Baking By neda_la Updated 19 Jan 2013 , 9:08pm by BakingIrene
Hello all,
I have been trying to find a nice yellow or white cake recipe to be made from scratch!! All of the ones I found have cake flour!!
Unfortunately, there is no cake flour here where I live!
Can someone please give me a recipe for a moist and fluffy yellow/golden or white cake that's not made with cake flour?? PLEASE?
A substitute for cake flour is replacing 2 tbs with 2 tbsp cornstarch per each cup flour. I have had this written down for emergency use, but haven't tried it yet. Warren Brown uses potato starch with regular flour for his cakes (about 2 oz per 8 oz regular flour which is approximately 1/3 cup added per 2 cup flour) so maybe this can be a general substitute as well. If one of these substitutions work for you, you can try all those recipes using cake flour. Let us know if it works!

me too--had it memorized even--never tried it
till after my first ten million cakes i finally tried it for a family pound cake
it worked -- it was good
but
it tasted corny!!!
kid you not
so i'd never use it again
but yes it is touted everywhere for that substitution
like smooth sweet creamy textureless cakey cornbread!!!!!!
was great with strawberries & whipped cream though
wonder what rice flour would do
let's write that one down and start counting to ten million
When you use yogurt instead of milk you NEED to use regular flour
