Cooking Question
So I just made this desert that required an item to be folded into another.....I don't think I did this right. How do you do it and if I messed it up is my dessert ruined?

Re: Cooking Question
Folding is a gentle mixing method. You use the folding technique to gently combine light and airy mixtures, such as beaten egg whites with a heavier mixture, such as a batter, whipped cream or flour or when folding in melted chocolate or butter into a batter. For example, when beaten egg whites are folded into a batter, it is done so they will retain as much of their volume as possible. Folding also traps extra air in the batter. In a recipe, sometimes the air pockets that occur need to be eliminated by running a small metal spatula or knife through the batter before baking
