Chiffon cake

gateau mousseline

Le gâteau mousseline c’est un peu le gâteau 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 à cœur. Si vous vous en souvenez j’avais déjà réalisé cette recette aux blancs d’œufs juste ici. Seulement trois ingrédients composent cette recette, des œufs du sucre et de la fécule de maïs alors vous n’aurez plus d’excuses pour faire plaisir à 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…

    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

      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..
