Chanced upon this popular Japanese Agura Cake through Facebook with many baking enthusiastic posting their photos almost everyday! And most of these home baker are Chinese educated in my facebook account. The call this the 相思蛋糕 in Chinese and is literately means acacia.
I go for coffee favor for my 1st attempt for this extra soft cake.
The texture of the cake is super soft and feather light!
Another plus point of this cake is corn oil is used instead of butter, that make it a Healthy Cake! Hoooorayy!!
The only set back that I am unhappy is the uneven temperature of my 'time for retirement' oven! ^_^
