Welcome, I'm Adriana! I've built an inclusive community for learning about the intersection of baking and science. Let's get you on a path to becoming the best baker you can be!

A little bit about me: I've been a home baker for several years, and I'm also a scientist (MS in Microbiology/Immunology; PhD in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology).

I approach recipe development through a scientific lens. I love researching the interplay of all the macromolecules (proteins, starches, sugars, fats). Don't worry, though, you don't need any special background or experience to bake with me. I break it all down for us.

In addition to my videos, I've built the Cakeculator, a free custom cake recipe app available on my website. As a home baker, you can choose the cake and frosting flavors to build a cake you'd want to make.

You can go to www.sugarologie.com to check it out.

Welcome to my channel and Happy Baking 🍓

Hi Bakers!
I've been aiming to get a nice, long video out every couple of weeks, but my current experiments are tripping me up a bit. (Here are some screenshots of current experiments!)

Cookie and I are also enjoying a bit of time with my family this week for Thanksgiving. Hopefully, I can get one more video out than normal in December, but we'll see...

In the meantime, I've also been releasing my recipe development newsletter biweekly, and the next version is still scheduled for next week.

I hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season so far, and I'm grateful you're here with me!

☺️ Adriana

🌟 And as the year ends, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for enabling me to do what I love. Would you like to suggest a video from me? A particular topic? A type of dessert? In-depth videos usually take me up to a month to produce, so I can't make any promises, but I try to do an easier style baker's choice video if there's enough interest (and time). Let me know in the comments 💕

I'm sorry this took so long 😖, but here is my brownie video's crackly-top Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe that a few of you requested. www.sugarologie.com/recipes/crispy-chewy-chocolate…

The sugar-to-water ratio is ideal for creating that crackly sugar sheet on top of each cookie, but it also gives it a unique texture: it's *very* chewy with crispy edges. This is due not just to the low water and high dissolved sugar but also the extra protein coming from the super brown butter, which I covered in my last video ;) Happy Baking 💕

For those who were asking for the honey variation of my American Dreamy Buttercream, here it is!

I have a post on the blog here:
www.sugarologie.com/recipes/honey-buttercream-reci…

It's also in the Cakeculator now, just choose "Honey Buttercream" for your frosting:

A short vid of how to make it down here:

Which cake do you want to see next? Sprinkle cake (maybe 24 layer like this?) or a mousse cake? (Black Forest perhaps?) 🤔🧁❤️

What is the next ✨cake flavor✨ you want to see in my Cakeculator?

I've gotten requests on watching how I come up with my recipes - I do have a process for creating and testing - maybe that would be an interesting video for a new flavor?

Ok update on the buttercream cheese frosting - I'm editing carrot cake now but thought this may be helpful to some - confirmed that Philadelphia full fat cream cheese works and meringue powder (from Wilton) works in place of powdered egg whites. Also tested Philadelphia in the tub - the result was ever so slightly runnier in the end. Still workable for piping and smoothing, but if you have issues, add a little bit more butter to offset the decrease in fat content they use for this kind of cream cheese.

I'll update the description in the video, which can be found here:

Ok! My special stable cream cheese frosting is finally up. I came up with this title and idea in August of 2021 and now have finally finished the recipe 😱. And now that we have a stable cream cheese frosting ... you know what's next.... 🥕 Carrot Lover's Cake 🥕 I've taken polls on all my social media channels and I'll be baking the my most popular cake request with the flavor add-ins that you all voted on. Coming up soon 🧡

Alright American bakers, what are we baking on this week of gratefulness? 🦃🙏🏼🧡 My family asks for the weirdest things so it's peach pie or banana cream pie. (I've created monsters - they can ask for whatever they want and usually get it)
