Peach Yogurt Cake

Spring's here, showing you our collection of Citibank's hong bao over the years. Happy CNY

Came across Orangette's Lemon Yogurt Cake, and since it had been a while since I last baked a cake, I had to try this one. As it is, I had waited a day before attempting.

To my dismay, the cake did not turn out as it should :( If you look at the slides above, you'll see that the texture is not cake like at all, it's very kueh like! Must have converted the recipe wrongly. But give credit where credit's due, this is about the easiest cake to put together. No hassle of setting up the mixer, just a big mixing bowl and wooden spoon. I will most definitely try this again. The kueh is rather tasty, and since 3 big eggs were added, it's rather eggy, but not off-putting, if you know what I mean.

As I was agonising over this setback, I checked Happy Home Baker's site just to look at the texture of their cakes. And I found another variation of it, with proper weights of the ingredient. Why didn't I find this earlier? Wonder who's gonna eat this kueh. BTW, SE this is another super easy bake which you can attempt, don't be fooled by the result of this bake, k?


Update (30 Jan 2008): Baked the Orange Yogurt Cake tonight. And boy, was it good and easy! I had watched the video on Orangette's blog and it inspired me to give it another shot. It was a real orangey cake, suitable for people who enjoy the fruit, like my son. A certain birthday person was treated to a piece and complimented it. Guess it suits the person's tastebuds more than Asians? But I had enjoyed it very much. Btw SE, sorry to hear about the little accident in your kitchen. Hope that won't put you off baking. How about steaming a cake?
