Dear Nancy, what can make cake turn out very hard?. I baked a cake recently and it turned out very hard. The things i did different was that i whisked the eggs for so long, till it was very foamy (I was wondering if i could get the ice-cream taste that way)and secondly, i baked with a micro-wave oven. I came to the conclusion it was because i baked with a micro-wave oven. What did i do wrong?
