I just made it twice today! I highly recommend baking it less because it seems like it over baked. Instead of 55, I baked for 45 and let it sit for 20 mins. I found that putting rice flour made it extra delicious! Thank you so much for a great recipe!
Yeah sometime added rice flour too . Some oven are hotter so if you see it white sponge it’s too baked so less time is good . Thnx for sharing your experience so we all can learn :)
This is the yummiest and most convenient recipe (I’d like to use all my 400ml coconut milk can and the whole 400g tapioca starch bag). Make sure you’re gentle with the eggs and it will turn out perfect. Thank you so much chị Katie. I almost gave up on this before finding your channel.
Finally my honeycomb cake is perfect!! I tried many recipes before but this one will be my go to. I think the best tip was adding the eggs in last. Super happy with the results!
Hi Katie, Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with us. I've made this several times now, and every time I make this, it's the first desserts that disappeared first!!!😂
I've failed miserably following other people's instructions online. Thankfully I came across your video and finally had a chance to enjoy a beautiful and delicious honeycomb cake!!! So excited to make this for the upcoming holiday parties. 🥰 Thanks so much Katie!!!
Awww thnx so much for sharing!!!! I understand how you feel. I always tell others if you like softer less chewy 9 eggs is perfect too ^____^ your cake will be a hit at the party for sure !!!
Thxn Em for sharing!!!!! 🤩🤩 glad it turn out good for you. Now you master it you can change the flavor and up and down the eggs content for softer or chewy texture you like :)
Hi, got to tell you this. It was a success and making more for friends tomorrow. Im vegan today so can only look but can't wait to try tomorrow. Thanks so much
Made it yesterday using your recipe the cake came out so perfect. With lots & lot of air bubbles that created the honeycomb structure. I used frozen pandan leaves/juice Smell amazing. Thank you for sharing your recipe 🙏👍

Hi Katie! I have tried several other recipes to make this cake and failed miserably until I came across your TH-cam. Thanks to you I was able to make the cake successfully first time around.

Good morning Katie. Finally I managed to get the honeycomb texture. I didnt use double acting baking powder, but 1 tsp baking soda and 2 tsp cream of tar tar and it turned out very well. Thanks for help. I will try using dbl baking powder and hope to get the honeycomb texture.
I was helping my friend and she did it at my place. I asked her what did you do diff when you bake at home that cause the “fail” she said she skipped a lot of my step ! Omg!!!!!!!! I told her … okay then….
Single acting baking powder is also working out really well. The crucial steps that Katie mentioned were all spot on. My cake turned out super delicious with all honeycomb structure. I did add 1 tbsp rice flour Thanks Katie 😍
Good morning Katie. I am very disappointed, I just dont understand why I cant get the honeycomb texture after so many tries from different recipes.I followed all the instructions, but to no avail . I dont know where I went wrong!!!

Hi Katie, I baked the cake again today and took pictures of it. as I dont have instagram , how can I forward the pictures, can I watsapp you ? Your watsapp please
It doesn’t matter much, more egg will yield less chewy as more tapioca volumes. My video showed 7 eggs, it more chewy and less eggs . Most people preferred 8-10 eggs. So sometime I do make 9 eggs.
Thank you for the video. I can’t wait to try it as I have failed in the past. Where did you find your mesh strainer that you use before putting it in the hot pan?
I got it at the Asian market. But you can also just use the big one for the first (Daiso has it like a frying mesh thing the hole is big enough ) But if you use big strainer you can use a the measurement cup cover the hole in the middle and pour . P
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482wow thank you for the quick reply! I tried to flip it but it is still stuck to the pan :( I followed the recipe exactly, baked for 55 mins on 350, cracked door and let it cool. I sprayed the Bundt pan with the non stick spray too. I also notice it deflate a little. Do you know what I can do differently?
I really recommend Pam original spray . It’s does awesome for me and Gave the golden crunch almost finished. And yes it will deflate a tiny bit. And also old baking powder won’t work well . Yup yup
Hi Katie, I am going to try your recipe next after randomly succeed and failed with other recipes. Wish me luck and looks like you can do with a camera man, haha
Great video Em! Katie dễ thương qúa đi. I will definitely give your recipe a try sis. I have tried 3 recipes from TH-cam, they all failed either very little honeycomb or with strong egg scent. I like how simple you share your techniques too sis. Keep up the good work Em!
