Who says you need an oven to whip up a delicious cake?
For those of us who prefer to keep things simple (or maybe just don’t have an oven), the no-bake cake is a culinary savior.
Perfect for hot days or dorm room feasts, here’s how you can create a scrumptious no-bake cake that’ll have everyone asking for seconds.
Gather your ingredients
First up, you’ll need:
1 package of biscuits (digestive or graham crackers work wonders)
1/4 cup melted butter
2 cups whipped cream
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon gelatin (optional for setting)
Your choice of fruit for topping (strawberries, bananas, or peaches give a fresh twist)
Crush and mix
Start by crushing your biscuits into a fine crumb. A food processor works best, but a rolling pin and a bit of elbow grease do the trick too.
Mix your biscuit crumbs with the melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of a pan to form your crust, then chill in the fridge to set.
Whip it good
In a bowl, whip the cream and sugar together until it forms stiff peaks. If you’re using gelatin, dissolve it in warm milk and fold it into the whipped cream mix. This step is crucial for that light, airy texture that makes no-bake cakes so delightful.
Layer it up
Pour half of your cream mixture over the biscuit base, smoothing out the top. Feel free to add a layer of your chosen fruit or even a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce. Then, add the remaining cream mixture on top, creating a second layer.
Chill and serve
Let your cake set in the fridge for at least 4 hours, though overnight is best for optimal firmness. Before serving, decorate with more fruit or any other toppings you love. The beauty of no-bake cakes is their versatility, so don’t be afraid to get creative!
Enjoy your creation
Slice up your no-bake masterpiece and serve. It’s a testament to the fact that delicious doesn’t have to be complicated. Whether it’s a casual get-together or you’re just looking to treat yourself, this no-bake cake is sure to impress.
Not only is this no-bake cake a breeze to make, but it also leaves plenty of room for customization. Mix and match flavors, play with toppings and make it your own. Happy no-baking!
Kelvynboy and his former boss Stonebwoy haven’t had the best of relationships in recent times but that does not stop them from jamming to each other’s songs when it hits them so hard.
Over the weekend, Kelvynboy and a couple of friends were enjoying themselves at a party when the DJ fed them with Putuu and one could tell that they had been infected with the Putuu Syndrome.
Kelvynboy was seen jamming to the song, showing the extent to which he likes the song.
This could also be a sign that Kelvynboy is probably over his misunderstanding with his former boss Stonebwoy and won’t mind making amends with him in public or behind closed doors.

Happy Sunday from Software Expand! In this week’s edition of Feedback Loop, we talk about the future of Windows Phone, whether it makes sense to build media centers discuss the preferences for metal vs. plastic on smartphones. All that and more past the break the proof of concept can make.
Just because you can do something, should you? Samsung thinks so. Its second experimentally screened phone taps into its hardware R&D and production clout to offer something not many other companies.
WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM WINDOWS PHONE?
And so, following the Galaxy Round, here’s the Galaxy Edge. If you take the basic shape and concept, it’s the spitting image of the curved-screen Youm prototype spied at CES a little less than two years ago US. Fortunately.
Now, though, it’s a for-real smartphone you can buy. I’ve been testing it out in Japan, where it launched instead of the Note 4, although both the Note 4 and the Note Edge will eventually be available.
Galaxy Note Edge is how much it resembles the Note 4
The ability to shrink the likes of Chrome and Google Maps to a popup window and layer it on top of other apps is also useful. Love to see something similar on the iPhone 6 Plus you just get the Note 4 anyway?
Despite the unusual, curved screen, it still packs all of the good things that made the Note 4 such a strong choice. But bragging rights aside, is there enough of an argument for a curved screen.
METAL VS. PLASTIC PHONE BODIES?
Galaxy Note 4 because the setup is identical here. Yes running on Android 4.4 KitKat.
The exploration of space stands as one of humanity’s greatest achievements. While history has hailed the men and women who reached the cosmos, and those who helped them get there, much of the infrastructure that sent them skyward lies forgotten and dilapidated.
Galaxy Note 4 running Android 4.4 KitKat
And how does Apple’s biggest phone compare to the Note Edge? Well, both remain unwieldy to grip, and the Note Edge is wider. However, the edged screen nuzzles into my hand better and those software tweaks mentioned above give it the advantage. However, just like the stylus, there’s a while before you get the knack of all the little provisions Samsung’s made to ease users into this screen size.
Roland Miller has spent nearly half his life chronicling these landmarks before they are lost forever long been obsessed with space as a child, he dreamed of being an astronaut.
HARDWARE
Its curves are subjective and divisive; my friends and colleagues have offered up reactions ranging from outright bemusement to adoration. The screen looks great, with the punchy contrast and sharpness that’s been a Samsung flagship mainstay for years. We’ll get back to that edge, but it’s the headline part of a 5.6-inch Quad-HD+ display.
ONE-HANDED USE
Make this secondary menu transparent, allowing me to maintain all that screen space. The ability to shrink the likes of Chrome and Google Maps to a popup window and layer it on top of other apps is also useful I’d love to see something similar on the iPhone 6 Plus continues to clear away.
SOFTWARE
If you’re looking to learn more about the stylus uses, I’d advise a quick read of Brad’s Galaxy Note 4 review, because the setup is identical here. Yes, there are TouchWiz bits running on Android 4.4 KitKat.
The Galaxy Note Edge grabs your attention. Its curves are subjective and divisive
But let’s focus on what’s different here: that edge. There are two display modes you can flit between: a slender, unassuming bar that can display a customized message and a more substantial column that attempts to offer extra functionality, notifications or context-dependent menus for certain apps, like the camera.
The front-facing camera is also a top-end sensor compared to the competition, 3.7 megapixels with an f/1.9 lens.
While I’m not a huge selfie taker, you’ll have to ask our Senior Selfie Editor, but I do take a whole lot of photos with my smartphone.
The same high-resolution 2,560 x 1,600 screen we’re certain 1080p Plus
When it’s expanded, the UI is a basic row of icons, which you can navigate with a little swipe. This may look a little unusual, but swishing through the various mini-screens is immensely satisfying.

