Paper Sponge

Soft & fluffy old-fashioned 鸡蛋糕 in a cup!! Actually the recipe is baked in a normal cupcases, I improvised it by baking in a tall drinking paper cup (unwaxed) instead! :D The cake looks very yellow right? added yellow colouring? No!! is actually the amount of egg yolks used in the recipe...total 4 yolks + 2 whites.

  2. Love your light and fluffy cake. I always like buying this cake from the asian bakery. I tried making it once but they turn out looking more like kueh.

  4. These look delicious and light, like the ones I get at chinese bakeries. Interestng that the recipe requires more egg yolks.
