Strategic Cake Reserve

Well the second cake did not fall, but it did fall out of the pan. I'm not sure if this was a function of not enough baking or the poppyseeds. But the cake survived its premature removal from the pan since it only dropped a few inches. But next time I shall be sure to give the pan an extra washing with soap and probably leave out the poppyseed as I think they're good, but not a huge positive. And I'll let it bake for nearly an hour rather than just 55 minutes.

This cake was rapped on the counter, did have the right amount of leavening, and only had an extra tablespoon of flour. The texture is finer and the cake's consistency seems overall better. I think that next time I shall get it exactly right. And it is not even that hard a cake to make.

It was tasty, and I like poppy seeds.

Thanks. But I do want to try it without the poppyseed.
