Eggless Chocolate Cake

[bsmitharao]

can u give me a recipe for plain cookies that do not use butter and not of choco flavor

[ramya302009]

Can i use maida instead of all purpose flour?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@ramya302009 : All-Purpose Flour is Maida :)

[bsmitharao]

@ShowMeTheCurry i don't have vinegar, is it a must ingredient or can i make the cake without vinegar

[xnenaxo]

Ahh..so thankful I can still eat cake even though I'm allergic to eggs :)

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@xnenaxo : Enjoy :)

[vyasatulk]

i like your eggless cho. cake receipe.

[TheKimmyKisses]

if you guys are wondering why it is so bitter it is because of the baking soda

[nehavify]

Great recipe..!can u pls tell me where can I find whipping cream for icing...?Thanks.

[srivigal]

Hi Shetal & Anuja, I like all ur recipes!! I've tried some of them.. But this eggless chocloate cake didn't come out good :( I followed exactly what u mentioned in they video.. It tasted like raw flour.. even I tried with frosting.. it didn't taste good even then.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@srivigal : If you say you followed the recipe, the ingredients and the measurements - we are really surprised...we have made this recipe quite a few times and it was great everytime.

[FluxDeLorean]

@srivigal

LOL! SHETAL! bahaha

[Maryam31M]

ok thank you so much for replying to my message

[bonnnti]

and how many calories ,please?

[Maryam31M]

I like this cake but can we do this cake without any vinegar just use only the rest of the ingredients :)

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@Maryam31M : The cake needs a sour agent for the baking soda to activate. You can leave the vinegar out and add Baking Powder instead. You will have to add 1.5 tsp of it and/or you can also use an egg.

[mitbhangable]

hiiiifrst of all thanx 4 the wondrful recipie

.i tried ur recipie.i thought of makin a simple vanilla cake, so i did not add cocoa powder...nd although cake was very soft , but it was very bitter in taste....!!is this recipie is only for choclate cake n not for simple vanilla sponge cake??

please reply asap.

[MrsConarth]

Without eggs, then me can lick the bowl and spoon afterwards :D

[duyus]

i dont understand y the cake came out so bitter .. it was not burnt or something..

[pinkyhead100]

i have the ingredinets!yum !thx!

[XxLilcindzxX]

i did exactly what the video says, but how comes the cake was bitter ? :(

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@XxLilcindzxX : Did you use the right amount of chocolate powder? Or the other thing we can think of is that it may have got burnt :(

[YukiCrossist]

Itserves what number of people? Good cake! I plan to make this for a birthday party!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@YukiCrossist : It will make approximately about 12 pcs. 

[ImAnAlienxD]

can we use any vinegar? and if we use Lemon juice instead does it perform the same? and how much lemon juice? thanks

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@ImAnAlienxD : You have to use white vinegar. We personally have not substituted the vinegar with the Lime Juice but some of our viewers did and they said it worked.

[ImAnAlienxD]

@ShowMeTheCurry :Thank you! I'll try and make it very soon! xx

[hello123321hello1]

Can I use Baking Powder instead of baking soda?????

[sherleneyeo]

is 1.5cups of flour equal to 200g, 1 cup of sugar equal to 200g and 1 cup of cold water equal to 200cc, please help!!

[BlackSkullz09]

@sherleneyeo just google "how many grams are in a cup"

[meenu1ish]

good one

[3V655B1]

By oil wat kind of oil do I use?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@3V655B1 : We use Canola Oil for majority of our cooking.

[sherleneyeo]

can you convert your recipe to grams instead of cups

[harmenrocks]

IT WONT LOAD!

[CherrYKoki]

what if i don't have baking soda .. is there any replacement ?

and can i replace vanilla extract with vanilla powder ? .. thanks

[thefunnydinners]

@CherrYKoki unfortunatey there are no replacements foe baking soda but no need for vanilla extracts

[MrGuruJi8]

Awesome recipe, I going to try to make it.

[EkAks]

what's that vinegar for in the recipe?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@EkAks

It activates the baking soda.

[rajivkrishnatr]

So lovely! I loved the recepie!

Can you tell me how would I be able to bake it in a pressure cooker? Because I don't have an oven...It would be really helpful.

Thank you.

[kjoshi93]

Hey! thank u for ur recipe ! lol... it fell apart when i tryed to turn it over! lol! oh well! a working progress!!! thanks =D

[SowjanyaNaganand]

can we add butter in place of oil?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@SowjanyaNaganand

When baking, the recipe must be followed exactly. Although butter can be used, since the moisture level is different in both, the quantities may change.

[rad1406]

Hi hetal, I tried tis recipe 2 day and it was perfect.... It was awesome...we enjoyed it....

