This recipe is a keeper. Thank you so much! Made this for my father's birthday because he wanted a date cake and my oh my! It came out delicious - not a crumb left. Few alterations I made - 150g of brown sugar and 5 eggs (that weighted around 260g).
So relieved and glad that I came upon your channel at last. This is what I've been searching and searching. All of them made a paste of the dates. You've made it very easy to follow your instructions and demonstration.
Baked this cake!! Jeeeezzz it’s delicious big time!! I use a bit more black tea in dates instead of adding milk. Waited for 2 days before I ate , oooooo soooo fabulous, I thought I was in Heaven 🥰 Soooooo thank you very much 😘👏👏👍🏼
I made this using your receipy.. Trust me it came super delicious... My famy keep asking to make this again and again. Thank you so much . Best of luck for your channel. Keep posting ❤
@@SueRanStyle Update: Cake made. Turned out fantastic. The tea trick really made the whole cake moist, as well as adding a flavour which complimented the rest of the ingredients. PS Cake now gone! 😄. Thanks again.
D G haha!😆that’s so nice to hear! Yes I love adding tea as it enhance the flavors. I am so glad you all liked it! 💕Thank you again for trying to out and giving your feedback! 😊
Hi can I use dates dat r not dry? I mean those dates come in packets.If so do I still have to use tea to soften them?They will be softened easily if I crush them
Dates are very sweet naturally. I wonder why so much sugar is needed for this recipe…everyone commenting says it’s delicious but I would like to try it with less sugar.
Hi can I know if I can you use normal flour instead of all purpose flour or can it be mixed as I'm running short of all purpose flour as I badly need to make this. Thanks

Hansanie Dissanayake when you soak dates in tea, probably in black strong tea, dates will swell up and absorb the tea which will give a real good rich flavor to the cake..it does help with color but mostly a good complex flavor.😊
I haven’t tried coffee. You have to soak dates in tea or in hot water before using in recipes. To soften it up. But I usually put coffee in to my cakes. Specially if it’s a chocolate cake adding coffee enhance chocolate flavor.
@@SueRanStyle thank you so much for replying and this awesome recipe!! I just halved the recipe (don't have as big a cake tin). And halved everything except the cup of hot tea (forgot to halve it). Since it had plenty of moisture, I didn't need to add the milk . But the cake came out silky soft and the dates were really moist and tender! Real revelation! A note to myself so I remember next time I make this: 1. Added a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon as well since I didn't have vanilla 2. Added juice of quarter of lime. 3. Cooked in the loaf tin, needed 5 min more cooking time. 4. Since my baking soda is usually very very strong (and soapy tasting), I added only 1/2 tsp of it in the tea while soaking the dates 5. Added a whole tsp of baking powder in the flour 6. Soaked dates for 6 hrs
I am suuuch a sweet tooth,but seeing that much sugar in DATES cake it's just a big NOOOO. I never add sugar to dates cake,but my husband never eats this cake because it is still too sweet for him from dates itself
I don’t have a sweet tooth & I have made this cake sooo many times, but I don’t think it comes out too sweet. But then it can be a bias opinion. You can definitely reduce the sugar amount and opt out sugar at all. Since I am using black tea it balances out the sugar for some extent..sorry that it doesn’t work for you. Happy New Year!

Hii sister. the second time also you adding baking soda ? Not the baking powder right ?
Zainab Refath Yes. Baking soda. I am using 11/2 tsp baking soda for the entire recipe. 😊
@@SueRanStyle Thankyou i baked it today and it tasted delicious. :) hope to try your other recipes.

Should it compulsory to soak the dates.
Yes
Hi can I know if I can you use normal flour instead of all purpose flour or can it be mixed as I'm running short of all purpose flour as I badly need to make this.
Thanks
andrianna de silva yes you can. No problem with that. Add required baking powder/soda in the recipe..happy baking 😊
@@SueRanStyle you have mentioned only soda? Should I add baking powder too? If so how much?
Can wheat flour be used too?

Yummy 💕
Can I substitute baking soda with baking powder?
Yes
Same qty of baking powder or more
May I ask.. will this cake turn out to taste like tea in the end or it will just taste like a normal date cake?
No, it doesn't taste like tea.
What is the size of this cake? Please reply me I wait you reply
Baked for 45minutes what degrees
Why do u use black tea??? Get the dark clr for the cake???
Hansanie Dissanayake when you soak dates in tea, probably in black strong tea, dates will swell up and absorb the tea which will give a real good rich flavor to the cake..it does help with color but mostly a good complex flavor.😊
SueRan ok thanks akkiiiii. Take care. Bye
