Recipe Notes

  • The texture I got in this cake by making it with wheat flour was a little dense than my AP flour cakes but I was happy with it. Because a little this or that doesn’t matter much.
  • You can always make the cake by using AP flour and wheat flour in a 50:50 ratio or make it with AP flour only, the choice is yours.
  • Baking time may vary a little bit for different ovens and different sizes of baking pans.
  • During the baking time when the cake browns perfectly on top (after 40 minutes or so), cover the top loosely with a piece of Aluminium foil until it is fully baked. It helps to prevent from over browning on the top.
  • Store the cake slices in an airtight container and keep refrigerated, consume within a week.
