You put out such a well planned and produced video...no crazy music or distractions...just you teaching us how to get it right! I deeply appreciate it! I did subscribe...
My pleasure... I have been teaching cake stuff for over 25 years. Hope it helps!
Oh my!! This looks fantastic Edna. You KNOW I am going to make this recipe this week!! Thank you so much for being so generous in sharing your recipes!
It's a great recipe!!! Hope you enjoy!!!
Thank you so much
I do love this so much
I made this cake for a birthday cake, I added pineapple flavor, pineapple filling and it was a total hit. Everyone loved it. Thank you for sharing this awesome recipe 😊
I love pineapple filling. Is one of my favorite recipes. Glad you liked it!
Absolute perfection!!! I have tried so many recipes looking for a moist delicious white cake with no luck. Then one day your sweet video came across my feed and now my search is over! I baked this cake yesterday and wrapped it as suggested in plastic overnight. The texture is moist and light with that bakery soft texture. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. You have made this home baker so happy 😃
I am so glad you enjoy it!!! Thanks!
very helpful and informative, thank you. I look at cooking recipes a lot. You're the first person I recall who explained why it's important to begin with the dry ingredients and then the wet. thank you for explaining. best regards.
Sometimes knowing the science behind things help us understand and do things the right way. Baking is a science! Thanks for the complements!
Thank you Thank you Thank you for sharing this beautiful recipe. I ve been searching for such a beautiful base cake with a beautiful crumb ever since i started baking. Also, your explanation of the "tunneling" and how to avoid it is another golden baking trick. THANK YOU. BLESS YOU.
Thank you!!
A lot of times I'm looking for tips on how to bake better cakes. Although I do put parchment paper on the bottom of my cake pans, I hadn't come across the tip that says to line the entire cake pan. So I think that was a great tip. Thank you.
This is the best white cake recipe I have ever seen. I will have to try it.
well?
This is one of the best tutorials on white cake that I have ever seen.
I am going to try it out, because besides chocolate cake, I grew up loving white cakes from our bakery.
It closed down 40 years ago and I have been looking for a white cake recipe as good as those since then.
I think this one may be just the right one.
You are excellent at giving lessons, and your cake s are wonderful. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
This is my to go recipe. My favorite filling with it is raspberry!
Hello Edna De la Cruz thank you for your wonderful tutorials ..do you have a recipe for the filling? Qdtb!!
I will post that soon. I need to film and edit it!
Did you make it?
Edna De la Cruz, I want to thank you for this wonderful recipe this is the best cake I ever had made it this weekend for my daughter's baby shower and everyone went crazy over it.🍰😊😍
I am glad you enjoy it. It truly is a great recipe!
I’ve made one and it was came out beautifully, everyone loved it. Thanks for this great recipe 😘
My pleasure!
You have never steered me wrong. I absolutely appreciate your tutorials!
Thanks!
thank you so much Edna for adding the copy/downloadable recipe
I will try to add the printed pages as I can!
Thank you Edna for the white cake recipe. I'm sure I'll be using this recipe in the near future for my Hubby's 66th Birthday just in a few weeks. He loves white cake. Love all your tutorials!!
I love this recipe. Hope you enjoy too!
I luv a thick layer of frosting on a cake. Great job 👍👍👍 TFS
Thank you for the Specific Instructions this help me to make my cakes turn out better , I was wondering why my cake comes out so dry and hard. . Baking is truly a science
Make sure you are not overbaking your cakes. That can harden them and make them dry. Is this happening to all of your cakes?
@@EdnaDelacruz yes it is . . I thought it might be the oven .the cake r more done on one side
Thank you!
This is an excellent tutorial on white cakes. All of the details were amazing! I never knew many of your tips but now I do.
Cannot wait to try this recipe out.
It's a great recipe. White cakes are super delicate and tend to be dry but this ones is very moist. Hope you enjoy!
