Thank you for the recipe! I made this cake yesterday and it turned out delicious, not too sweet. I skipped the boba topping as it will become chewy when chilled. I didn't have taro powder so I substituted with steamed taro, decreased the milk and increase oil. Your videos are very aesthetic, keep up the good work!

[@thesugarhideout]

I'm glad it turned out well for you, thanks for trying the recipe! 😁

This looks soooooo yummy! Do you think the bbt batter can be baked in a bundt or 9” cake pan?

[@thesugarhideout]

Hi! I've never tried sponge cake using a bundt pan, hence I can't make any guarantees.
With a 9" round pan - yes, but you will have a substantially thinner cake unless you increase the batter. You will need to adjust baking time. Bake until a toothpick comes clean (some small crumbs are ok).

You rock! Im obsessed with taro bbt and that cake looks sooooooo good! I can literally taste it! 🤭 I will try your recipe and then Take it from there! And thank you for the quick response!

[@thesugarhideout]

No problem, hoping all goes well!@@cmesmile74

Is taro bbt powder the same as taro powder? I want to make this at home for my birthday

[@thesugarhideout]

Some bbt taro powders are labeled as just "taro powder." Check the ingredients - bbt powder has additives such as non dairy creamer, food dye, flavour and sugar. Hope this helps!
