FAQs AND QUESTIONs

 

Advertisement

Why did my chiffon cake fall out of the pan?

 

Advertisement
  • Unfortunately, once the cake is flipped, it may fall out of the pan if you did not grease it or if it was not baked through. Additionally, I advise against using tube pans with the side prongs designed to invert the pan without a can or bottle.

 

Advertisement
  • Unfortunately, once inverted, these prongs will sometimes pull the pan’s sides away from the center, which can lead to the cake falling out of the pan. I suggest inverting your pan on a can or bottle even if it has prongs.

Why is my chiffon cake dense?

 

Advertisement
  • A chiffon cake should not be as dense as, say, a pound cake, even though it is denser than an angel food cake. If yours come out dense or dry, it’s either because you overmixed the batter after adding the egg whites, or you didn’t whip them to stiff peaks. Your cake will probably be dense if you deflate your egg whites.
