Hello friends! Today we're super excited to share with you how to make airy and moist chiffon cake with crème chantilly(or you can call it Chiffon pound cake too).
A chiffon cake is a very classic light cake like angel food cake, it’s airy texture and also super moist and bouncy. But this chiffon cake has a different look, we use a loaf mold to bake it, so it looks like a pound cake, then pipe delicious chantilly cream inside the cake, very easy and simple, but incredibly yummy.
About the chiffon cake, the recipe is from a famous Japanese pâtissier 津田陽子 who is base in Kyoto. Her chiffon cake recipe is made with melted butter instead of vegetable oil, she created a special method to make the cake full of buttery aroma, and also very soft. If you’re a fan of chiffon cake, don’t miss this video. :)
