Chiffon cake

gateau mousseline

Le gĂąteau mousseline c’est un peu le gĂąteau de mon enfance, celui que ma maman nous faisait souvent pour nous faire plaisir. A mon tour de vous faire plaisir et de partager avec vous cette recette qui me tient tant Ă  cƓur. Si vous vous en souvenez j’avais dĂ©jĂ  rĂ©alisĂ© cette recette aux blancs d’Ɠufs juste ici. Seulement trois ingrĂ©dients composent cette recette, des Ɠufs du sucre et de la fĂ©cule de maĂŻs alors vous n’aurez plus d’excuses pour faire plaisir Ă  ceux que vous aimez.

Je vous propose aussi une petite variante, why not cover or garnish the cake with a good homemade jam ?!

    Hi, if I followed your recipe correctly, It seems to me that you made a small input error during the process. ( yellow/white) , wow this recipe looks so complicated, it would be lazy not to try it…

    Coincidence! I just tasted a chiffon cake today called the “Portuguese PĂŁo de LĂ” (Portuguese chiffon cake)

    And it was very light . So I'm going to test.Paula

  • Gluten free I note! Because as usual it looks so good… If I can make a suggestion for those with allergies even if we can adapt the recipes sometimes it would be nice to have a special section for gluten-free cakes… A completely selfish request ;D

    • Emilie
      9.12.12

      No no it's not selfish, Besides, on the right drop-down menu in “category” we already have one “gluten-free” !
      Thank you miss 😉

  • Say, if I make it in a large cake pan, it will work you think?

    • Emilie
      9.12.12

      Yes No problem, the cooking time is indicated for a large cake !

  • Say, I can make it in a big mold you think, or it will collapse? because I don't know the consistency of this cake, never met!

    Bonjour!

    I'm trying your recipe today, my cake is currently baking in my oven. As this is a first for me and I have never tasted it, I don't know if I succeeded. Otherwise, I have a quick question: the eggs you use are around 60g? Because I think the ones I used are a little small. I will if it is as light as yours. See you soon for the verdict.

    • Emilie
      15.6.13

      I use large or medium eggs most of the time…

    I discovered your blog yesterday and I read everything, I love it!! Recipes make me dream so much and this morning I tried this one and it’s just excellent, I didn't have cornstarch so I used potato starch and it worked! It’s really good, thank you for all this sharing..
