What is cake Flour?

Wondering what is cake flour and why is that used in this recipe?  I can explain. Cake flour is fine flour with low protein content. Because of this low protein, it adds a tender, delicate crumb to these cupcakes and makes them light and fluffy.

This low protein content influences the gluten or elasticity of the flour thus making cake flour a perfect ingredient for baking.

Other option would be – substitute 1.5 cup cake flour with  1 and 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour + 1/4 cup of Cornflour/cornstarch. How to make

How to make a Whipping Cream Pound Cake?

Start by creaming butter and sugar. Butter, when creamed with sugar, creates air pockets which are essential for soft and fluffy cakes.

Always use soften butter!

Do not use melted butter. Melted butter fails to create air bubbles/pockets. Melted butter cannot emulsify because its a mixture of fat and water and it’s emulsion is already broken. I have tried with both soften and melted butter and soften butter yields great results – softer and moist textured cake. 

Eggs are the base for this recipe!

Though this recipe uses 6 eggs; but surprisingly it has no after taste of eggs once it’s baked. And whatever egg flavor was left in the cake was taken care by adding 1.5 teaspoons of Vanilla essence to the batter. So please do not cut back on the number of eggs.

Sift the dry ingredients together and combine with the wet ingredients. Bake as directed.
