Chiffon cakes are famous for their light , cottony , spongy and soft texture. Who doesn’t love chiffon cakes? I am a bit obsessed with cakes and baking . I bake very regularly and always trying different recipes. I have a secret to share with all lovers of baking about my chiffon cakes. Always separate egg white and beat them until stiff . I test my stiffness by turning my egg white bowl upside down. If it doesn’t fall or run then your cake will be a success. The creaming method is always a success. Pass your sugar in a blender to have that extra fine texture before you cream with egg yolk and butter or oil . This is always a good start. When you bake often then you will have some success secrets you can share with friends. I customise and write my own recipes depending on my experiments.