Thanks for your video. I have taken courses and looked at dozens of tutorials. Your video for this cake is the most detailed lesson on RUclips. You leave out nothing. I am going to try your recipe because I want to see how the cake will taste. If I flop this cake, then I am surely losing it. I haven't done icing, etc., for years, but I want to do some special cakes again. Is it 4 cakes or you sliced the cakes? Thanks
I hope it helps. I haven't had a complaint about it. Always make sure you are using the proper ingredients and your oven is working properly. Same with using the right measuring tools.
I am so happy I came across your channel, you are very detailed and you make baking and cake decorating seem very simple. Thank you!!!
Thank you!
I will try this recipe. I have been looking for a good, moist, white cake recipe. I enjoyed the tutorial.
Glad you liked!
The cake is so good, so moist, I really loved, thank you so much !!!!
I am glad you enjoyed! Yes is really good :)
Wow, this looks amazing and your instructions are perfect! I see specks of vanilla bean in the finished cake. I've been told to use clear vanilla in a white cake to keep it white. Can I use the vanilla bean paste without it ruining the white color? Thanks in advance!
Yes you can!
I made this cake last week. It was fantastic! Thank you Edna 🙏
I am glad you liked it!
John Harty did her recipe make 4 rounds or just 2?
Mia Harrison I made two rounds and cut them in half. Put the cake in the freezer or fridge to chill before cutting.
Mia Harrison one other thing, I had 10” cake pans so I had to double the recipe.
@@jenjohnson-wagner6556 I do two pans of 8x3 inches.
Hi Ms. Edna! Beautiful, You and Acorn Bakes are hands down the best cakers on RUclips!
Aww..thank you!
Hi,
1)Can the white cake recipe be used for cupcakes without changing anything. If not do you have a white cake that taste just as good for cupcakes?
2) how do you double or triple this recipe. Do you just 2× or 3× each ingredient or do you have to change the whole recipe
Thank you
I don't use this for cupcakes since it tends to shrink. I don't have a white cake recipe for cupcakes but I need to create one. You can double the recipe but make sure it fits in your mixer.
@@EdnaDelacruz Thank you so much!
Well explained! I might make it👍 THANKS for SHARING!!!
Hola Edna!! Gracias por compartir tus recetas y tu conocimiento. Para este cake, se puede duplicar la receta o es mejor hacerlo según indica la receta?
Se puede duplicar si tienes un mixer grande. Por lo regular yo no duplico. Asi puedo controlar mejor.
Hi Edna, hope all is well? I love this cake and I love that you beat the egg whites and then fold them in like a genioise cake. This is why a white cake is delicate and moist. I just made a white cake two weeks ago. Love your cake and thanks for sharing! :)
That is my favorite way to do cakes!! Thanks!
Definitely going to try!! Thanks for sharing!
Saludos desde California Sur, Me Encantaron tus recetas, ya hornee el white cake, banana y Chocolate stout cake. Me encantaron, soy tu fan, Espero no dejes de subir mas recetas. Muchas Gracias.
Quiero filmar otra receta d chocolate que uso mucho. Hopefully I can film it this week!
Thank you for sharing your recipes and cake decorating! Good tutorial videos! I love to bake!
Enjoy!!!
Thank you for the definition of a true white cake
OMG! thanks for explaining everything so good. I will have to try this.
Great tips, Edna!!! Thank you!!!
So glad she's wearing gloves while handling food....she's a true professional!!!! Beautiful cake!
I do like to wear gloves for client's cakes. I did my last video without them but the cake was for me..lol
He visto varios videos tuyos y me encantan.,Dios bendiga ese gran talento que tienes.ya me suscribi Desde mi Puerto Rico con Amor...
Gracias!
i have heard that tapping the cake causes the base to crack after baking...is it true?!
thank you...hoping for a reply:-)
Me recuerda a la receta boricua que yo hago, gracias por compartir tus recetas corazón , lo voy a intentar. Eres una mostra en esto hahah 😉🤗
Mi receta de bizcocho boricua usa las yemas tambien. :)
Edna De la Cruz siiiiii la Mia igual :)
lol que bien, entonces tenemos la receta correcta!
