I have just tried this recipe, I covered it with aluminium foil and baked in a rectangular pan. Batter was enough for two cakes. Baked for about 20-25 min each. Both cakes came out perfectly moist and soft. Thanks for this flawless recipe. It’s definitely a keeper recipe.😊
Made this cake last week for my sisters birthday and it was so delicious with chocolate cream cheese frosting! A really moist and delicious chocolate cake that will be my go to recipe from now on 🥰 Thank you!
Great videos, please would you mind editing the description to add the metric quantities alongside the cup measurements (watching from England 😊) Thank you!
@@almawilde2435 hello from London. Sorry my recipes works with cup measurements. I would not recommend converting it in metric quantities. You can get the measuring cups from Tesco or Sainsburys. Cups measurements saves so much time and utensils. I will soon be sharing my vanilla recipe that’s also in cups. X
Thank you for this easy and amazing recipe. Please upload more videos. Love watching you making cakes and please share recipe of your other cakes as well❤️, Love and lots of prayers for you and your family❤️
It helps them bake evenly without getting a dome. As you can see my cakes came out pretty much flat. So less waste of cake cuttings. Peace and love Faryal
Hi I have made this cake yesterday and it was amazing. I made the 8 inch round cake layers. Can you tell me what the recipe would be for 8 inch square cakes please. Thank you.
Square cake needs more batter. I would personally double the recipe as in square cakes the corners usually have a dip so you need to put more batter in each pan. Thank you
They look amazing! I love the glossy finish. I love the extra tip of covering in cling film. Can I please ask, why do my cakes crack or rise in the middle?
Either you are adding too much baking powder or baking soda or your oven temperature is high. Lower your oven temperature while baking and see if does it again. If the problem still exists then reduce the amount of baking powder and soda.
Helo feryal hopefully you will be happy and healthy.i inspired by ur making cake first time and after that u learn and finely u started your own cake business.its very very energetic fr all girls who wish and want to do some thing in life .i also love to bake cakes but i don't take any classes from any institute .now i want to do something like want to open my own cake shop.i dont know i can do or not .

