Chiffon Marble Cake

This cake is simple with a dash of sophistication. Ingenuity without frills and decorations makes this a special cake. The recipe is simple to follow and does not require any elaborated timely steps to refine the looks of the cake. It is beautiful enough to get onto the table, as it comes out of the oven. The pillowy interiors make it exquisite, this is a mounting joy for the tastebuds. The cake is not overly sweet, it carries a beautiful balance of cocoa and vanilla. Every bite makes you want more because it is that delicious and doesn’t overpower your senses with a sweet overdose. 

Like many of you, I am not a fan of cream-covered exorbitant cakes. All I need is a cup of coffee and a slice of a simple teacake, a book, and no one around me when it’s time for me. Do you give yourself this luxury of alone time at home?

Minimalism is the path to a good place. Simplicity, well executed in all parts of life is delightful. Especially when it comes to food. Any recipe that calls for too many ingredients, and complicated proceedings makes me go cluttered, and then my thinking power decreases. And end result is usually dissatisfying. 

I remember the time in Masterchef kitchen, where I lost in the very first episode that was played on the TV. No one told me to make it complex and complicated. It was just a Punjabi samosa with matar and longi. I am a pro in that, by the way. Just because, I am on that platform, I thought I should give this a unique shape, or an unattainable twist. I was praised for the flavours and taste, but lost on the execution. Isn’t that silly? 

You know, sharing this with you today, is making me relive that pain of losing. I wish to readjust my mindset and play it all over again. Bringing back this topic reminds me to keep a positive perspective and keep moving forward on this food journey.

Anyways, moving forward towards our Chiffon Marble Cake recipe. The recipe contains eggs. And for my readers, who do not use eggs at home, I have a wonderful recipe for a chocolate sponge for you to try out. This cake turns out amazing. 

You can try making this eggless mango cake too. As mangoes are in season, this recipe makes more sense.

For this marble cake recipe, we require eggs. Separating egg whites and yolks and whisking them adds a lot of air into the batter, and that is the strategy here. Do you know, that you should separate egg yolks from the whites when the eggs are cold? The yolks don’t break and run into the whites, and you get a neat separation. 

If you are looking for good vanilla, I recommend this brand to you. Do not buy those inexpensive vanilla essences for your bakes. They are of no good, and will not enhance the flavour of your cake. We should not expect an exceptional result from an artificial inexpensive flavour bottle. 

You will need a handheld electric beater to whip up the egg whites into a velvety, light, airy mix by gradually adding sugar to it. Don’t overbeat the whites or they end up into stubborn clumps, that refuse to fold into the rest of the batter smoothly. The moment you reach soft peaks, stop right there and don’t run your beater further. 

To half the cake batter,  we add cocoa powder. Make sure to pass the cocoa powder through a sieve. Cocoa powder usually has lumps which are had to incorporate into the batter. 

The most important step for this cake recipe is to fold the ingredient instead of vigorously mixing them. You have the airy, fluffy egg whites, you treat them tenderly. Use a soft silicone spatula to fold them with the rest of the ingredients.