Katie’s Fail-proof Kitchen Does this cake rise a lot Sis? Also, what level of rack in the oven (top, center, or bottom)? Thanks! I try to make it today ☺️.
Fantastic tutorial! You explain very well. Cant wait to try this recipe. I have tried many recipes and most unsuccessfully. It flattened or not much servings.
If you mix in the eggs, one by one, to the flour; and then thinning the batter with the coconut milk mixture; then you don’t need to strain the batter at all. It’ll smooth without any curdles.
I have tried a few recipes and Katie’s recipe is the simplest yet with big success. Even got Mr. Pham 👍👍 (he is super picky when come to bánh bò and bánh bò nướng). Thank you Katie for sharing your fail proof recipe Sis! The cake is soft and fluffy with lots of air pockets (honeycombs). 🥰😘😋
Hi chi! I made it yday and it came out delicious and gorgeous. The only problem is the cake was slightly lopsided even though I mixed it w the fork beforehand. Do you have any tips?
Hi Katie! I still follow your recipe when my mom requests bánh bò nướng, and it hasn’t failed yet! Have you ever made this in a smaller pan? I’d like to make smaller-sized bundt cakes instead of one big one and wanted to see if you’ve tried before.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 I'm planning to make it again for the holidays but I want to make it in mini bundt cake pans, they are almost like big cupcake pans but in a bundt cake shape. Do you know how that would affect the cook time?
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you! I'll try it and let you know! :) Do you think the time I leave it in the open with the door partially open should stay the same?
OMG, I just tried! My Pandan essence is not paste form and very liquid-y, so mine didn't turn out green, but it tastes great with wonderful texture! Thank you for the easy to follow recipe!
Mine also seemed more liquidy and less concentrated and 1/2 teaspoon didn't give it enough flavor. I increased the amount to 1 and a half teaspoons and that seemed to work well. Mine was McCormick brand pandan extract.
Just wondering if you know the difference between the double acting and Alsa baking powder. My first couple tries according to your instructions turned out good but my last try couple days ago did not turn out great. It must be because I cooked it on the very bottom rack.
Yes, depends on your oven bottoms heat or top, not one may not reach the top heat to help it rise Bc it’s not hot enough? , I don’t use alsa, therefore I’m not quite sure. But most of my friends use alsa. But not all stores has it therefore double acting is easier for me Bc it available everywhere . I use it for all my baking.
Hi Katie! This is definitely a fool proof recipe, as I made this for the first time with great success (and have made multiple times since)! Wondering how far ahead I can make the cakes? If I make the night before, is it okay to serve the next day,
Yayyyyy!!!!!!!! 🥰😍 It can be serve next day for sure … just leave it at room temp in close conainter- sure can dry it. Can microwave it 20 seconds and it be soft and yummy.
I can’t add pix here, but I used several brand, the SF , chicken pix, ong địa brand. Most of them came in 400g packages . Most Asian or Chinese stores Carried it yah
I try twice the frist one it's ok the shape but this time I put to other molding container one out like a volcano shape or kiss chocolate 🤔same procedure I did why like this!
The only think I can think of when cake become volcano is egg over beaten. But the method was never beaten the egg. Not sure 😥 One thing I learn is convection bake will make it lopsided . I usually give it a tap like bring it up and drop it slightly to get all bubbles out and it really helps evenly top. But as far as volcano -- hmmm… 🤗
`hi Katie Very good video compare to the last one. Hope u have a lot more coming. I tried the cake it came out good But not as good as your., I used regular baking settings. Did u use convection baking at 350 or 325. ? I will retry it Thx u
Just add half or all of the coconut milk in the blender along with cut leaf and use almond or cheese cloth to squeeze out the milk and use that. No water added :)
Hi chi Katie, I use convection oven (breville oven) since I don’t have the regular oven. What is recommended temperature you would recommend? Also my first batch came out great honeycomb straight texture on bottom but it start to look like honeycomb circle texture on top . What would it be? Thank you for your help
You can use the small oven. Try 50 mins instead of 55. If you seeing lighter color spongy like at the corner then it’s too long. You can shorten the time. It has bake function. It’s fine . I have the same oven. I used sometime. So honeycomb ok too but not bottom you mean?
