Mashallah you are doing fantastic @Mk
May Allah swt bless you ameen
Thank you for your help and efforts. You & your work are appreciated. Thank you. & May Christ bless you & “yous.r”
This reminds me of a childhood favourite. My mother learnt a recipe in the 1970s from an aunt for ‘ Pineapple Sponge Cake dessert’. It started with a sponge cake that is almost exactly like yours but it was drenched with lightly sweetened milk and syrup from the pineapple can. The cream icing wasn’t sweetened since the pineapple chunks were deemed sweet enough. I guess people like their desserts much sweeter and richer now. One could easily have half of it in one sitting such was the light airiness.
That sounds sooo delicious! I'll have to try that out sometime :D
Ohhhh tres leche hecho por ti. Será una locura. Graciass 💖 por regalarnos un martes dulce. Y maravilloso ❤
Gracias!! :D
Dear plz share the recepie of strawberry cheesecake
Can u make some flavour ones. Seasonal fruits
Your recipes are my go to! I love the crumbly equation you mastered and shared with us. May Allah reward you delights from Jannah
Now here is a challenge: I've been trying to make the cakes "healthier" by adding protein powder, but no matter how I tweaked it it never came out right.. I wonder if you can somehow crack it ? 😅😅
Aww thank you so much for all your love and duas! I wish the same for you sis :D
Haha healthier cakes can be sooo tricky because sugar plays a huge role in the texture of a cake. I do plan to experiment with this and hopefully share some healthier recipes at the beginning of next year (when everyones feeling pumped to try healthier alternatives haha) :D
Great recipe. How about if i have a prty, so i freeze the batter and then balls on the day... is it still gonna be fluffy?
This cake was such a rage in India an year back.
Interesting!! Had no idea :)
Is taking the crust off NECESSARY 100% or will the milk mixture still soak in if we leave it?
This looks so great! I have a question please- How do I halve this recipe and adjust baking time? I want to make this just for my husband and myself so such a large cake would be too much for us. Thank you!
Thank you!! :) You can simply half the quantities (I have a button on my recipe card on my blog that will help you do this automatically) and then use a smaller baking tin (an 8 or 9 inch round tin should work well). Because the thickness of the cake is roughly the same, the baking time will be around the same as the original recipe, but just test it by gently touching the top and if it slowly bounces back the cake is ready (you can use a toothpick to check too). Hope that helps! :)
@@CakesbyMK thank you so much! I did go to your blog and found the extremely convenient button you have included (thank you). I made the cake just as you’ve said and my husband, I kid you not, ate the entire cake by himself. It was fabulous.
Looks very yummy, can’t wait to try this, but if I want it eggless, how much of butttermilk or curd should I use instead of eggs,please help me out.
Thank you Zeenat! :D
Unfortunately for this recipe, with it being a sponge cake it relies heavily on the eggs for its structure and rise. I don't think you'll be able to replicate it by substituting the eggs with buttermilk or yoghurt. It might be best to search for an eggless tres leches cake recipe :)
Sorry about that!
Hi MK! This is my daughter's favorite cake! But I have a question. Why add oil? Have always heard that sponge cakes do not have any fat. But this looks delicious! I guess it is time to update my recipe 😊
Hi Belle! Great question :)
So some sponge cakes don't have any fat, and some have a little (like a genoise sponge). I just find that a tad bit of oil helps to keep the cake super soft and moist. Sometimes there can be bits of a tres leches cake that may not be soaked as well as other bits, so the extra oil just helps to make sure that you never get a dry bite! :)
Hope you enjoy the recipe :D
Can you please make a video of basic mistakes when we make cakes
Yesss I've done a few videos on this already :D check out this video first: th-cam.com/video/DRy1KuFMdOo/w-d-xo.html
And you can find more on this playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLHs34tfPHZqbqS83re-SzlLqdJccdNqnw.html&si=3YM7dK3BMV9CBXGn
Hope that helps! :)
What can be used in place of mascarpone? Love always
Hi there! :) You can simply leave it out and make a more simple whipped cream (the recipe for the simple version is on the video and in my blog post - cakesbymk.com/recipe/the-best-tres-leches-cake/)
You could also use cream cheese but it does change the taste of the whipped cream :)
Can I do a round and layered tres
Leches cake?
Heya! :) Good question! I’ve never tried a layered Tres Leches before, but I imagine if you soak the cakes while you’re assembling the layer cake and then let it sit for a while to soak up the milk it should work fine? It would probably be too hard to move the cake layers if they’re soaked beforehand - if that makes sense! I’ll have to try it out sometime and maybe share a recipe 😀
In the Stabilized Whipped Cream, can Philadelphia cream cheese be used to replace the Mascarpone? I cannot afford the latter. Would I increase the sugar?
You made tres leches before too on this channel..which recipe is best. I want to bake Saturday morning
Hi there! :) This recipe is better (in my opinion) and is the one that is on my blog :)
hope that helps and hope you enjoy the recipe!
Hi what do you do with your cakes, i mean do you make these cakes for video only.
Hi! Yes just for videos/my blog :)
My family and friends get the leftovers :D
"TROIS LAITS" in French
MK por favor, por favor, ❤ necesito hacerte dos preguntitas. La tarta de fideos de colores, se me fundieron los fideos en el biscocho, que hago ? Y cdo haces un biscocho el día antes, para montar la tarta al otro día como lo conservas???
Hola! :D For the sprinkles disappearing, it's best to use a brand that uses artificial color not natural color, and the sprinkles should be relatively firm :)
For preserving cake layers, I would recommend wrapping them in cling wrap and placing into an airtight container until you are ready to use them the next day :)
Hope that helps!
Muchas graciass MK, utilice los fideos Arco Iris Vahine, 71g. Y los biscochos los envuelvo en papel film dentro de un recipiente hermetico PERO a temperatura ambiente o dentro del refrigerador hasta el otro día???
Hi. Where did you get your pan? Link please. Thank you.
Hi there! I got it from a shop here in NZ called Milly's, but you can also find it on Amazon - here is a link :) amzn.to/4bwQe0u
On which stage you added flour mixture?
Heya! At the end after adding in the first half of the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture :)
How many days we can store this cake 🍰
Heya! :) For about a week in the fridge :)
Can Philadelphia cream cheese be used?
Hi there! :) This will change the taste of the whipped cream (I prefer the more neutral taste of the mascarpone), but technically you can use cream cheese as a whipped cream stabiliser too :)
What's the size of the pan?
Hi there! Its a 9x13 inch pan :)
This is nice cake i like making but I am vegitarian so please share me without egg this recipe either sugarcane replacement for eggs
Thank you!! :) I have a few eggless recipes you can check out here: cakesbymk.com/recipe-category/eggless/
Hope that helps!