[0610ankur]

hiiiii...i tried this recipe nd it was really good.....i make it in a pressure cooker....nd i luv it....can u pls show some more recipes of eggless nd without condensed milk cake ?????THANK U ND LUV UR RECIPES

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@0610ankur : We will make a note of the request and add some more to our list :)

Thanks for your feedback!

[0610ankur]

@ShowMeTheCurry THANKSSS FOR A QUICK REPLYYYY LUVV UR RECIPESSSS

[mini020107]

hi hetal i just tried that cake turn out perfect i want plain vanilla cake so i didnot add coco powder but its is a big hit

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@mini020107 : Thanks for letting us know, we are sure that will be useful information for other viewers as well.

[saurabhgrover2715]

i use baking pwdr as well as soda-bi-carb. in my cake recipes... that means soda bi carb is nt necessary if we r using b.pwdr.??

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@saurabhgrover2715 : If you do a search on our website, we have a video and explain the difference between Baking Soda and Baking Powder - it is a great video and explains everything.

In this case, you are using Baking Soda (which is also a main ingredient in Baking Powder) and there is a souring agent (vinegar) in the recipe- which is a must to activate the Baking Soda. If there was no sour ingredient (yogurts, lime, vinegar) in the recipe, we'd have to use the Baking Powder.

Hope that helps :)

[saurabhgrover2715]

thank u so much :-)

[saurabhgrover2715]

CAN WE USE THE BLENDER ?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@saurabhgrover2715

Blender are not good for mixing cake batter. You can use a hand blender or whisk by hand.

[saurabhgrover2715]

IS THIS BAKING POWDER OR SODA-BI-CARB.??

REPLY QUICKLY PLS

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@saurabhgrover2715

Baking powder has soda bi carb plus other important ingredients.

[Raees02]

thanks so much for this recipe, tried it as a substitute for my regular cake and no one knew the different.....thanks again

[avanigajjar]

can we add butter to make it very soft cake?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

[309339]

Is white vinegar is same as that of normal vinegar?

[abietiger]

why the vinegar?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@abietiger

It provides the acid for the baking soda to react.

[avanigajjar]

@ShowMeTheCurry can we add butter to make it very soft moist cake?

[amiastonishing]

hey 30 mins at wat temp/?pls mention that 180 200 wat temp

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@amiastonishing

350 degrees F

[stafylides]

@ShowMeTheCurry what temp is 350 dwgree F in centrigrade, pls???

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@stafylides

Approximately 180C.

[stafylides]

@ShowMeTheCurry Thank you for your reply. Also, one last question, instead of white vinegar , can I use the normal one, or will the taste be more acid?

[harrowrudeboy]

added some crushed cardomom (elchi) and it was BEAUTIFUL!! For me, cardomom and chocolate are the ultimate combination!

i know this is an old vid but you guys are great!

[rhindoliya]

i like this vedio

[hasmukhlovescricket]

can u temme d microwave procedure? pls help

[deepakshrma]

@BlackSkullz09 thank you, but there are millions of housewives who doesnot know the conversion from f to c, it becomes more difficult when the microwave shows only c on display..

[deepakshrma]

Hi Great recipe.. but when you say keep it for 30 minutes at 350 degree, please do mention C or F....?

Thanks

[BlackSkullz09]

@deepakshrma ITS F

[msbored28]

i tried this with all enthu, but turned out bad! it was lil sticky from inside and the top had bcome too hard!!

[harrowrudeboy]

@msbored28 lower the temp 10%

[SuperPurpleBaluga]

can i grade extra dark chocolate instead of coco powder cuz i dont have any and i cant go to the store right now?!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@SuperPurpleBaluga : Yes, you can!

[deepakshrma]

Hi Great recipe.. but when you say keep it for 30 minutes at 350 degree, please do mention C or F....?

Thanks

[tejo29se]

I have a problem with the water, it makes my cake heavy as if it wasn't baked but more like a dried cake. I seem to not have the vegan touch.

[ninjatot]

Hello @ShowMeTheCurry,

Can I replace the vinegar with lemon juice? Or do you have any other suggestions that can replace the vinegar? (because I'm not really sure if lemon will compliment with chocolate) Thanks in advance.

This cake is perfect for my mom, since she's allergic to eggs, and I want to make a chocolate cake for her. Thanks for making this and I love the way it turned out when you removed it from the pan. The texture looked flawless.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@ninjatot : You should be able to use Lemon Juice instead of the vinegar but we have personally never tried it....

[ninjatot]

@ShowMeTheCurry okay. there's no harm in trying :) thanks for the reply and for the recipe!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@ShowMeTheCurry : Good Luck and let us know the results :)

[Tzipporah36]

I am not sure what all the fuss is about.

