The reverse creaming method is the process of coating your dry ingredients with butter before you add the liquids. Very important in butter cakes to keep your cakes from drying out. When a cake is cold, the butter in the cake get’s hard and can make the cake taste dry. Cakes should always be consumed at room temperature for the best results.
