    Hello from London. Thanks so much for sharing a detailed recipe of your Pandan cake. I also read your blog about this Pandan cake. One thing I learned is the waterbath technique, which is very effective for having a soft, Moist and pillowy chiffon cake. My cakes are no longer deflating.☺️

    Sorry for late response. It will become soft once it is back to room temperature but not melting or too soft. Do not required to add anything. But, you can beat a little bit with machine to get the smooth texture. If you want to make pandan buttercream, then it is fine to add thick pandan juice. Cheers :)

    This cake is beautiful and the recipe is top notch. I got a few suggestions - the cake is too tall which could be circumvent by baking the cake in a larger diameter round baking pan. The decorations are lacking green colour - could have save some icing and put green pandan paste for the green colour piping. Or simply cut some pandan leaves into petals like leaves.
