Chiffon cake is so nice, not so 'fat' as normal cake, not so dry as sponge cake. It is really nice even just simply eating like that. I likes to bake it for my kids when I'm free. You can bake it too!

What happen to the flour? When do we fold it in
hi,
sorry that I forget to write out when I fold in the flour. I make a correction already. Hope you like it too.
hi,
If lined the pan with parchment paper, do I need to invert the pan immediately after out of oven?
Thks.
hi michelle,
of course you need to invert the pan immediately after out of oven to prevent shrinking. Normally, I'll line the parchment-paper(not greased paper) a bit bigger, so that my my pan can hold the paper and when I invert it, the cake will not falling down. Hope you will make it succesfully too!.
