Baking
Hello everybody I hope you are all well. Recently I have noticed the increase in home baking as people are staying at home because of the virus. Many people are keeping busy by trying new recipes and cooking/baking. I went to the supermarket and couldn’t find any flour or baking powder because a lot of people are buying items that are needed for baking. People are uploading pictures of what they have made on social media platforms such as Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok. A very popular trend on TikTok is making Dalgona coffee. There are many videos online demonstrating how to create the coffee.
Here is a simple recipe to make cupcakes 🙂