Hi Edna, can I make a chocolate version for this recipe? If so, can I add melted chocolate or cocoa powder and how much. Thank you 😊
I haven't made this into a chocolate recipe. I know you can easily make a marble cake with it. I have a great chocolate recipe posted in my website.
@@EdnaDelacruz can you pls tell me how you did the marble cake? 😊
Know I want this cake, I will make this, today.....
Good luck with it! I have never test it this one in high altitude. Hope it works for you.
Hi Edna, I recently discovered That adding butter flavor extract will boost and enhance the taste, what do you think? I tried it and it definitely brings out a more buttery flavor, and is there an extract that you would recommend without preservatives?
Yes, you can add it if you like buttery flavor. Usually White Cake is not meant to be a buttery cake but you can change the extracts as you want. You can also add some almond to it and it's delicious too!
Excellent, thorough instructions! Thanks!
My pleasure!
This looks delicious! Just try soon. Your cream and filling looks yummy too. Could you please share recipes?
I will make a tutorial as soon as I can film it but I make my own strawberry jam and mix it with stabilized whipped cream
Wonderful tutorial as always. Thank you Edna ☺
Thanks!!
Excelente pastel!!! Saludos cordiales desde Venezuela.
Saludos desde FL!
Hi Edna! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe...it's exactly what I've been looking for. I have 2 questions though. 1. I'm wondering if I can make this cake with mini chocolate chips in the batter? I don't think it will mess up the texture (moist vs. dry) but wanted to double check with you. 2. This would be for my mom's birthday so I'd love to make a super easy gum paste flower for the center. What supplies do I need (this is my first gum paste design ever) and what flower is the easiest? You're so talented...so happy I found you on here; I'm hooked!
I don't think it should mess up the texture. As far as flowers, the calla lilies are super basic. I Have a tutorial on them. I also have a tutorial on roses made with circle cutters if you want to play with that and I have DVD's on more advanced ways of making them fast and pretty.
wow! Edna ur the best!!! thank you for your recipe
Anytime!
Thank You for sharing ❤️
Hi Edna. Thanks for the great tutorials. Do you have this recipe in actual measurement quantities preferably metric?.
I do have the recipe posted on my website. Link it's posted under the video. I don't have it in metrics so I need to sit down and work on that.
Loved this video. Your teaching skills are very good. One question, what’s the purpose of adding sugar to the egg whites?
It breaks the egg whites. If you don't add the sugar, the egg whites might not break fully and you might find areas in the cake with white spots or holes.
Hi Edna I recently found you and I’m so glad I did, thank you for all the tutorials. My question is...can I use unsalted butter and add salt?
yes you can, I don't typically add more salt if I don't have the salted butter than what I ask on the recipe, but I do prefer the salted one. It works with the unsalted also.
Muchas gracias por responder tan rapido.
My pleasure!
I usually don’t like videos when they give tips Nd explain steps but dis one kinda good 😌
Thanks
Hello! Made this cake and it turned out great!
Making it again next week for a wedding, how long is the cake good for in the fridge? Does it freeze well? I’m try to make it two days before the wedding, do you think it will retain the moisture or should I use syrup in between the layers?
Thank you!!!!
I usually seal it well with plastic wrap and then place it in the refrigerator. The cake is naturally moist but if you want it even more moist you can add syrup.
This looks and sounds amazing! I'm guessing that pretty delicate pink frosting in the middle is raspberry? Will you be sharing that recipe as well? Thank you so much for sharing your skills and knowledge.
I usually use raspberry but that one is strawberry. And yes, I will share that as soon as I film and edit it.!
Thanks for the great recipe:)
Love your accent!! 😘😘
Thank you!
Yes baking is a science. And you need accurate measurements. Which is why you should weigh your ingredients rather than use by volume.
I do agree but with that said I will also add that measurements in cups work well when done correctly and with the right tools. I've been working in this business for over 25 years and used both methods. Most Americans are used to working with cups more than weighing. Maybe that will start changing but it still used a lot.

Edna De la Cruz can I use egg whites in a carton instead of having to separate the egg whites from yolks ???
