I made this cake yesterday and I am telling u I it was awesome.It came out so moist and soft .i dont have a oven so i made it in microwave.It was really delicious.thanks for the superb recipe…
Thanks for the recipe. I baked a cake for the first time and it came out really well.
Can we use the pressure cooker to bake if so the procedure to do in cooker
Why does my cake does not cook in the middle? I use convection.
if your cake is getting colour on top and not cooking in the middle, place a sheet of foil on top and continue cooking
Dear Aarthi, thank you for the wonderful recipe. I wish to know whether i can reduce the proportion of the ingredients for a smaller cake? like half all or make all 1/3 in equal reduction?
