If y'all want to be a rebel and can things like cake, go ahead. Just warning that botulism has been found in such low acid canned foods. Yes it is rare but that's the chance you take. Worth, I'd rather be bored than dead or disabled. I'm sure you will have a come back but I'm being serious. There are reasons for having recipes tested with botulism type markers to see if they are destroyed when processed. I prefer not to take chances with my family and friends.

Just one more thought carolyn...if the sh*t hits the fan, and all hell breaks loose and you get sick from improperly canned food, what will you do if there is no medical help available? I say these things out of concern, not because I'm trying to prove myself right. Canning cake has been proven risky and Ball says not to use their jars in the oven. Jars do break in the dry heat. You can do it if you want to. Not going to advocate it here.
