Before measuring the flour, stir it with a spoon if it is compacted. Then lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup until it is heaped above the rim. Do NOT shake or tap the cup to settle the flour, or you will have more flour than you need. Slide a spatula or knife across the top to level.<\/p>\n<p>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"ca-pub-0466605792016836\";\n\/* food and drink *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"3648486817\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Beca&#8217;s Tiered Macaroon and Sugar Dough Biscuit, which was a cake stand made out of biscuit with macaroons as the cakes, earned her \n<a class=\"moretag\" href=\"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/10358\/the-great-british-bake-off-2013-becas-tiered-macaroon-and-sugar-dough-biscuit\/\"> [...]<\/a>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10359,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[81],"tags":[82],"class_list":["post-10358","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bake-off","tag-bakeoff"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/macarons.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10358","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10358"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10358\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10362,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10358\/revisions\/10362"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10359"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10358"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10358"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10358"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