[smellsogoody]

I think I'm going to go for Bob's Red Mills baking soda,Now Foods Sweeteners,organic baking etc..They are great and healthy products.You can find this stuff at iherb.com and they are giving new customers $5 off any order with ongoing coupon code TAW742 (valid for one person per household)

[Pavitsimi]

the spray you put on can we use oil instead ? i need this message written back by today, and only show me the curry should replay, pls , pls ,pls ,pls pls

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@Pavitsimi : Yes, you can use regular oil or butter to grease the cake pan.

[KeropiiX]

@ShowMeTheCurry Can you use parchment paper???

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@KeropiiX : Yup, you can!

[kelliferrr]

Can I use this recipe without the Coco powder?

[zairt]

@kelliferrr yes give it a try and tell me how crap it turns out to be..lol

[sharmaranjana30]

@kelliferrr I tried this cake so many times with different ingredients. It came out great every time. Only thing you need to know what consistency you want. I really never used measured ingredients. I've actually used cinamon. It's a flavor too. You can try it. Cocoa is used to make it a chocolate one. It also has a great relation with Vinegar & Baking soda.

[zaradbest]

can v use milk instead of water??????plz sugest

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@zaradbest : We have never tried it but in theory it should be OK.

[TheShrutibhatnagar]

Can we spread some butter before putting mixture in pan. if we dont have olive oil.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@TheShrutibhatnagar : Yes, you can.

[OcelotAkhiyan1]

if i am making it in the microwave then what time should i take it out?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@OcelotAkhiyan1 : Unfortunately, we have never made it in the microwave - so sorry, we are no help in that respect :(

[TheCraphater]

@OcelotAkhiyan1 umm ihi i always bake ma cakes in a microwave as i dnt have an oven....i preheat d micro to 240...den i bake it on convection mode for arnd 20 min....n lets it sit in d micro for 10 min....d cakes cum out perfect.hope i helped:)

[M4037331]

so good..i really want to make this cake for my mom birthday because he cant eat eggs...thanks so much for ur help....i just have one question, if i want to fost it...what kind of frosting do u think is goof for birthday cakes on this cake???? PLZ DO REPLY.....

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@M4037331 : Plain icing sugar sprinkled over the top would be excellent.

[HannurRanda]

More like a brownie :)

[onlyme179]

i have tried making eggless cakes before and using condensed milk helps keep the cake moist ! just a tip for ppl who like eggless cake and another thing u can do to have moist cake is brush the cake with sugar syrup, which consists of boiling water and adding sugar and stirring till the sugar is dissolved.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@onlyme179

Thanks for your suggestions!

[jgindia]

u two are such a darlings....my wife always says that u two are her best friends..she learnt so much about cooking by looking at ur videos....we made the cake it was awesome...thanks a lot nd looking forward to see many more recipe's from u....

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@jgindia

aawww! That's so sweet. Glad you guys are enjoying our show! Thanks for the support.

[SyBunnyPretty]

thank u so much.. i am still learning how to bake and this one is totally good for beginners like me

[giyeonjang]

what if you don't have salted butter only not unsalted butter would that make a difference in a cake taste?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@giyeonjang

This recipe does not require any butter. However, most cake recipes use salt so depending on whether you have salted or unsalted butter, you can adjust the amount of salt in the recipe.

[ummsherif4]

very good recipe i really like it and light thanx girls

[xia0fan]

can somebody please convert all the ingredients amount from 'cups' to grams'?

i cant seem to get them in right proportions.

please....

[Hyppiebabie]

@xia0fan 340 gram of all purpose of flours 226 grams of sugar 42 grams of unsweetened cocoa powder 70 grams of oil 5 grams of baking soda 2 grams of salt 5 grams of vanilla extract 14 grams of white vinegar 226 grams of cold water

[concerty2k]

very good and easy, but if I have to make it with eggs, when should it be chucked in with what precaution! thanx.

[jayasrivenkatesh]

hi.....thanks a lot...i made d chocolate cake using this vedio...it's very tasty and spoonge. Measurement which u gave us ,is also good....thank u.....

[jayasrivenkatesh]

hi.....thanks a lot...i made d chocolate cake using this vedio...it's very tasty and spoonge. Measurement which u gave us ,is also good....thank u.....

[CherrYKoki]

i want to ask why do we use baking soda in cake ..

and second question : i baked a cake( not eggless) and it wasn't smooth when i ate it .. is it because i didn't mix the ingredients well

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@CherrYKoki : Baking Soda is to give the cake the bounce and the spongy texture that we usually get from eggs and since this is an egg less cake, the baking soda helps :)

Well, cakes do have texture and as long as yours was even texture, you are good.

[xXManpriaXx]

@CherrYKoki Hey Did You sift the flour ? that is 1 of the most common things to go wrong .Xx

[kushlanim]

Hi both of you,

Thank you for Ur reply on my 'what oils to use' question.

