This article is for you if you have ever stood in your kitchen wondering how people bake those flawless, fluffy cakes without making their kitchens a complete mess. I didn't have an expensive mixer or even a decent oven when I first started baking. Nevertheless, I discovered that you don't need pricey equipment to make a tasty cake after some practice (and a few burned cakes!). All you need are a few basic ingredients and easy steps to get started! Thus, these ten simple cake recipes are ideal for anyone with a sweet tooth, whether they are a homemaker experimenting with new recipes or a student living in a dorm. Indeed, no sophisticated equipment is required.

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
Instructions:

Blend sugar and curd until smooth. Add the powder and baking soda. Give it a few minutes to get foamy. Gently fold in flour after adding oil and vanilla. Transfer to a greased cake pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 180°C in a preheated oven.
