Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake

Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake by Sofia Reino

I have always loved this recipe, especially when one is able to cook in in such a way that the middle part is still wet. I have always been afraid of making this recipe as I am not the best at baking. But amazingly enough it came out perfect and I am very proud of myself.

Tea-Time Orange Cake Recipe

Tea-Time Orange Cake Recipe by Hina Gujral

With some Kinnow Oranges in hand, the first and the obvious recipe choice was a Tea-Time Orange Cake. The tanginess of oranges, the subtle sweet notes and the bitterness of orange zest make this Orange Cake a perfect tea time treat.

CHOCOLATE ITALIAN SPONGE CAKE

CHOCOLATE ITALIAN SPONGE CAKE by For the Love of Italian Cooking

An Italian chocolate sponge cake has only four ingredients: eggs, sugar, flour and cocoa powder. Vanilla can be added to enhance the chocolate flavour. The beauty of this cake is that it has no fat, no dairy, and no leavening agents. Stiffly beaten egg whites make this cake airy, soft, and spongy.

Butter Free Chocolate Orange Rum Cake

Butter Free Chocolate Orange Rum Cake by Hungry Jenny

These sunk a little when I made them, but I have adjusted the temperature and baking time so that this hopefully won't happen to you... Failing that, the chocolate icing is a good way to cover it up! http://hungryjenny.blogspot.com/2010/11/butter-free-chocolate-orange-rum-cake.html

Madeleines

Madeleines by Christine

I had been longing to make madeleines or small French Sponge Cake for quite some time. All this while, I postponed the idea of making madeleines because I could not find the shell shaped molds typically designed for madeleines. I thought I would not be exactly baking madeleines if I didn't bake the cake in pans with shell-shaped…

Whole Wheat Coffee Chocolate Cake

Whole Wheat Coffee Chocolate Cake by Hina Gujral

As a home baker, I always try to substitute All Purpose Flour with whole grains, especially in breads or muffins but sometimes it is inevitable to replace All Purpose Flour to get the perfect end results. Many a times my friends complain about denser texture of whole grain cakes, breads and muffins, what I learnt from my baking…

Chocolate Mousse in Mousse Crust

Chocolate Mousse in Mousse Crust by Farrell May Podgorsek

This is such a fun desset to make and eat. It takes you back to the late 1970's. It makes a nice presentation at the table. It is very rich, but so worth the calories. My husband requests it for his birthday dessert every year.
