Hi sweetbites,
Thank for your compliment.
Hi if i do not have the cake flour, can i use self raising flour?
Hi Ean,
You can use plain flour instead.
Hi If i only have 21cm tube pan, can i use this recipe?
Hi Ean,
It fine to use a 21cm tube pan.
hi 85g juice is roughly how many spoon ?
Hi Ean,
I don't know how many tablespoon. It about the juice of one orange.
To use the plain flour, i have to add more baking powder? been trying few recipe to make chiffon cake, but fail :(..too bad.

Hi, happy flour,
I tried this recipe the cake shrink after cool down, do you know why can advice? Thanks
Hi Anonymous,
You might have over whipped the egg whites, the cake will rise very high during baking process and it collapsed during cooling.
Haiya.. I thought this time i whipped a perfect one :) stiff peak is very hard meringue right even you turn the bowl it wont fall down? Never have a success cake:( the cake crack after 5-10 min in the oven, after cool down it was very moist and not fluffy. Any more tips? Hehe..Thanks for your advice will try it again after I finished this one.
Hi Anonymous,
Either you had over folded the batter or not well baked. Chiffon cake need a little more practice then you can master it. Don't give up.
Thanks very much happy flour! Will not give up cause my little one likes it very much. Just last question how you gently fold the meringue until is well combine?
Yes , You have to continue trying . I faced the same problem last time too. My problem was my.oven temperatur is too high, i reduce it and longer the baking time, it success.
Hi Anonymous,
With a quick and gentle stroke, must fold from the bottom.
