New and better cake baking

The chocolate cake with vanilla essence as it came out of the oven.

The chocolate cake with cream and cashew nut and cherry topping.
The super soft pineapple vanilla flavoured cake

The super soft pineapple vanilla flavoured cake with dark chocolate topping with strawberry cream and cashew and cherry.


Now these two cakes are super soft and extremely tasty. I would reckon they are the most tasty and soft cake that I had made all my life. (I made 10 cakes in all) Now there are a few changes in the proportion of materials. They are as follows - 
 1. Flour -2 cups
 2. sugar-2 cups (sugar more than flour, in weight not volume)
 3. butter- 1 cup (you can also use extra virgin olive oil instead of butter, its healthier. But use less     than a cup if using olive oil))
 4. salt- 1 teaspoon.
 5. vanilla essence - 2 teaspoon.
 6. egg-4 (try for duck egg) and give more yolk than egg whites, it makes cake more velvety. (use more egg than butter)
 7. cocoa powder - half cup (mix it with hot water)
 8. coffee - 4 teaspoon (mix it with the hot water.
 9. water - 1 cup (the hot water of the cocoa n coffee mix is sufficient)
 10. baking powder - 2 teaspoon.

For the cream use Amul cream and mix it with sugar and cornstarch and mix with blender.
Also mix the egg first with the blender for 25 mins.
You can also use nuts and raisins 2 cups each with the mixture.
bake for 30-35 mins.
apply butter to the baking bowl and spray flour to it, it gives a golden colour to the cake circumference and makes it easier to come out.

Lockheed Martin ups the game by appointing Indian CEO

-
Lockheed Martin is in the process of wooing the Indian government to buy the F16 Block 70 jets for the IAF. India has a similar offer from Swedish company SAAB. Their 4++ generation fighter Gripen E has better radar. But Lockheed has appointed Mr Laal, who headed General Atomics, and supplied the guardian drones to India. The IAF is also buying GE engines for LCA Tejas. There are also talks of offering F35 stealth fighter to India, along with F16. They would also shift the production line from Texas to India. All this would make sense if there is critical technology transfer.

No Country for Gentleman's Cricket..or no Gentleman in a country

-
Cricket as we know it today has reached a stage in its evolution taking a trajectory particularly in the last two decade that most of the followers of the sport could not foresee. It must also be acknowledged as an universal truth that any activity controlled or executed by humans has to reflect the vagaries and social milieu of the human society as a whole. The sport of Cricket is no different to that universal truth. In the world order Socialism and communism has given way to Capitalism or consumerism. Manufacturing based Economy has given way to knowledge economy. Films and Television serials the world over bears ample testimony to that fact. Films like “Good Bye Lenin”, “Wall E” “Inside Job” are examples of it. In India the criminalisation of the post-Industrial economy and worshiping criminals as heroes is reflected in films like the Doom series, Don series etc. The laid back atmosphere of cricket has also given way to maddeningly dynamic t20. The smooth cover drives have given ...

The Day of the Government Exam…

-
Corporate MNC cherry pick candidates and put them in a tournament where being above average would not take you to the next level; you have to be exemplary. And if you learn early (which most people do) that you can never make it to the top you quit the tournament or keep swarming in the bottomless pit. But  if  you can somehow reach the top 5% of the Pyramid you receive 70% of the revenue. This business model is followed by everyone who runs an organisation from the Tata's to Taliban and from McDonalds to Maoists. It's human nature to take part in a tournament where the incentives are visible and high. The lifestyle of the top 5% not only attracts swarming freshers (who constitute 95% of the organization)  but it also keeps their moral high with dreams of someday making it to the top regardless of the modest incentive they  receive.  So you would agree with me why there is a trend for government service where you can supposedly make good money while still ...
