Je n'avais jamais réussi un gâteau qui ne s'effondrait pas, et là tout a changé. Les explications sur le crémage du beurre et du sucre, puis sur la bonne température du four, m'ont enfin permis d'obtenir une mie moelleuse et régulière. Mon quatre-quarts et mon gâteau au yaourt sont devenus des classiques à la maison. J'aurais aimé un peu plus sur les glaçages, mais pour les bases c'est vraiment parfait et je le conseille.
