One of the troubles with baking from scratch is how the ingredients are measured -- by volume instead of by weight. I have a scale at home and have converted my recipes (with help from Mastercook) from cup measurements for dry ingredients to ounce/pound measurements. This ensures that the cake comes out well each and every time. Consistent results and good results.