I want to let all of you know that I had to use Olive Oil since I couldn't find Canola Oil in Sri Lanka. I must say the cake came out very well, and every one including my husband loved it. I made this cake twice now & it was gone even before I could apply icing. Actually its good just as it is :) Just one small thing Hetal & Anuja, I used chilled Sodawater instead of Coldwater.. I don't know if it makes a big difference?

[UltimateRajput]

Awesome recipe very simple, definitely have to try this one !

@ ShowMeTheCurry: Thanks for the video !

[dhanedhar]

hey do you guys know how to cook cake in a pressuse cooker

if you know then please tell us

or me

[anshumee1]

do you have the recipe for eggless cupcakes?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@anshumee1

You can use the same batter and fill cupcake cups. Baking time may be less.

[catnandez]

this cake is perfect for my my little couisin who can't eat eggs

[agarwalsndp]

This cake is awesome, it came out perfect in first try. I used lemon instead of vinegar.

[ImAnAlienxD]

@agarwalsndp How much lemon juice did you use please??x

[joyandwisdom]

Thanks for the recipe. As someone mentioned, I noticed some eggless cake recipes use soda such as coke. Your thoughts on that ? I am worried about the excess sugar and the fact that its soda.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@joyandwisdom

We have not tried using soda for cakes so cannot give you an accurate answer. If you are worried about sugar, you can always reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe and compensate it with the sugar in the soda.

[kushlanim]

Hi,

I would like to know what oil you use ? Can I use Olive oil ?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@kushlanimWe use Canola Oil for most

of our cooking and Olive Oil for Italian cooking.

In this case Canola. Olive Oil tends to have a

sharp taste that may take away from the taste of the cake.

Having said that, we personally have never tried it

Let us know if you do.

[kushlanim]

Thank you.

[p2r4a8z90]

i made d cake but it was sticky wil ne1 tell me y?

[karmaa88]

after making cake, should we keep it in freezer or just anywhere in refrigerator?? response will be appreciated... :)

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Refrigerator is good as long as you consume it within 7-10 days.

[lezbriddon]

agh whats a cup! I'm a man i need technical measurements so that i can ignore them and approximate my way to failure!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Exactly! That is why we did not go into details...j/k!

1 cup is the volume measure of an 8 oz measure :)

[srisaisan]

I didn't see you adding condensed milk....

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Apologies...the sweetness comes from the sugar (not condensed milk)!

[mermaidstar7]

looks very flat

[Lemonzs]

there is no sweetness added for this recipe??

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Apologies...the sweetness comes from the sugar (not condensed milk)!

[smitishhanchinal]

Hi, This cake really looks very yummy.Pls do let me know can we bake the same in Microwave?

[sateja1]

this recipe is very nice indeed. it will be great if you add some cold soda water instead of just plain cold water. The cake becomes more fluffy :-)

[sateja1]

Do you think one can use lemon instead of vinegar?

[raji852]

Hi Hetal and Anuja,

I have a question, can I use the regular chocolate drink powder instead of cocoa powder to make the cake? I don't find the powder in my nearest grocery store and that limits me in making the make whenever I want.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Chocolate drinking powder is cocoa plus a few other thingswhereas Cocoa Powder is more intense. Having said that, you can substitute but the cake may not have that dark color and that intense chocolate flavor. Give it a shot, we don't think you have anything to loose!

[payish]

what is the role of white vinegar in this recipe?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

It serves as the acid agent to activate the baking soda, which makes the cake rise without the use of eggs.

[chopkrt]

lovely...i can't wait to try this....u guys make everything seem so simple and easy ...

[pRpLeandYeLLoftwxD]

Yeah, I want to know the same thing. Do you have a recipe for eggless vanilla cake? Thank you xP

[ShowMeTheCurry]

We do not have one at this point but do have it on our list.

[sharmzee]

How can I make an Eggless Vanilla Cake? Do u have a recipe for that?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

We do not have one at this point but do have it on our list.

[richaaguptaa1]

hi,

i tried ur recipe.

it turned out great, everyone loved it.

I would also like to ask, i used a soft drink, coke instead of water.heard its fluffier.

thanks!! never missed the eggs!!!

[jshreekrishnan]

Hi, I am from India and I have bought all the ingredients as per your recipe, but just noticed that i bought baking powder insteand of baking soda. Can you advice me on how i can bake the same cake using baking power. Please help me out!

[986022]

@jshreekrishnan you need baking soda nothing else will help it rise.

[yoor]

thanks for your quick response!

[yoor]

hi can we use baking powder instead of bakin soda?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Baking powder and baking soda are a little different. Baking powder has added ingredients that may alter the taste and texture of this cake.

[sukhvirgill765]

im not american

so../.

can u pleez tell how much a cup is in (ml)s

(milliletres)

[ShowMeTheCurry]

240 ml = 1 cup

30 ml = 1 fluid oz.

1 cup = 8 fluid oz.
