Bored Panda got in touch with Josephine Casey from Sweetjosiebakes, an expert baker, and she was kind enough to answer some questions. First, for all the amateur bakers out there, we wanted to hear what are the most common mistakes inexperienced bakers make?

“Not using a scale while baking and relying solely on cups for measurements which is common in the US. However, when it comes to baking, particularly for beginners, precise measurements are essential. For instance, using cups for flour may seem convenient, but it can lead to inconsistencies.”

“If you were to scoop flour four times using a 1-cup measurement and then weigh it, you'd likely find that each scoop weighs a different amount. These discrepancies can result in improperly baked goods,” she shared.

So for those who might be inspired to get into baking before the end of the season, we asked Josephine to share some tips for beginners. “It's important not to feel discouraged after a failed baking attempt. Mistakes are common, especially when you're new to baking, as it's a precise science.”

“Factors such as incorrect measurements, temperatures, or even the quality of the recipe can contribute to less than ideal results. Remember, practice truly does lead to improvement, even though it might sound cliché. So keep at it, and you'll see progress over time,” she shared with Bored Panda.

We also asked her to share her own baking fails. “Mistakes happen to everyone, regardless of experience. Just two weeks ago, I made a very silly mistake while building a large-scale cake intended to be tall and heavy. I forgot to add support to the cake, and it ended up crumbling down.”

“This kind of mishap is quite common when learning to bake, and even experienced bakers can encounter similar fails. Once again the important thing is to learn from the failure and continue on.” So if you want to see more of her work, check out her website or go and visit her Instagram account.

#33 Spooky Wedding Cookies To Surprise My Friends

My friends love spooky things, and they're getting married this weekend, so I made them miniature sugar cookies with a few unconventional wedding guests to celebrate.

I used a soft bristle brush to try to create movement in the little ghost's shrouds. The flowers, ties, and bouquets were done using a toothpick and a sugar scriber. And the color palette will match the bride and groom's florals.

I call these my little "button" cookies, though they're about the size of a half dollar.
