Tips and tricks

  • When we use Flour for baking, we always sift it to make it fluffy, which my grandma always taught me.
  • When you have powdered sugar (this can happen when moisture gets into it), don’t worry, you can also sieve it or put it in a blender, and it will be fluffy as soon as you buy it.
  • You don’t have powdered sugar. You can ground regular sugar.
