Cloud Cake – Light, Airy, and Melts in Your Mouth!

by

  • 4 large eggs (at room temperature)

  • 150 g fine granulated sugar

  • 200 g sifted flour

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

  • ½ packet baking powder (optional, for extra volume)

  • Pinch of salt

  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

These ingredients are common pantry staples, making this cake a great last-minute treat. The optional vanilla extract adds aroma, while the baking powder gives extra lift, though careful egg-whipping often makes it unnecessary.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare:
    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease your round cake pan and line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

  2. Separate and Whip the Eggs:
    Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. Gradually add half of the sugar and continue whipping until glossy and firm.

  3. Mix Yolks and Remaining Sugar:
    In a separate bowl, whisk the yolks with the remaining sugar until light and creamy. Add the vanilla extract if using.
