Neha, I have’t tried with oil. I think butter makes the cakes fluffy. But give it a try with oil and see what happens.

Sorry Anupama, I don’t understand what you are saying. You have a cooker which has grill?? and 4 burner gas stove?? And then you are asking about oven. I am confused.

Hi Shilpa,

I want to know, can i do this in microwave. If yes please suggest me what all i have to use.

Or I have a cooking range i.e., 4 burner Gas Stove. And i have never used the grill part in that cooker, since i am vegetarian. Please tell me the detail procedure as i don’t know how to heat the oven to 350F 350F for about 10mins.

Looks yummy. Going to give this a try very soon. And thanks for the caramel preparation, I make a eggless brownie with brown sugar and always wondered if I could caramelise sugar and use it instead. Brown sugar is a lot more expensive at the grocery store than white sugar.

Hi Shilpa, your eggless cake is simply mouthwatering less its vegan.
however, i need some expertise from you with regards to the baking of the mentioned recipe as i want to make this cake for a good fren of mine and also gain some insight to making eggless variations,

Q1. what is the purpose of adding the orange juice to the recipe? is it mandatory? does the orange juice induce the flavour in the cake?

Q2. what is the use of adding marmalade in the cake? is it for flavouring or to act as a thickener?

Q3. if i’d wanna add commercial caramel (bought fm stores), what is the amount required for the recipe?

Q4. if i want the cake to be chocolate flavoured, is it best to add cocoa powder or chocolate chips? if can, please tell me when can i add the chocolates to the mix?

Q5. if i wanna double the recipe as it is, any minute details in ingredients i need to consider?

i know i’m asking too much but i just wanna learn the proper way…:) thank you so much for your help on this…really appreciate it….
