How to Make Christmas Cake クリスマスケーキの作り方

** Advice for Making Christmas Cake **
This is one of the most difficult recipes we introduced, so please follow the instructions thoroughly.

The measurements and whipping time for the batter is critical to make a sponge cake. If the whipping time is not accurate, the sponge cake will become flat. Using a scale to measure the ingredients is absolutely necessary.

Please turn on the English caption for the video (click CC button) and follow every single steps. It even explains how many times you need to scoop the batter with a spatula and this process is essential. The ingredient list is described below and we recommend using cake flour instead of pastry flour. Kirsch (cherry brandy) is optional.

Baking time depends on various factors like the size of round pan, type of oven you use and so on. I recommend keeping your eyes on the cake while baking. If the height of sponge cake is not enough, you might want to bake another sponge so that your Christmas cake will have 3 or 4 layers. Good luck in the kitchen! - Francis