Make different cakes and desserts at home first. Once you are completely confident then start taking orders. Not sure what rules and regulations you need to follow to run a food business in Spain so you will have to do some research on it. Even if doing from home do it properly in legal way. Unfortunately you can’t reduce the sugar in buttercream as it will effect the over all consistency of the buttercream. Thank you Peace and love Faryal
Thank you for your share Faryal! Please let me know if I wanted to bake in two 6" cake pans, what would be the instructions for baking time(I guess temperature remains the same) and also how much batter in each pan. I really appreciate it 💖.
Temperature remains the same but if you are baking thick layers they will take longer time than usual. I prefer baking each layer separately as it takes less baking time and easier to torte. For instance if I need 4 layers inside the cake I will bake in 4 pans about an inch high cake layer. I bake at lower temperature at 160 degrees so my 8” layer takes about 55-60min and 6” layer about 45-5min. I can fit 3 pans in my oven at a time.
@@Scrumptiouscakesbyfairy Thank you so much Faryal for your detailed answer. Yes I will try chocolate cake and I think the cake pan material also effect the baking time. In sha Allah it will come out good. Takecare 💖
ali sadaqat I don’t make vanilla cake with oil as it doesn’t give much flavour to the cake. Using butter in vanilla cake makes it flavourful. Thank you Peace and love Faryal
Hi there, thank you for sharing your recipes aswell as tips and tricks. Really appreciate. Could you please add ingredients by weight also. Cup measurements stress me out as there are different sized cups. I'm making this cake tomorrow so if you could kindly confirm the weight of the ingredients. Much appreciated x
To be honest I never converted this recipe to grams. I use UK measuring cups if that’s any help. I find cups measurements very easy. If you wanna covert it to gms you will have to convert each Ingredient by google search as 1 cup sugar might not be same as 1 cup flour due to their density of that makes sense? Thank you
It distributes the heat better. The top comes out more flat. Top doesn’t get too brown. These are the few reasons I cover the pans while baking. Hope I answered your question. Thank you
Hi, I made this cake. It’s so delicious I just love the taste but I don’t know what I did wrong because my cake is very crumbly and the sides are coming off while I am trimming it even though its completely on room temperature. Please can you guide me.
I want to make a 6inch square cake of about 4layers is this the correct measurements or does it need to be doubled n if so what will be d measurements thank u
It will be very difficult to cut down the recipe for a 6”. What I do is I do is I divide the batter in 4 equal parts. Bake all 4 layers and I freeze the extra layer and use layer for the cake pops or desserts. I also bake cupcakes with the extra batter and they goes down like a treat in my house. If you can calculate the measurements to 3/4 then I guess that’s the amount you need for just a 6”. I know calculating that is not going to be easy so I don’t take that headache 😂🙈I just bake extra layer or cupcakes. Hope that helps x
@@Scrumptiouscakesbyfairy I made it today with buttermilk because I didnt have whole milk. It was great! I made two - 6 inch layers 2 inch pans using half the recipe listed here. I baked them on 320 F for 35 min covered. Only thing that happened was the tops of the cakes stuck to the cover when I took them off. But I cut the tops anyway to level the. So no biggie. Next time I would spray the cover pan. Thank you!
@@christier66 great! Good to know the buttermilk worked. Regarding the cake sticking to the top cover means that you filled the pan too much or either the pan wasn’t deep enough. Try to use deep pan or less batter in the pan and then it wouldn’t reach the top cover. 😊
Hello sis. Can I use this recipe in one 8'inch cake pan? As I only have one pan and can I use the recipe the whole recipe and bake in one 8'inch pan. Thank you in advance :)
No don’t use it in one pan as it’s too much batter to put in one pan it will rise so need space to rise. Divide the batter in 3 and bake it in 3 batches of you only have one tin. I would recommend invest in pans as they will save you time and labour.
Hello Faryal, Could you make video or share the recipe for eggless cake? And 2nd is which frosting is best for cake whipping cream or butter cream. Thanks 🙏 Fatyal ji
Aah thats something I haven’t tried. I have never baked an eggless cake. If you are making the fondant finish cake then buttercream. If you want an old school taste then whipping cream. Personally I like old school fresh cream cakes but for customers I only do buttercream and fondant cakes. It totally depends what your customer is asking for and what you want to eat if you are making it for yourself. I like both so depends on my mood.
@@Scrumptiouscakesbyfairy Thank you much Faryal Ji,🙏🙏for reply Your so gorgeous God bless you Oh my question is butter cream frosting and filling also same butter cream and whipping cream frosting and same whipping cream or we can mix and match
@@prabhpreetkaur4850 ok so fresh cream or whipping cream doesn’t go well with buttercream if you want to use both on a cake at ye same time. I only mix ganache with buttercream on a cake. Like in between layers I do buttercream and outside covering I do ganache. I keep the fresh cream cakes with fresh cream only. Sometimes I do a drip of melted ganache on top which gives a really nice flavour. Hope I answered your question 🙂
@@Scrumptiouscakesbyfairy 🙏yes perfect answered you are so great I’ll make cake on my wedding anniversary. I’ll use your frosting recipe , I like you and your recipes. I make cake just for personal for me , I just always confused with frosting which is good inside and outside for the cake now You solve my confusion. I lives in USA ❤️you Faryal Ji Thank you so much God bless you
Assalam-o-alaiqum Faryal, can you please let me know how to make a 3 pound cake with the same recipe as yours ? I want to have the exact measurements for it
I don’t weigh my cakes as we use serving size and size of the cake for guidance not weight so really not sure how much 3pound is going to be. I am guessing you mean a small 6” size cake. It’s difficult to cut down the recipe to 6”. What I usually do is I make the whole recipe. Bake 6” cake layers and with the leftover batter I either make one more cake layer and freeze it for cake pops use or make cupcakes. You probably need 3/4 recipe to make a perfect 6” cake if you can do the calculations. Hope this helps Thank you
I prefer using Dutch processed cocoa powder. Cocoa powder which has very dark brown colour are usually Dutch processed cocoa powder. I don’t mind the brand as long as it’s the Dutch processed one. In UK I use Tesco’s, Sainsbury’s and Aldi’s. Hope this helps Thank you
160 degrees celsius? It looks like you set it lower in the video. I am trying to convert to fahrenheit, but not sure what to use. This seems like a critical step.
That’s a tricky one. Cause if you do half the recipe it would not be enough to make a 6”. If you divide the amount of recipe to 3/4 then it will make a 6” cake. What I usually do is I make the cupcakes from the left over batter. Sometimes I e eat those at home or sometime some customer buys that.
Ok I didn’t get what you mean by height ? Each baked layer is at least 1” deep as you can see in the video. So once I add my buttercream the cake ends up at 4.5” approx. If you will bake each layer separately it will give you more height in comparison to baking in one. Hope this clears things for you. Peace and love Faryal
I protect the cake batter to get direct heat in the center by covering it. If you don’t cover you will most likely get a dome in the centre. You can see how flat my cake layers are once baked. The reason I remove it in the end is so that they can get proper heat on the tops. Once the cake sponge is risen you can remove the tray if that makes sense. Thank you Peace and love Faryal

