Steamed cake is one of the delicious traditional cakes and is very popular with many people. With a soft texture and just the right sweetness, steamed cake is often a favorite choice for various events, from social gatherings to family celebrations. The deliciousness and beauty of the perfectly fluffy steamed cake make it even more attractive.
However, to get a fluffy sponge cake, you need a special technique. Because, sometimes the sponge cake becomes flat or does not rise perfectly after being steamed. This condition can certainly be very disappointing, especially if you have taken the trouble to prepare the dough in the hope of getting perfect results.
The causes of flat steamed cake can vary, from improper stirring techniques, unstable steaming temperatures, to errors in ingredient proportions. To overcome this challenge, there are several tips that can be done. One method that is often done is to add baking soda or other leavening agents so that the cake is not flat.
But besides adding baking soda, you can use another trick to make steamed cake to rise perfectly. This trick was once shared by TikTok user @mustika2816. Through one of the videos uploaded, she admitted to only doing a few simple steps.
Once hot, immediately arrange the molds containing the sponge cake in the steamer, then cover the pan. Make sure the lid of the pan is wrapped with a clean cloth so that no steam drips. Well, this falling steam can make the sponge cake become flat and not soft.