Edna De la Cruz I
I cannot find your recipe?
Hi
@@victoriazulu4581 hi
Hi Edna, Could you tell me how many cups of batter is in the Moist white cake recipe? It sounds delicious. Your are truly a gifted artist. I enjoy viewing your tutorials. Anna
I have no idea. I don't usually measure my batter in cups. I know some people do but I have never done that. Thanks for the complements!
Muchas gracias por su compartir y consejos. Me agrada que sea humedo pues aca en Rhode Island a mis amistades no lles gussta mojadito.
Si, yo tengo mucha gente que le encanta mojadito pero hay gente americana que lo prefiere sin syrup!
Gracias por su tiempo en contestar. Dios la bendiga y multiplique sus dones
thanks for sharing. I'll be trying your recipe.
Hope you enjoy!
Hola Edna, thanks for the video. Once done baking cakes, do you let them cool in the pan at all, before removing from the pans? Or do you immediately after they come out of the oven while cakes are still really hot, do you place them in plastic paper?
I let them cool in the pan around 15 to 20 minutes and then take them out and seal them in some plastic wrap and place them in the fridge.
OK.. Thanks Edna for replying...
Great video thank you so much. Can I use this recipe for a cupcakes?
I tried this recipe and thought it turned out great and soft UNTIL I frosted the cake and placed in the refrigerator. I got the cake out for trying it out and it had gone so tough! Not sure what went wrong ....
That's the whole idea to place in the fridge well covered so it hardens and it makes it easy to frost. Once it comes to room temperature it will be soft again.
@@EdnaDelacruz But bakery baked frosted birthday cakes keep soft all the time even if they are placed in the fridge for 2 days. How do they do it?
@@kamranki Some bakeries use oil in their cakes and the oil doesn't harden as much as butter does. I worked for many years making cakes and I worked on a custom cake shop also. We usually recommend to bring the cake to room temperature because the cold cake won't be as flavorful as a cake that is at room temperature.
@@EdnaDelacruz So much oil do I need to use in your recipe? Equal quantity to butter?
@@kamranki I don't do that exchange in my recipe since the recipe works really well. It would be best to find a recipe that uses oil instead. I would have to try and test before doing that suggestion.
Hola edna, puedo usar esta receta para tortas de fondant ? Gracias antemano 🙂
i been doing at home cakes trying to practice for my kids parties in august and sept. i just wanted to know the difference in the butter. does salted make a difference in the cake ? if so what is the difference? or is unsalted better? if so why?
It really depends on the recipe you are using. A lot of people like using unsalted butter. I like to use salted because I think the extra salt does make the cake taste better. But before you go and change a recipe, make sure you are not overdoing the salt. I make sure the flavor is good. Many years ago when I started doing cakes, I used to use margarine for my cakes. Margarine has salt in it. When I decided to change to real butter, I was not a fan of the decrease of flavors in my cakes. I figured out it was the fact that I change to real butter. I was using unsalted so I decided to use salted and by doing that, it helped bring back the flavor I liked in my cakes. I guess is a matter of what your tastebuds like. The only way for you to know is to test it yourself and see if you like it. If you do so, remember that you will need to do a test first to find out if you have to play with the salt to increase or decrease it or if you just rather stay with the unsalted butter. In my recipes, I adjust things all the time.
May I ask what ,India
May I ask what kind of plastic wrap you use? And does it come in different sizes? I like that you could just lay it down and wrap over it in one easy step. I I used to cling wrap but it's so difficult to get it around the larger cakes without lifting over and over to wrap it around it.
I know what you mean. I love the press and seal from Glad. I usually lay the plastic in a cross shape on the plate
I am using to turn the cake and that way I don't have to lift the cake at all!
Edna De la Cruz aaaahhh... Bueno gracias. Y estoy muy, pero muy orgullosa que una Latina tiene un canal como usted! Keep up the amazing work!
Gracias!
Hi Edna, This looks delicious. I'm curious about the filling. How did you make it? Did you just add chopped up strawberries to your buttercream recipe? Which icing do you prefer with this cake - swiss meringue, cream cheese.....? This cake looks scrumptious!
