Blueberries
- Fresh blueberries bleeds less than frozen ones. If using frozen blueberries, rinse them in cold water, pat dry right before using.
Why does the fruit in cake go to the bottom?
- To prevent fruits to sink to the bottom of the cake, coat fruits in flour before folding into the batter. Once added to the cake mixture the flour coating will thicken the batter immediately surrounding the fruit and help suspend the fruit. Fill up prepared pan and bake.
