EGGLESS TUTTY FRUITY CAKE
This post is very special for me,coz this is the first cake recipe I am posting
…. My mom,MIL(also my ancestors)have never baked anything,also they don’t even know the ABCs of baking. So for me to I am just blank about baking…Last year by this time,I have not even dreamt of baking a cake
! But now I find baking very interesting and even easier than my day to day cooking 
! I too was once thinking baking is something I cant even imagine,its a very difficult thing to try…. But now I got enough confidence to even encourage someone who is scared of baking like I was once
! But I should really thank Prathiba
,for clearing all my silly doubts,regarding baking,when ever I asked her in the beginning!I took the recipe from here,with few changes I tried and was keeping my fingers crossed
until I had a bite from the cake. It was damn good! My oven is a combination oven,which has three options- Convection/Microwave/grill. Basically I use the microwave option in everyday cooking. And the convection mode for baking cakes,cookies and pizzas…still I haven't used the grill option… I don’t even have the manual for this oven,some how just learnt the basics from online and managing to bake. Please feel free to write to me or leave comments,if you have any doubts regarding baking this cake, I will try my best of my knowledge to answer you what ever I know.
Ingredients:
| All purpose flour/Maida | 1 & 1/2 cups |
| Corn flour | 3 tblsp |
| Butter | 100 gms |
| Sugar | 4 tblsp |
| Baking powder | 1 tsp |
| Baking soda/sodium bi carb. | 1/2 tsp |
| Condensed milk | 1/2 cup |
| Soda water | 1/3 cup |
| Salt | 1/4 tsp |
| Vanilla essence | 1 tsp |
| Tutty fruity | 4 tblsp |
Egg Replacer:
| Water | 2 tblsp |
| Baking powder | 1/2 tsp |
| oil | 2 tsp |
Beat well until smooth(I blended in mixer using the whip/inch option.. ,I am not sure if its the right way to do,but sure worked for me!)
Method:
- Mix well maida,corn flour,baking powder baking soda and salt well,in a large bowl.
- I sift the flour to ensure even mixing.
- Soften the butter and beat it with sugar(I used fine grain sugar) in another bowl.
- Add the egg replacer,condensed milk and vanilla to the beaten butter & sugar and beat again till smooth. ( I used a hand whisker)
- Add this to the mixed flour and mix well.
- Add the soda water and mix well.(fold well,folding-mix with a spatula/laddle in a same pattern,preferably from bottom to top always)I am not a professional baker,just now started baking,so if please ignore if there is any silly mistakes in the terms I have used in the method.
- Eventually preheat the oven to 180 degree C.
- Lastly add the tutti fruity and mix well.
- Grease a baking tray with butter/oil(I used 6 inch round tray) and pour the mix in to the tray.
- Bake for 35 minutes(keep in centre of the oven) or until the cake is done, you can check by inserting a knife,if it comes out without sticking,clean then your cake is done!
- After done,cool down in a wire rack and slice it and enjoy!

Wow Your first cake itself looks great!!
Hi raks,
I tried getting the soda water in an Indian store, but they had only the sweetened soda water, Limca.
So, can u pls tell me the brand that u bought and what is it called?...Also, are there any alternatives for the soda water?
Priya I bought a brand called Schweppes,you can see in the first step picture....sure you can find in supermarkets,try and see,ask as club soda...
This method I am not sure though,
Alternative for soda water you can try eno fruit salt(not the flavored) mixed with water,make sure u just mix it only when needed!
Love tutty fruity cakes and icecreams too. I have to add this to my wish list for India visit.
lovely cake, for a first time baker, and beautiful clicks too!!
Hello, Cake looks lovely!
I have a question..in ingredients there is corn flour..is it like flour of corn(corn meal) or corn starch(something like arrowroot). I am doubtful because in India corn starch is also sometimes called corn flour..and I have never used corn flour in cakes only corn starch at times.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Namrata,its not corn meal,its corn starch(it will be white in colour),not the yellow one..Hope this had cleared your doubt!
Thanks for replying. Was wondering what temperature should be used..will 350 F be fine?
Yes 350 F will be fine,I baked at 180 degree C... I had wrongly put 180 F its 180 C,I jus noticed,Thanks :)
Wow!!!!!Cake looking wonderful!!!
I'm amongst one of them who is scared of baking. never tried baking....
but really want to.
I'm having LG micro combi model (micro, grill & combi). Can it be used for baking? if yes, what temp. should i set for baking?
Plz reply.
Hi monsa,
My MIL has the same model as you have,but I am so sorry you cant bake this cake in that mode. only if your oven has the covec mode,you can bake...This combi mode is the combination of microwave and grill mode.
Hi Raji
Your cake is too awesome n mouth watering once we look it.In ur receipe u've mentioned egg replacer,wat is that egg replacer n also tel me wether we will be able to do in a cooker because im not having microwave oven.
Hi sudha,egg replacer is nothing but the things we add in the place of egg,people who donot eat egg can use this proportion I have mentioned in any cake recipes. I found it in another blog...And this cake cannot be done in microwave or pressure cooker...only in a microwave oven with convection mode in it,you can make it. Otherwise you can make it in an OTG. I will soon post an eggless chocolate cake which you can try steaming. So stay tuned :)
hi raji
actually i am confused about the time to be set for preheating the oven ana what time should be set after keeping the cake mixture inside te oven(my one is cornella electric oven)
pls respond
thanx
Hi , You should pre heat the oven to 180 degree C also bake at the same temperature. For any baking,preheat temperature and baking temperature is same(as far as I know)
Usually if you set the temperature and start preheating,the oven will automatically set the time and stop/ gives a beep sounds after the preheat is done. Hope this helps..
hi raji
the cake came out very well, it was my first cake
thank u very much
Hi, could you please tell your 1 tsp equals to how many ml? and similarly one tblsp to ml?
1 tsp = 5 ml,1 tblsp = 15 ml
should I bake it in high power mode or less? what was the exact power mode you used?
There is no such power setting in the convection mode,high or low power mode is only for micro wave(in my oven). Otherwise only you have to set 180 degrees in the convection mode.
hi again,
your 1 cup equals to?
240 ml
hi raks
the cake looks great.if we want to add eggs how many eggs should we add?why we need to add soda water..when we r adding baking soda?is it good to make with egg or without egg?i will try this recipe....
Hi Raks,
I'm planning to try this.Please help me whether the oven should be set to heat from all the sides?(from top,bottom,sides)??
I am so sorry. I have no idea about the oven heating process in ur model. May be I will ask my friends and get back to you...
My Oven is of SONA company.I brought it in Courts.
Hey...looks awesome... should try it sooner.....i would like to know where you got the sift. I have been hunting since long and unable to find one. Please lemme know....
I got this sift in IKEA
can i use electric hand mixer for beating
