Crumb

Appears in

Published 2022

Definition: Crumb refers to the holes inside your baked good and how small, large, even, or uneven they are. For instance, a delicate cake should have a tight yet even crumb when you cut into it, while a flaky biscuit should have a more open crumb that is uneven.
Why Assessing Crumb Matters: The crumb is a clear indication of the texture of your final baked good, and whether the technique was executed properly. Assessing the crumb can help identify what might have gone wrong.
