Question:

I am making a cake, can i line the pan with Aluminum Foil?

So I am making a birthday cake and the recipe says you should put parchment/wax paper down, but i dont have any!Could i line the pan with foil.???Would that effect the baking??

Answer:

NopeYou can line the pan outside with the alumfoil (for cheese cakes) but not inside Use parchment or wax paperTrace your pan, cut the paper into circles, place them on your greased pan and make sure to grease the paper circlesYou can find wax or parchment paper in the corner groceryIf you grease your pan well, you don't really need the liningFor cakes as big as 10 inches or more, its wise to use a linerThe cake will come out of the pan without any troubleGood luck.
A lot depends on two or three thingsHow much money do you have to spend? That will help determine which two or three you can useI like the AirFirst it is fast, it is very light and it is not all that expensiveThe only problem people have with it is the lack of a disk driveHowever I have two external drives, both are fantastic burners and both were cheapThey also came with their own Mac DriversI have external HD, to the tune of 2tb and external zip drive and external floppy driveIf it is external I got itOther than being hit with dumb stick when I went Mac buying a few months ago I would have been the owner of an AirI own a MacBook Pro (intel of course), it is fast, aluminum, heavier than I can carry now days so I loaned it to a friend who needed an intel MacBookShe is in 7th heaven, loves the speed, the ports, the ability to use VOIPShe is a videographer, does wonderful workShe loves the heavy duty computing power over the G5 she has been usingMacBook (classic), Own two of these, (no kids), one on permanent loan and the other is part of my home herd (4 in number)I have this years MacBookIt is ready for Lion, already has the interesting touchpad, it is running at 2.4ghz, hey when I started with mac and one went to 7mhz, so I am more than pleased with the speed and power, plus I get hours of use, usually 0730 plus hoursSo I am more than pleased except that it doesn't have firewireThere is a work around, so I am not all that bothered by itI think the Classic should handle anything college could toss outSome demand a specific OS type program, but Macs run both Mac and Windows natively, so I don't see that as a problemU just get boot camp, follow the instructions and get a partition and put Windows in the partitionHave fun at college