However, just like the stylus, there’s a while before you get the knack of all the little provisions Samsung’s made to ease users into this screen size.
The screen is marginally smaller than the Note 4, despite the cranked-up pixel count. Like the Note 4, text pops a little more, and pictures you take with the 16MP camera are obviously better replicated on the Note Edge’s screen.
All told, it’s an excellent camera. The image stabilizing works well on all the neon lights that pepper Tokyo, while even people were neatly captured. There’s some noise, but it compares favorably against older Galaxy phones. Daylight meant effortless captures and some really nice shots, if I say so myself.

Well, both remain unwieldy to grip, and the Note Edge is wider. However, the edged screen nuzzles into my hand better and those software tweaks mentioned above give it the advantage.
Happy Sunday from Software Expand! In this week’s edition of Feedback Loop, we talk about the future of Windows Phone, whether it makes sense to build media centers discuss the preferences for metal vs. plastic on smartphones. All that and more past the break the proof of concept can make.
Just because you can do something, should you? Samsung thinks so. Its second experimentally screened phone taps into its hardware R&D and production clout to offer something not many other companies.
WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM WINDOWS PHONE?
And so, following the Galaxy Round, here’s the Galaxy Edge. If you take the basic shape and concept, it’s the spitting image of the curved-screen Youm prototype spied at CES a little less than two years ago US. Fortunately.
Now, though, it’s a for-real smartphone you can buy. I’ve been testing it out in Japan, where it launched instead of the Note 4, although both the Note 4 and the Note Edge will eventually be available.
Galaxy Note Edge is how much it resembles the Note 4
The ability to shrink the likes of Chrome and Google Maps to a popup window and layer it on top of other apps is also useful. Love to see something similar on the iPhone 6 Plus you just get the Note 4 anyway?
Despite the unusual, curved screen, it still packs all of the good things that made the Note 4 such a strong choice. But bragging rights aside, is there enough of an argument for a curved screen.
METAL VS. PLASTIC PHONE BODIES?
Galaxy Note 4 because the setup is identical here. Yes running on Android 4.4 KitKat.
The exploration of space stands as one of humanity’s greatest achievements. While history has hailed the men and women who reached the cosmos, and those who helped them get there, much of the infrastructure that sent them skyward lies forgotten and dilapidated.

And how does Apple’s biggest phone compare to the Note Edge? Well, both remain unwieldy to grip, and the Note Edge is wider. However, the edged screen nuzzles into my hand better and those software tweaks mentioned above give it the advantage. However, just like the stylus, there’s a while before you get the knack of all the little provisions Samsung’s made to ease users into this screen size.

HARDWARE
Its curves are subjective and divisive; my friends and colleagues have offered up reactions ranging from outright bemusement to adoration. The screen looks great, with the punchy contrast and sharpness that’s been a Samsung flagship mainstay for years. We’ll get back to that edge, but it’s the headline part of a 5.6-inch Quad-HD+ display.
ONE-HANDED USE
Make this secondary menu transparent, allowing me to maintain all that screen space. The ability to shrink the likes of Chrome and Google Maps to a popup window and layer it on top of other apps is also useful I’d love to see something similar on the iPhone 6 Plus continues to clear away.
SOFTWARE
If you’re looking to learn more about the stylus uses, I’d advise a quick read of Brad’s Galaxy Note 4 review, because the setup is identical here. Yes, there are TouchWiz bits running on Android 4.4 KitKat.

But let’s focus on what’s different here: that edge. There are two display modes you can flit between: a slender, unassuming bar that can display a customized message and a more substantial column that attempts to offer extra functionality, notifications or context-dependent menus for certain apps, like the camera.
The front-facing camera is also a top-end sensor compared to the competition, 3.7 megapixels with an f/1.9 lens.
While I’m not a huge selfie taker, you’ll have to ask our Senior Selfie Editor, but I do take a whole lot of photos with my smartphone.

When it’s expanded, the UI is a basic row of icons, which you can navigate with a little swipe. This may look a little unusual, but swishing through the various mini-screens is immensely satisfying.

The screen is marginally smaller than the Note 4, despite the cranked-up pixel count. Like the Note 4, text pops a little more, and pictures you take with the 16MP camera are obviously better replicated on the Note Edge’s screen.