The recipe for the buttercream is an Italian Meringue. Its not meant for underneath fondant and it has it's tricks. I need to do a tutorial on it but I need to film that. The filling on this one I made with homemade strawberry jam. I use a stabilized whipped cream but you can use swiss or italian buttercream too. I prefer to use the first because I don't like too much butter flavor. I will share too how I made the filling but I need to film and edit that too!.
Thanks for your response, Edna. I agree that using stabilized whipped cream for the filling is the way to go. Adding strawberries to it sounds absolutely delicious. Thanks again for all of your wonderful videos.
I used here in Florida a non dairy stabilized whipped cream. I can eat dairy but it actually holds great outside the fridge.
Edna De la Cruz ...did you make the video for the filling? How much do you put in between the layers??? Pls!
Edna, I knew the instant you spoke you have to be Puerto Rican! Is this the type of cake they serve at weddings with the pineapple filling? My friend and I have been looking for that cake flavor everywhere. We call it the wedding cake. 😘
Your work is always beautiful
Thank you!
Can you use buttermilk instead of while milk..? If so do you then add Baking soda & baking powder...? Thanks
Hi Edna, I made this cake and I loved it. It tasted great. The problem I have is that the cake fell to half the size. I don't know what I did wrong.
It shrinks some but I have never had it shrink to half it's size. Try baking it with Parchment paper to see if it helps. Make sure to cook in 325.
Thank you. I will try that.
Oh my!....I realized my mistake. I used a cup and a half of butter instead of a stick and a half. I read it wrong. Now it's perfect :)
Awesome!
Edna De la Cruz I make it and it was so good everyone likes it I like ur recipes u r a great chef I like u😍😍
Do you have a video on that filling? It looks delicious!!!
Check the Non-dairy Whipped Cream Video.. I use that and add strawberry jam to it!
Hello Edna! Thanks for the video, it's been a little.
You welcome!
Thank you so much for sharing .. Such a great step by step tutorial easy to follow. I do have a question; can this recipe be doubled
Can I double this recipe. I am going to make my daughter’s wedding cake. She wants a white cake and this is the recipe I have tested and really like the flavor of this cake. I have to make many batches for the cake pans and if possible I would like to make double batches
You can double if you have a mixer that is able to handle the amount of batter. When I bake at home I prefer to do separate batches for quality control.
@@EdnaDelacruz I was able to double everything but the meringue. I am blessed with 2 large stand mixers that can handle the heavy loads. The meringue was done in two batches and I folded one batch into the batter while the second was mixing. Thank you so much for the video and the recipe. My daughter is getting married on Sunday and for some reason she thinks mom can do anything including her wedding cake and the flowers for the wedding. Once this is over I will take a vacation from the craziness of the past month
@@Mindy56743 Awesome. Wishing the best at her Wedding!
Thank you Edna, for this detailed recipe. Do you think this would be good for cupcakes?
It's not great for cupcakes. It shrinks a bit so it's not the best for them.
Hi you can add dash of violet food color to make whiter
Hi! I love this recipe and i use it all the time. I had a question for you! What is the longest you have made a cake in advance (pre frosting and decorating). I sometimes i need to bake the cake rounds a few days in advance, but not sure how much in advance is too much? Thank you!
Usually 5 days. As long as you seal it really well you can store it in the refrigerator for 5 days and in the freezer for a longer period.
Edna De la Cruz thank you! That was a fast reply! ❤️
@@emmanuelventura2044 You welcome... I was checking notifications..lol
I love your cakes girl!! Keep it up!!😊😎
Thanks you!
👍👍👍Excellent thank you sheef i liak your work
Hi can l am one of your subscribers do you put your simple syrup on your cake when you take it out of your refrigerator
You cut it then be put sympl syrup
Some people put the simple syrup before the cake cools down completely. I tend to let the cake cool down so I can torte it and then I place the syrup. I do let the cake rest overnight in the fridge so the simple syrup has time to settle around the cake.