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you for replying our questions chi. Would you be able to share your temperature that you use for that convection breville oven please? It was more re tre on bottom and honeycomb (holes) on top
@@Richbosses869 still use 350f to bake do , co hole on top hmmm cai nay mới 🤔 chắc có lẽ bánh của em nó siêu rồi nên nó honeycomb con lớn hơn 🤗 giỡn chứ , em thu bake lần 2 xem có như vậy luôn khong
Hi, I want to try to make this cake using my air fryer, it’s 1750 watts. Can you please tell me what temperature I should preheat and bake the bake and for how long I should bake it?
I never use air fryer before but I have seen people using airfryer at 350f for 35-40 mins. Although some covered the Bundt cake with foil then poke hole for air.
If I use loaf pans instead, would cooking time be the same? Also would a muffin pan work and would it be the same time? I tend to like the outer part of the cake and I think a muffin pan would be great to get the most of that 😅
Loaf Pan would work as well. But might have to use more than 1 loaf pan same cooking time. As far as the muffin pan, you mean the 6 or 12 slots? if its that small. Bake time need to be less.
It has the chewy texture, sweet and because of the Honeycomb structure give it more airy vs dense like eating dough. If you don't like pandan flavor you can also try adding Coffee instead :D
It will deflate just a little but it should still keep it form. I would let the batter react 10 mins before take out the hot pan from the oven and transfer the batter to the sieve for the last time . ^____^, use the big sieve for the initial like in my video,
Middle rack. Once baked. When you cut it open you see white sponge at the corner too much - meaning it’s over baked. Some oven is hotter so reduce the time by few mins -
Thank you for this recipe! I finally perfected this. I am planning to bake 2 of these for Tet. Would you happen to know if I can bake 2 at once or not? If so, would it be the same cooking time or longer? Thank you, and Happy Lunar New Year!!!
Hello Katie! I made your recipe and it came out so good! However, the crust was a bit flaky...I think maybe my oven is too hot. How can you tell when it is ready?
Yayy!!!!!! Usually at 55 mins baked it’s not golden yet - when turn off oven and still have it in there it gonna be golden. You can leave it in for 10 mins only or baked at 50 mins . If oven is hotter . 😇😍🥰
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 I did spray the pan and the cake actually didn't come out after cooking outside 10mins. I had to use a knife. Maybe I spray too much oil? Most of it kept falling down to a puddle.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 ooh definitely something wrong with my oven... It was already golden at 55 mins. Okay, do you suggest lower temperature or shorter time?
That brand I used is 425g, but 400g is also common to find so I use that too. 25 g doesn’t make much diff . But 9 eggs will be softer vs 7 eggs more chewier and when it at room temp it become more dense due to ratio of eggs and tapioca :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 I'm having friends over tomorrow. I find that the banh bo tastes better the next day since all the flavors have seeped and it doesn't taste too egg-y. Is it possible to reheat in the oven without drying it out?
Microwave for short min will be softer. And 7 eggs is more chewy .. if you like soy free add more eggs like 8/9. Taste eggy? It shouldn’t. Do you use pandan paste and vanilla extract?
We leave at room temperature. If 7 eggs it will be more chewy as it cool to room. if you like it softer you can use 9 eggs total. after a day it will still be soft.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you! I tried making it yesterday and it turned out great! I was craving this but they don't sell it in my area. Better than some of bakeries I've been to :)
Yes lots of market make it very dense not much of honey comb structure . Once you make at home you don’t want to buy anymore :) , my family like it chewy so I used 7 eggs, but 9 eggs is so yummy too
Yes you can , even 7 eggs of the big eggs is good too. More egg give it more softer bbn. I used 9 eggs sometime too if I don’t want it to be too chewy :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 hmm my cake still came out flaky and had to pull the cake out. I used a non stick Bundt pan and sprayed with avocado oil- does that matter?
The avocado oil is not butter. The pam one is butter so it tend to give it more smooth bc that’s all I used. Maybe try with Pam spray the original and see if it makes a diff. 😜
I used diff brands from Asian market … the chicken on the bag, the Ong dia… or SF brand all made in Thai land. Just make sure it’s 400 g bags bc there’s a bag that is 425g? The. You have to wt it out… too much work 😂
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 sorry sis that I have to bother you again .. on your written recipe you wrote 400g of tapioca but on your vdo you said 425g prepackaged.. also eggs on your vdo you said 6 eggs but you actually cracked 7 eggs in the bowl ..! Should I follow written recipes or your VDO sis ? Sorry again sis 🙏🙏
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you sister .. it was succeed for the try ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much for a wonderful recipe and great details..! I wish I can share my pictures with you on TH-cam 😃😃😃
Hi Katie, 1st time making it today and it turned out perfect. However, my Mom is saying it's a bit too chewy for her, so what can I add to make it not so chewy? Thank you!
