I like pandan, but i'm lazy to squeeze coconut milk...
ReplyDeleteHi Somewhere in Singapore,
ReplyDeleteSame for me, lazy... so once in a while I will use freshly squeeze coconut milk. I find that the taste and smell of Pandan Chiffon Cake using freshly squeeze coconut milk is really fantastic.:)
Nicely baked chiffon cake!
ReplyDeleteI also prefer freshly squeeze coconut milk, find it nicer...
ReplyDeleteHi Kitchen Corner,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your nice words. :)
Hi, my 1st time here, I like your blog, you are a good baker, will add you in my blog list and explore it later. I think the 1st recipe from you I will try out is Macaron, never eat and bake before..
ReplyDeleteHi Sonia,
ReplyDeleteWelcome, browsing my delicious bakes. Happy Baking. :)
hello, can i know what size of eggs do you use? thanks
ReplyDeletehi there, your pandan chiffon cake looks so nice(: i just baked one, but when i remove the pan, the bottom of the chiffon cake caved in. Can i know what is the reason? and when i tried to cut it, the chiffon cake was squashed!
ReplyDeleteHi Yin,
ReplyDeleteI used about 60-65g egg without shell.
Hi Bernice,
ReplyDeleteYour egg white was not beat properly. Egg white should whisk until about stiff peak. Do try again.
What a nice blog! this cake is perfect . I like it s colour too :)
ReplyDeleteHi Snooky Doodle,

Hi Happy Flour,
ReplyDeleteI love Pandan Chiffon cake!! I have one doubt about chiffon cake...Is that compulsory to use tube pan? how bout the normal spring form or round pan?
Hi Vicky 2074,
ReplyDeleteYes, chiffon cake has to use tube pan. If you use normal cake pan, the cake will collapse after baking.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteCan you explain what the is pandan juice and pandan paste and where do you get it from please?
Hi Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteExtract juice from pandan leaves to get Pandan juice. You can buy pandan leaf from supermarket or wet market.
Pandan paste is a kind of essence which has pandan flavor and colouring included in it. You can get pandan paste from bakery mart.
