Hi, thanks for watching and trying this recipe. Glad to hear your positive feedback. Happy that you like it. This cake is all time favourite in my family. Cheers :)
Hello from London. Thanks so much for sharing a detailed recipe of your Pandan cake. I also read your blog about this Pandan cake. One thing I learned is the waterbath technique, which is very effective for having a soft, Moist and pillowy chiffon cake. My cakes are no longer deflating.☺️
This cake is beautiful and the recipe is top notch. I got a few suggestions - the cake is too tall which could be circumvent by baking the cake in a larger diameter round baking pan. The decorations are lacking green colour - could have save some icing and put green pandan paste for the green colour piping. Or simply cut some pandan leaves into petals like leaves.
Hi, Thanks for watching. The recipe is in the link of the description. www.bakewithpaws.com/2017/07/pandan-cotton-cake-with-gula-melaka.html Just cut down the recipe to half for one 6 inch pan. Cheers :)
Hi, Thanks for watching. Yes, you can. But, I never used store bought pandan extract before and not sure how it works. Maybe you can search for recipe using pandan extract for refererence? Cheers :)

Hi I have made a bigger batch of the meringue buttercream and stored in the refrigerator. After back to room temperature still very firm , do you think I can still add some pandan juice or coconut milk and whip to soften the buttercream? Pls advise
Sorry for late response. It will become soft once it is back to room temperature but not melting or too soft. Do not required to add anything. But, you can beat a little bit with machine to get the smooth texture. If you want to make pandan buttercream, then it is fine to add thick pandan juice. Cheers :)
Hi, yes it is 6 inch round cake. Please find the full details in the recipe: www.bakewithpaws.com/2017/07/pandan-cotton-cake-with-gula-melaka.html It is not advisable to line the side of the pan. This will make the cake sink alot during cooling. Cheers :)
Hi. Do u got extra buttercream from this recipe or it yield just nice to cover the cake? May i know if i can omit or substitute cream of tartar since i don't have one?And can i use coconut milk?

Hi Paws, would the Swiss meringue buttercream work if I do not add the gula melaka syrup? I noticed your ratio of sugar to whites is less compared to western recipes that do 2:1. Thank you.
I made this one today.. dor my sister birthday.. the cake is very nice.. not to sweet.. but the meringue is very sweet, may i know how to reduce the sweetness in the buttercream that is already made? Thank you.. 😊😊
Thanks for watching and trying this recipe. The only way is to cut down the sugar in meringue for the buttercream. But, you cannot cut down by a lot as it will affect the consistency of the buttercream. Cheers :)