Good question …. Never tried it before …. It might be ok …. I often use corn starch to thickened the soup just like using tapioca starch … might work ^____^ let me know if you ever try it :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you very much for your prompt reply,I baked it but failed,at first it raised very much,as soon as got out the oven it collapsed no honey comb but look like banh da lợn and very chewy ,please advise,thank you
After watching your video several times ,I have question why you need to cut the egg yolk? And you do not need to mix well the egg right?do you need to leave the oven door open during baking or after ,thank you for your professional advise .
@@mayphan2872 This honeycomb cake its not like other cakes. We don't want to whisk the egg , to avoid it we just separate a little by cutting the yolk. Once baked after 55 mins - we open the oven door a little to introduce the room temp -trying to avoid shock from way too hot to cool room so I recommended to let it sit and continue to bake inside the oven with the remaining temp inside the oven as the surface will get more golden after 15-20 mins in oven with slightly door open. Noted, we only open once it baked 55 mins. turn off and open oven a little. when egg over beaten - we will lose the honeycomb structure - and the pan needed to be preheated - once take it out pour the batter like in video as fast as you can and put it back in to bake.
Good Morning Katie, Did you receive my email with picture of my cake which was sent 2 days ago? I am really at my wits end , I just couldnt get the honeycomb texture. Where should I place the pan - bottom or middle layer of oven and should the oven be bottom and top fire Does the pan need to be heated before baking, cause I came across a recipe that pan was not preheated with oven. It was greased with oil, batter poured in then put into oven to be baked. The ingredients were combined all together and the cake turned out well!!!!
I got your email and emailed you back . Placed middle rack and for my recipe it’s need to be preheated. I can only tell you regarding my how I do mine Bc it’s works for me every-time and others. I can help you see what you do differently.
What size bundt pan do you use? And also what did I do wrong if the bottom half (layer that becomes the top once flipped) has honeycomb structure but the top have is all congealed and looks like steam layer cake?
12 cup pan size. Could be the temp. Is true temp 350f and did you preheat pan in the oven for 15-20 mins before bake? Other than that usually mixing is not a problem for that. Let me know :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 i used an 8 inch bundt pan im guessing that was the issue as I did everything else as per your directions, if I split the batter between 2 8 inch bundt pans would I still cook for the same time or would it be for 35 min in the oven and 20 mins with door opened?
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 i poured the whole batter into 1 8inch bundt pan and cooked for the entire time, I was just wondering for next time on soze and time.
I think mine could have been 8 inch. The common size when you search for Bundt cake pan. If you decided to split the batter maybe try 35-40 Bc this type take a while to cook. When it golden on top it’s ready to be turn off. So you can do that . I use big sieve, I tried the tiny one and and made my cake bad. But I did the temp and the way I prep and preheat the pan. Once it out pour the batter into the sieve one more time and go around the circle . You should have the same result each time. I recalled some had heavy bottom . 1 pan is not preheated. 2 sieved . I also use middle rack.
I literally tried this twice with other Recipes and I did a horrible job. Third time using yours was a charm! Your tips are so helpful and I just absolutely love the way you show us how to do it and your helpful tips. I’m addicted now.
Now you can try other flavor you like as you got the basic technique down :) thnx for sharing

Thankyou so much 🙏😎
Hello Katie, does the size of the eggs matter? medium vs large? thank you.
It doesn’t matter much, more egg will yield less chewy as more tapioca volumes. My video showed 7 eggs, it more chewy and less eggs . Most people preferred 8-10 eggs. So sometime I do make 9 eggs.
Hi Katie, did you bake with the fan or without the fan? Thank you in advance!
Without fan. Just regular bake. No convection
Beautiful cake !
Thankyou very much 🙏
Thank you for the video. I can’t wait to try it as I have failed in the past. Where did you find your mesh strainer that you use before putting it in the hot pan?
