I made this cake yesterday and when I made it I was so excited to cut into it I did not even frost it. So far I think this is one of the best cakes I’ve ever eaten and my family can agree with that
The look on your face in anticipation of taking the bite at the end. Priceless. Goes a long way to encourage us, your viewers, to try your excellent recipes out!
Wondering if you have thought about making a book? I know 3 people who I would buy the book for already.You are a good tutor and would be amazing to have a book with recipes like this zebra cake and white cake.Worth a thought as you excel at what you do.
@@SugarSpunRun I'm sure I will I take my time and follow every step of ur ingredients just the way u make them I tried 3 of them already and they taste sooo good
Hi Sam, thank you so much for all of your delicious recipes! I'm currently going to make your Oreo cookie cake for our potluck tomorrow. I am currently watching your Zebra cake for the next recipe to try, this looks so cool! Can you please do a video for Starbucks red velvet loaf? Thank you! 🥰
Thanks for the video.👍🏾👍🏾. It does look very tasty. Maybe because I'm watching from my phone, but the white, looks pretty white. Thanks for making us better bakers. Walk with the LORD God & enjoy life.
I would love to try this recipe for my sister birthday this weekend but where I live cannot find cake flour can u please be a sweetheart and give me the measurements for 2 3/4 cup cake flour only have all-purpose on hand
I've had many unsuccessful attempts at making zebra cake using different recipes. No matter what I do, I can't achieve a cake with two distinguished colours. I always get a brown cake even though I use a third of the batter for the chocolate part of the cake. Any tips?
Hi! Have you watched the video for this one? the key is in how you add each spoonful, keeping each color inside the ring of the other color and going slowly. I demonstrate in the video :)
Thank you! Unfortunately whole eggs will not work here. You really need to whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. I include several recipes to use up extra egg yolks in my blog post so there's no waste 😊
Cake flour is essentially all purpose flour with cornstarch (corn flour in UK) added in. You can make your own cake flour by sifting together 1 cup of all purpose flour and 2 TBSP of cornstarch. :)
Sam, is there a particular science behind the sugar flour ratio in this cake? 2 cups of sugar always makes me go 🤔 because I think the cake will be sweet.
It’s a pretty large cake. Yes it will be sweet, but it is a cake after all. I actually really only recommend using cake flour for this recipe. All purpose doesn’t give you quite the same results but it will work.
@@SugarSpunRun thank you. Sweet is ok but the sweet I mean is 'sweet sweet'. You know, cloyingly sweet so you only want to eat a small amount at a time. Thanks for responding.
@@kimtee8961 I know what you mean. I don't find it to be overly sweet personally and I use this ratio because it's what I found works best, but if you'd like you could probably reduce the sugar a little bit and it would still turn out :) If it helps give you an idea of the sweetness, Zach does not have much of a sweet tooth (how did we end up married, I have no idea 😂) and he ate an entire slice with the frosting last time I made it.
Cake looks delicious! Youbfrost like I do! Hahaa I went to feed my sourdough starter, and found 3 bugs in it! My husband looked in my LeCreuset Canister of AP flour and there were bugs crawling, lots of them. It's not full, the rest is in the freezer. I thought putting it in the freezer from the store, I was getting rid of any eggs, larvae, etc. So disappointed. I see your canisters back on your counter, what are they? I use KAF exclusively. I'm so grossed out talking about it...ewww...!!
Oh no!! That is SOOOO gross!! I got my canisters from Bed Bath and Beyond years ago. I had to add the stickers myself, but I have never had any issues with them. :)
I am so happy you ate the cake top I agree i think the top is the best part : ) i am so sad when i see people discard it
Why would anybody waste perfectly good cake?!?!?!?
That zebra cake is so cool! I like it! You make it look so easy.
It really is easy ☺️
I made this cake yesterday and when I made it I was so excited to cut into it I did not even frost it. So far I think this is one of the best cakes I’ve ever eaten and my family can agree with that
That is so awesome! I am so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
So appreciate u getting straight to the point. Great jib

Thanks so much for the video.👍🏾👍🏾 I'm glad that you remembered your stand mixer. 😁. Anyway. That looks amazing. Thanks for your Channel.
Delicious Mmmm😋👏👏👏👏👏👏
This reminds me of a friendship cake when people make their own flavored cakes and lay them on top of each other.
That's really interesting! I have never heard of that. :)
Beautiful and easy to make thank you.....
You are welcome 😊Enjoy!
Good morning 🌞 nice cake 🎂

🤩
I did the same technique for a June pride crate....❤️
Can I use self rising cake flour? And not add any extra baking powder? Great recipe by the way 😄
I would not recommend using self rising flour here. I haven't tried it, but I'm not sure how it would turn out.
Sugar Spun Run ok thank you 😊
Omg😍
I would love to try this recipe for my sister birthday this weekend but where I live cannot find cake flour can u please be a sweetheart and give me the measurements for 2 3/4 cup cake flour only have all-purpose on hand
It would be 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, but unfortunately the cake tends to sink a bit when all-purpose is used.
@@SugarSpunRun ok I andastand..can u please give me the measurements for the all purpose flour in cake flour would really appreciate it

It looks so gorgeous... 😍
Can I use whole eggs?

Thank you so much for replying
Hello lovely your cake recipes are awsome I’m from the UK so please can you tell me what is cake flour and is there any alternative that I can use
Cake flour is essentially all purpose flour with cornstarch (corn flour in UK) added in. You can make your own cake flour by sifting together 1 cup of all purpose flour and 2 TBSP of cornstarch. :)
How many hand and stand mixers do you own?
Not enough!! 🤣🤣
Couldn't use use white food coloring for a whiter color for the cake?
I suppose you could, but I don't find it necessary 😊
Hi meem
Could you do the butter and flour crumb mixture in a food processor.
Hmm I'm not sure that I would recommend it. I'm not quite sure how it would turn out.
@@SugarSpunRun thank you for your response. I have a electric beater im scraed of the flour flying all over creatung a big mess.
If you start really slowly you should be ok. 😊
@@SugarSpunRun thank you will try it and ket you know via Instagram how it turns out.
Sam, is there a particular science behind the sugar flour ratio in this cake? 2 cups of sugar always makes me go 🤔 because I think the cake will be sweet.
Also, would a cake flour substitute (the one with cornstarch) work here?
It’s a pretty large cake. Yes it will be sweet, but it is a cake after all. I actually really only recommend using cake flour for this recipe. All purpose doesn’t give you quite the same results but it will work.

@@SugarSpunRun alright, I'll take his endorsement into recommendation 😊
made these for my mom and dad and brother and they ate all of them and left me none :(.
O no!! Guess you'll need to make it again. 😉

Why didn't you just edit it as a zebra cake instead of the whole sentence?
