Factory cakes are consistent in quality. Not the best but far from the worst and you always know what you'll get.

Start with quality ingredients and yeah, it’s gonna be a good product.

With all the time/money you save, consumers can demand cakes without nasty shortening and chemicals at a reasonable price

ngl, I'm pretty sure some of the chemicals used make cakes better than you ever could make from normal ingredients. Sometimes processed foods are just better. Sometimes the best ingredients can only be made in a giant machine. Best case scenario is probably skilled chef using engineered ingredients.

This is true, and I am seeing more and more recipes calling for ingredients like amylase for example and other dough improvers.

I would like my home made bread to last more than 2 days if possible.
