Darling there's no cake flour in UK. There are cake mixes . Other wise there purpose flour can I use that flour ??? Please thank you
This is the most underrated cake in the world. I had no idea what cake even was until I made this masterpiece. Thank you! Everyone thought it was amazing and I gave you all the credit. Thank you so very much for saving my butt. I forgot to order a cake so I had to make one. It went very well. 10/10 would recommend. It's not as easy as it looks but it's well worth doing right.

Hi! If you don't mind me asking, did you defrost the cake before consuming or ate it right after you took it out of the fridge?
Wow, if I live close, I would love to order!

Thanks for sharing your talent. I love how easy and tasty this is i made it for my family event this past weekend, and it was not enough 😅. My question is, is I want to make a 10inch round cake. What would the recipe look like and cook for how long? And also is there a formula on going up or down on ingredients if I wanted to make a 4in or adventure out on making a half sheet? Ty 😊

Hi, sorry for the late response. You can double the recipe for 10 inch or triple for half sheet. For the 4” cake I say use this same recipe and make some extra cupcakes with the extra batter. For the 10” it depends on how much batter your adding to the pan. Doubling the amount will still be a lot of batter for two 10” pan. Cooking time varies on this. Approximately 25-30 minutes. Hopes this helps. Thanks for giving this recipe a try. I’m glad to hear you and your family enjoyed it.

Yes you can replace it with the vanilla extract. 2 tsp.
How much heavy whipping cream did you use for the cake? I always struggle with how much and end up with too little. Did you use two quarts? Also, can i make the assembled cake the night before and keep it in the fridge? Or do you recommend just baking the cake, keeping in the fridge and then assemble the day off?

You can do either or. I prefer baking my sponge cake night or day prior then decorating next day that way the cake has time to rest prior to decorating. Yes you can assemble night before.

@@ZoeyandVFam Thank you so much! Another gal made her frosting with 1 cup whipping cream to 1 tbsp pudding mix and when I do that, my frosting sets up really fast and leaves lots of air pockets so it's not smooth. I see you use 2 cups to 1 tbsp which was what I was thinking I could do so I'm so glad to see your recipe calls for this! I can't wait to make this again.
Hi.. how can i keep my fruits fresh on cake? Will it change the color in a days? How can i avoid that?
@ZoeyandVFam
Жыл бұрын
Hi, you can brush the fruits with canned fruit juice but that usually helps it for 1-2 days. For longer duration you can make a fruit glaze to preserve the moisture and colors of the fruits. Hope this helps.
Which cake flour do you mean? Like the plain cake flour? Or the ones that are prepared for you like chocolate, vanilla, strawberry? I don’t know if I’m making sense 😅

My batter is always full of air bubbles and my cake is always wet on top after baking. I try not to over-mix my batter but there’s the sugar batter streaks. Any advice?
@ZoeyandVFam
Жыл бұрын
Do you add the meringue all at once or divide into 2-3? To avoid the batter streak try diving into four. Bang your tray w/batter in it on the counter two times to remove air bubbles before baking. Hope this helps.
@suzanx

I made this batter and it works fine for me. Make sure your egg white is beat well and stiff. You might not have pounded the cake pan on the counter enough to remove air bubbles before baking, so drop it a few times. You’ll see holes at the top where air escapes. Maybe check your oven as well and make sure you’re baking in the middle rack. Maybe your oven isn’t getting hot enough. I’m horrible at baking but this was easy for me.

Cake flour is preferred. You can make cake flour yourself. To do so, measure out 1 cup of all-purpose flour into a bowl. Then, scoop out 2 Tablespoons of the flour and replace with 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch.
Hello! I tried your recipe twice & both times, my cake shrank… do you know why?
@ZoeyandVFam
Жыл бұрын
Hi, the cake will shrink slightly but should not deflate so much. If it did it could be due to over-mixing the batter, over-mixing the meringue, temperature to high, or opening the oven door while baking.
It's great video!! I have trouble with whipped cream frosting, and I saw one of the ingredients for the whip cream was vanilla pudding.. I will keep that in mind next time ❤❤ thanks a million!
