Got a Canada Goose. 7 pounds empty weight.

As promised, I made a video of how I process a goose for you all. It’s a little graphic, So I’ll post a warning with it here and on YouTube.

I will post the video tomorrow if you all want to see it.

A box of powdered sugar is one pound:

Powdered sugar right out of the box or the plastic bag weighs 4 1/2 ounces per cup, so a 1-pound box (or 16 ounces) contains about 3 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. If a recipe calls for sifted powdered sugar, weigh out 4 ounces of sifted powdered sugar to equal 1 dry measuring cup. Sifting powdered sugar makes it lighter and fluffier, so it takes up more space in the cup.

I was thinking that a box of powered sugar is equal to 4 cups. I just buy a box. The next time I use a box I will measure it.

So not sure what it shoul look like done but think mine might be made the chess cake View attachment 2404447

That is what it should look like. It will rise to the top of the dish and brown. It will still be a bit jiggly when you take it out. Then it will fall and is ready to eat. Good job!

I've never frosted it. The cake looks like it did exactly what it was supposed to do. It flattens out after taking it out of the oven. How was it with the frosting on it?

THIS IS TOO MUCH SUGAR FOR ME. Aria

The best way is to weigh it. The same is true for sweetened coconut, flour and etc. Measuring can be thrown off by settling and water content among other things.

Also, Measuring cups can be off in size.
