I had some leftover durian flesh from my No Bake Durian Cheese Tart that I made last week so I used that for a pound cake. This is pretty much the same as my Vanilla Pound Cake, just with durian added. If you love durian you gotta try this cake. 上星期做免焗榴槤芝士撻時剩下了少許榴槤肉,於是便做了這個磅蛋糕。蛋糕配方基本上跟雲尼拿磅蛋糕差不多,只是增添了榴槤肉而已,榴槤控一定要試試。 If you don't have … Continue reading Durian Pound Cake 榴槤磅蛋糕

Vanilla Pound Cake 雲尼拿磅蛋糕
Pound cake is named for the traditional proportions of a pound each of flour, butter, sugar and eggs. The following is a scaled down version that incorporates leavening agent (baking powder) for a less dense pound cake and milk for added moisture. I also tried something new by substituting trehalose for a portion of the … Continue reading Vanilla Pound Cake 雲尼拿磅蛋糕
Espresso Cotton Cake 特濃咖啡棉花蛋糕
This is the coffee version of my Tang Mian Sponge Cake (or Cotton Cake). This time I lined my cake pan with cardboard before inserting my parchment paper. This step is not a must, but it could further reduce the rate of the heat conduction so the cake would be less likely to crack on … Continue reading Espresso Cotton Cake 特濃咖啡棉花蛋糕
Pandan Cotton Cake 古早味班蘭蛋糕
This cake is like a fusion of Pandan Chiffon Cake and Cotton Soft Sponge Cake but with water bath added during baking. Water bath adds moisture to the cake, which literally jiggles after it comes right out of the oven. Without the water bath, the cake is soft and fluffy but yet firm enough to … Continue reading Pandan Cotton Cake 古早味班蘭蛋糕
Gluten-Free Tangerine Chiffon Cake 無麩質柑橘戚風蛋糕
This gluten-free chiffon cake is an adaption from my Orange Chiffon Cake and I have to say that it tastes as light and fluffy as any chiffon cake made with wheat flour! Chiffon cake does not rely on gluten but beaten egg whites to help it rise. So if you could whip a gorgeous meringue … Continue reading Gluten-Free Tangerine Chiffon Cake 無麩質柑橘戚風蛋糕
Basic Sponge Cake 2 原味海綿蛋糕 (二)
At times I get asked whether sponge cake can be use for fondant cake construction. Well, this question is a bit tricky because it depends on which sponge cake recipe is used and how the cake is prepared before fondant is draped on. Fondant itself is pretty heavy. With all the weight of the fondant … Continue reading Basic Sponge Cake 2 原味海綿蛋糕 (二)
Lemon Chiffon Cake 檸檬戚風蛋糕
I saw some pink lemons at the grocery store the past weekend. I’ve only heard about them so I bought some home out of curiosity. Pink variegated lemons have yellow-and-green-striped rind which fades when ripening. The flesh is pink due to lycopene, a red carotenoid pigment that is also found in tomatoes, watermelons and pink … Continue reading Lemon Chiffon Cake 檸檬戚風蛋糕
Chocolate Butter Cake 朱古力牛油蛋糕
A reader asked me if it was possible to use my Fluffy Chocolate Cupcakes recipe to make a chocolate layer cake for fondant cake. My answer was a no as the cake is too soft and fluffy so would be easily distorted. When the fondant is draped over, the icing may gradually ooze out from … Continue reading Chocolate Butter Cake 朱古力牛油蛋糕
Milo Chiffon Cake 美錄戚風蛋糕
If you ask me which type of cake I like most, my answer would definitely be chiffon cakes. They are moist and tender. They are soft and fluffy (I will show you a video of my springy cake at the end of this post). They are easy to make and the recipe is versatile enough to … Continue reading Milo Chiffon Cake 美錄戚風蛋糕
No Bake Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake with Chocolate Ganache 黑朱古力慕絲凍餅配朱古力醬
I had a hot pot dinner with my friends at our house over the weekend and I made a chocolate mousse cake for my friend’s birthday. Her son is allergic to egg so I always look for eggless options so everyone could enjoy the dessert. I have made him mousse cake with eggless biscuit base … Continue reading No Bake Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake with Chocolate Ganache 黑朱古力慕絲凍餅配朱古力醬