Where to keep cake after covering it with cling film in refrigerator or room temperature
Either is fine. As this cake has oil not butter so it doesn’t get hard in the fridge.

You can use melted butter but it will not give the same moistness as oil. Oil keeps this sponge soft and moist for days.

Nice job, thank you.
It distributes the heat better. The top comes out more flat. Top doesn’t get too brown. These are the few reasons I cover the pans while baking.

There is no vanilla flavoring in the cake? I am in the U.S. and I have never made a cake without it, even a chocolate cake.
Yes I do not add vanilla on my chocolate cake. Don’t feel the need to add that especially in this recipe x
How much butter did you use in your buttercream recipe. Please

If I have just one tin, can I use it three times while mixed cake material is sitting in the room temprature_
Yes you can but having 3 tins and baking at the same time will save your electricity. So do consider investing in the baking tins😊
Thank you! 😊 That's true, saves both time and electricity. 👌
Plz share vanilla cake same like this cake soft moist... not sponge cake
For vanilla I make a butter based sponge cake. I find the oil doesn’t enhance the flavour of vanilla cake. So I prefer butter recipe over oil.
What's the best cocoa powder to use pls?
I prefer using Dutch processed cocoa powder. Cocoa powder which has very dark brown colour are usually Dutch processed cocoa powder. I don’t mind the brand as long as it’s the Dutch processed one. In UK I use Tesco’s, Sainsbury’s and Aldi’s.

Yes it’s 160 degrees 🙂
Is der any substitute for coco powder?
Not in this recipe sorry.
What degree Fahrenheit would you bake this at & for how long?
Temperature is mentioned in the description. For timing you will have to watch the video cause it’s not fixed time.
Hi faryal, how can you scale down for a 6inch cake? Thanks x
That’s a tricky one. Cause if you do half the recipe it would not be enough to make a 6”. If you divide the amount of recipe to 3/4 then it will make a 6” cake. What I usually do is I make the cupcakes from the left over batter. Sometimes I e eat those at home or sometime some customer buys that.
@@Scrumptiouscakesbyfairy awww thank you that makes sense xxx
if I use sweetened coco powder then how much I use sugar plz ans
This recipe calls for unsweetened cocoa powder it’s not meant for sweetened cocoa powder.
How many grams is your cup?
Does this cake has height? Because some cakes which are dense mostly doesnt have height
Ok I didn’t get what you mean by height ? Each baked layer is at least 1” deep as you can see in the video. So once I add my buttercream the cake ends up at 4.5” approx. If you will bake each layer separately it will give you more height in comparison to baking in one. Hope this clears things for you.
