  1. Hi Dassana. I have made this cake recipe a few times now and it has always been devoured. This time I want to use a mirror glaze to cover the cake and was wondering if you have a recipe for that. I have come across a few recipes but they use some amount of water in the preparation. Won’t adding water cause the chocolate to seize? All I get here is compound chocolate.5 stars

  2. Hello,

    I loved your recipe and would like to give a try. But since I dont have beater to whip cream and by hand it will take lot of time. Can I use ready made whipped cream like Cool whip? Do i need to add anything in that like cream cheese?5 stars

  3. oh thank u for ur reply.in this plain vanilla cake recipe can i substitute lemon juice instead of vinegar,and how much i should add?

  4. Hello , I had tried your Black Forest and it was awesome. I really want to try this , but as I’m not a professional baker I dnt have measurement stuffs. I am not able to get through the measurements of 1.5 cups and 1/2 cups and all. Can I give me measurements in grams of possible. I really want to try. If u can help. Thank u 🙂

    1. thank you arjavi. i have mentioned the amount in grams below.

      1.5 cups all purpose flour/maida = 187.5 grams
      ½ cup water = 125 ml
      ½ cup melted butter or oil = 125 ml
      ¾ cup organic unrefined cane sugar or regular sugar = 150 grams

      hope these measurements in grams help.

  5. Hi! Loved the recipe , I have tried the vanilla cake a lot and it always turns out awesome but once I tried the strawberry cream cake and the cream didn’t turn out well. Second time I attempted the same problem arises, I’m not able to get the stiff peaks from the cream despite using 40% fat cream. Any suggestions?

    1. thanks apoorva. firstly use chilled cream. when beating also the cream should be chilled. you can also use a chilled bowl for whipping the cream. just keep the bowl in the fridge for 30 to 40 minutes and then use this bowl for whipping. when i whip 25% fat cream, i whip for a long time regulating between high to medium speed. i usually take about 8 minutes to whip cream. so for 40% fat, i guess it should take about 6 minutes.

  6. Which fruit can replace strawberries here?
    Since this is not the season, strawberries are not available in market.
