Feeling like the cake decorating field had become saturated in England, Lodge decided to move to the United States and teach classes on cake decorating.

Foam (culinary) foaming power at a specific protein concentration is determined. A protein will always have certain stresses that it must overcome, such as gravitational and mechanical; it is the protein's ability to stabilize foam against these stresses that determines the foam's stability. The foam's stability is usually expressed as the time required for 50% of the liquid to drain from foam (a 50% reduction in foam volume). Foam (culinary) In cuisine, foam is a gelling or stabilizing agent in which air is suspended. Foams have been present in many forms over the history of cooking, such as whipped cream, meringue and
