It's so soft, even softer than angel or chiffon cake! To me, this is not sponge cake, it's more to chiffon cake
Whatever it is, it's really nice in taste, and even though I read many reviews that it's rather dry, I didn't find it dry I could eat it plain, but of course eating it with sauce was even better :)
A little on the sweet side, but still aceptable
I have been trying to bake chiffon cakes but so far I couldn't make one with nice look, even though texture was fine
Even though this was not perfect, but it was the first one I could make a chiffon cake that can sit tall nicely :)
Extremely soft that it's not an easy task to cut a thin slice, and cutting with serrated knife is a must, it does make your life much easier :)
It indeed made the cake more moist and so delightful to eat :P
This is the bake of the month of September for Avid Baker's Challenge event hosted by Hanaa

Yay! I'm glad you had such a great experience with this cake. It looks beautiful. The crumb looks perfect. And that "chocolate bath", I mean chocolate sauce, sounds like the perfect partner to that soft and fluffy cake :o)
ReplyDeletethks for choosing this recipe, Hanaa :)
Deletehaha, yes, the kids love to bathe the cake with the chocolate sauce
for me, i prefer to eat it plain or with berry sauce instead :)
What a lovely texture and it looks great with the sauce!

Hi Alice,
ReplyDeleteLovely spongy, fluffy cake! You did great! I find it a little dry, but is good eaten with some blueberry sauce. The chocolate drizzle looks wonderful with the cake, my kids would love it as well!
I like all kinds of soft, flussy cake, please give me a big slice, tq tq!
ReplyDeleteLooks very soft Alice! Glad it worked out well for you. This cake goes well with any sauce in my opinion! :-)
