CAN I USE WHEAT FLOUR INSTEAD OF ALL-PURPOSE/FLOUR?
For a light and soft cake, all-purpose flour is preferred. Using wheat flour might result in a dense cake. If you prefer to use wheat flour choose fine ground flour and add an extra 2 or 3 tablespoons of milk. Also, add extra sugar syrup to moist the cake
CAN I USE BUTTER INSTEAD OF OIL?
Yes, oil can be substituted with melted unsalted butter but as I told you in my other cake recipes oil makes the moist cake. I would recommend flavorless oil
HOW CAN I ADOPT THE RECIPE FOR OTHER CAKE PANS?
I have used a 7-inch cake pan. You can use the same proportion and split it into two 6 inch pans. Double the recipe for a 9-inch Rainbow cake
HOW LONG SHOULD I MICROWAVE MILK?
I have microwaved for 2 minutes but time might vary based on your microwave oven setting. Microwave milk turns hot.
CAN I BOIL MILK ON THE STOVETOP?
Yes, you can cook milk just till it turns warm avoid boiling milk.
CAN I USE MILK FROM THE FRIDGE?
hot milk helps to raise the cake and make it spongy so I would recommend it. Avoid using milk directly from the fridge
CAN I BAKE IN THE PAN?
Yes place a stand and preheat the pan for 10 minutes on medium flame. Place the cake pan on top, cover with a lid and cook for 30-40 minutes on low flame
should I split the batter into 5 partitions of different colors or can I split more?
You can split the batter into 5-7 partitions. I haven’t tried more partitions than that.
Should I add the entire batch of one color better?
No, you can add half the quantity of one color .add half the quantity of all the partition batters in concentric circles then repeat the pattern
Can I skip sugar syrup?
Yes, sugar syrup is optional you can skip it if you are not a fan of that cake texture. In this case, increase the sugar in the cake batter.
can I skip sprinkles?
Yes, sprinkles are optional.
