heart". I threw it into the far corner. While baking in it, you won't want any cupcake.

It is clear, that is, you can reduce the ingredients by half. That's what I wanted. Everything, I drown to knead, I will bake in silicone. Wish me culinary luck.

And in size in the first post, Irina wrote that it is in the shape of a beehive and comes out as large as a decent cake. And by the weight of the ingredients, you can see that this is a double norm for my forms.

Irina, and milk 180 grams is how much in ml? Or do you need to weigh it directly?

Natasha, it seems to me that 180 ml will be

[Kara]

Kara, thanks for the recipe. It's so yummy! I was doing half the rate. I should have been whole. I didn’t have time to cool it down. He smelled so much even in the oven that his son and husband flatly refused to wait until he cooled down and covered with glaze. They began to cut without glaze, I already covered 2/3 of the cupcake))))) pulled away, covered with glaze also barely had time to photograph. Moreover, none of them eat honey and did not recognize it in the cupcake))))) Very interesting and tasty cupcake!

I just took it out and turned it over

Covered the already cut cupcake))))

Kara, Irina, I am writing with a delay, because the * Beehive * cake was prepared on the day of receiving the form, well, what can I say, this is something amazing, it seems to me that I have not eaten a cake tastier yet, everything turned out beautifully and tasty everyone appreciated 5 points Once again, many thanks for the forms (I have long been desired) and for the recipe. Irina, and what recipe can be suitable for this form yet? And so that immediately fall?

Oh, girls, I'm so glad that you liked it! Enjoy baking.

Irisha, and I'm doubly happy for you Try again here THIS... I'm sure you'll like it!

[Kara]

Kara, Irochka, thanks for the recipe, I'll bake it right now, if it works out with the photo, I will certainly put it in Temka

Another huge thanks for the recipe! Happy holiday!

[Tanuhka]

Of course, mine is not as picturesque as that of Tanuhka ... Rather, beehive like beehive:

I also baked the third "Beehive" - ​​from 1 h. l. soda plus the same amount of baking powder (outwardly there is no difference with the second one) The taste - I do not know - was presented.
Kara, thanks for the recipe in any case - if it weren't for him, I probably would never have bought this form, and I'm sorry to question

Tanyusha, a very beautiful "hive" turned out.

Inna, and you have a beautiful Easter cake

I indicated in my recipe

The recipe is taken from the official nordicware website with my small adjustments.

The first time I baked it strictly according to the recipe, and 412 grams of flour (to be absolutely precise, 2 and 3/4 cups of flour is 412 grams in conversion) seemed to me a lot, since the dough turned out to be very tight. Of course the moisture of the flour matters, I use MacFoo.240 grams of sugar is too much for my family, we don't like cloying. Well and butter, 1 cup or 8 ounces, or half a pint is 240 grams

As for baking soda and baking powder After all, baking powder is a mixture of soda, flour and citric acid, so I don't see much difference ...

But I'm glad that you have found the optimal ratio of ingredients for yourself.

[Kara]

Kara, and I have "Makfa" (for cakes-cupcakes with other flour I don't even experiment), but it turned out thinner and less dough in volume than seen in the photo. And I used this table for conversion 🔗, based on the volume of an American cup 240ml.
