Hi Haooy Flour,

Your chiffon looks so fine and smooth. Must try out your recipe one of these days.

Hi
Forgot to ask you, are you using canned corn? any particular brand?

Need to coat it with flour...your corn seems to float well in the cake. How you did it?

Hi Honey Boy and MaryMoh,

Thanks for your compliments. :)

Hi Irnen's Footprints,

I'm using canned cream corn. Sorry, I've forgotten which brand I used.

Just mix the cream corn into the batter.

Hi Esther,

Sorry, I don't know the height of the chiffon cake. For three eggs I used a 20cm tube pan, for four eggs I used a 21cm tube pan.

Hi Happy Flour, I've got a 24 cm tube pan.. do you think doubling the recipe will be too much? How would I use your recipe without ending up with a flat cake?
Thanks for help.. you're a great cook.