Hello , Edna. The pan with water, do you add it when you put your cake in the oven, or while the oven is preheating? Thank you
I add it while the oven is pre-heating
Edna De la Cruz thank you
Hi, this is JP from Miami. I was wondering if you know ck hi ratio shortening I cannot find the same brand you were talking about on your video the recommend something else
I have used Ck high ratio and it works well.
Thank you Edna. Do you remove the brown skin of the cake before you crumb coat it.?
In my oven I don't usually get it on this cake. Sometimes on butter cakes it happens depending on the pan size I use. But yes, if it gets too dark, it's probably dry and I cut it off.
This sounds wonderful. Is it good as a batter for cupcakes?
It shrinks some so I wouldn't suggest it for cupcakes
I can’t find your recipe. Will you please post again? Beautiful cake!!!
I always post the links in the comment box below the video. Thanks!

Hi there. I need to make a baby shower cake. I need 3 layers of 10 inch. Is doubling the recipe enough? Thanks
I love your accent and tutorials.
It should be plenty! Thanks for the compliments.
Edna, I made this cake this weekend. Flavor was amazing and it was super moist. One thing that happened to me though, after I took the cake out and the cake began to cool, yes it shrunk (which next time i will do the parchment paper thing), but it also was a weird shape. Not sure how to even describe it...but the top half of the cake shrank more than the bottom half (if that makes sense). Could it be i didn't whip my egg whites enough? Thoughts?
The eggs should be stiff peaks but not dry peaks. Do you live in high altitude?
No, I live in good ol Texas....lol
I have never had that issue and I live in Florida. Just as hot as good ol Texas..lol I want to figure out where the shrinkage is coming from but the taste is so amazing that I can bypass it for now. Let me know if it does better with the parchment paper for you.
i'm thinking i didn't beat the egg whites enough...i looked back at your video this morning and my egg whites weren't as stiff as yours and i noticed when i incorporated the egg white it looked like the batter broke...anywho, i will try it again and let you know how it turns out. Thank you for taking the time to respond to me.
My pleasure! Yes beat them to stiff peaks but not dry!
Always love your tutorials :) 💜💙💜💙
This looks delicious. Can you use pasteurized egg whites?
They can take some time to make but I try to add all the information I think might help people achieve a good outcome!
Hi edna what is the brand of vanilla extract you are using if you do not mind sharing.. Love your tutorials
I love using vanilla paste. Nielsen Massey had a good one and there's another one called Madagascar that is really good too. They have all the seeds and the taste is amazing.
Great video! Is the crumb of this cake appropriate for covering with buttercream and fondant?
Yes you can cover it with fondant. Thank you!
Edna De la Cruz thank you!
Hi Edna!! I love your tutorials. Always amazing! I tried this recipe but the cake sank on the center while in the oven. Any help? Thanks in advance!
Cakes Boutique You over mixed your batter when adding the dry ingredients and milk.
Adriana Magana thanks for your reply. Will try the recipe again. 😊
Do you use cake flour or regular flour?
I use cake flour, it gives a lighter crumb
Can I use regular flour
Hola edna tengo una pregunta puedo agregarle a la mezcla colorante diferente colores para hacer un pastel con layers de diferentes colores (rainbow cake )muchas gracia por compartir tus recetas
Si, claro que puedes. Asegurate que sean de buena calidad para que no le añadan sabor raro al bizcocho.
Mil gracias por responder !!! Gracias por compartir tus recetas
I don’t have a stand mixer can u use a hand mixer ?
Yes..it's a bit harder bit it can be done.
Looks delicious 🌼
It's really delicious!
Does this recipe make 4 size 8 rounds? Or just 2??
Hi
Great tutorial and recipe!
I can get the bowl clean for the egg whites but what's the best way to clean the whisk attachment?
Use gloves and clean with the fingers would be the easiest.
Edna De la Cruz Thanks for the reply. So basically each wire separately?
Basically! You can tap the excess first and that helps too.
Edna De la Cruz Thanks again! Looking forward to trying the recipe :)
Good luck! Hope you enjoy.