I got it at the Asian market. But you can also just use the big one for the first (Daiso has it like a frying mesh thing the hole is big enough )
But if you use big strainer you can use a the measurement cup cover the hole in the middle and pour . P
my cake overflowed and i was worried.. but IT STILL CAME OUT GREAT!!!! THANK YOU :D
Thxn for sharing !!! Love it
I followed the recipe to a tee and it came out perfect on my first try! I love how easy and simple this recipe is!
Love it!!!!!!
Thank you for your video instruction!! It turned out amazing! Really fail-proof! ☺️☺️
Thankyou for sharing!!!!! If you like it softer yu can use 9 eggs. :)
First time making it and it was a success!!! Thank you so much.
awesome!! thanks for sharing Liem :D
Do you let it cool completely in the Bundt pan? Or do you flip it upside down over cooling rack until it’s cooled down? Thank you for recipe!
@@JulieanneTo oh I take them out of the pan . Then let it cool on the rack. 🥰🥰🥰
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482wow thank you for the quick reply! I tried to flip it but it is still stuck to the pan :( I followed the recipe exactly, baked for 55 mins on 350, cracked door and let it cool. I sprayed the Bundt pan with the non stick spray too. I also notice it deflate a little. Do you know what I can do differently?
Did you preheat oven along with the burnt pan? I really pam spray it. 😂😂
I really recommend Pam original spray . It’s does awesome for me and Gave the golden crunch almost finished. And yes it will deflate a tiny bit. And also old baking powder won’t work well . Yup yup
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 yes I did! I use Pam too, same as yours, but maybe I just need to spray a lot more haha
Hi Katie, I am going to try your recipe next after randomly succeed and failed with other recipes. Wish me luck and looks like you can do with a camera man, haha
Good luck!!!!!😇🥰 I wish I have a camera Manx
Great video Em! Katie dễ thương qúa đi. I will definitely give your recipe a try sis. I have tried 3 recipes from TH-cam, they all failed either very little honeycomb or with strong egg scent. I like how simple you share your techniques too sis. Keep up the good work Em!
aww thanks sis!!! yeah i'm trying to simply so everyone can succeed :D
Katie’s Fail-proof Kitchen Does this cake rise a lot Sis? Also, what level of rack in the oven (top, center, or bottom)? Thanks! I try to make it today ☺️.
rất tuyệt! e làm theo và rata thành công ạh!! cám ơn chị
Cam on em cho chi biet nha. Rat vui !!! ^__^
Fantastic tutorial! You explain very well. Cant wait to try this recipe. I have tried many recipes and most unsuccessfully. It flattened or not much servings.
Thnx so much !!! I found it easy once you get the techniques down :)
Hi!!! I tried it and this turned out perfect! Thank u !
Thankyou
Awesome. Thank you dear♥️🙏♥️
Thankyou!!! Happy baking ^____^
If you mix in the eggs, one by one, to the flour; and then thinning the batter with the coconut milk mixture; then you don’t need to strain the batter at all. It’ll smooth without any curdles.
I have tried a few recipes and Katie’s recipe is the simplest yet with big success. Even got Mr. Pham 👍👍 (he is super picky when come to bánh bò and bánh bò nướng). Thank you Katie for sharing your fail proof recipe Sis! The cake is soft and fluffy with lots of air pockets (honeycombs). 🥰😘😋
really happy for the sharing sis :D
Hi chi! I made it yday and it came out delicious and gorgeous. The only problem is the cake was slightly lopsided even though I mixed it w the fork beforehand. Do you have any tips?
Yes, make sure it on regular bake and not convection bake. And I let it sit for 10 mins before pour in the hot baking pan and into the oven.
Hi Katie! I still follow your recipe when my mom requests bánh bò nướng, and it hasn’t failed yet! Have you ever made this in a smaller pan? I’d like to make smaller-sized bundt cakes instead of one big one and wanted to see if you’ve tried before.
20 mins for 6 small Bundt (like usually 6 mold in a tray.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you! I’m gonna try it out with a smaller pan i have.
@alyssaphaan let me know how it goes :)
Love this recipe! Tried it and it turned out great! Looking forward to making it again
aww thank you so much for watching :D
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 I'm planning to make it again for the holidays but I want to make it in mini bundt cake pans, they are almost like big cupcake pans but in a bundt cake shape. Do you know how that would affect the cook time?
Let try 30-35 mins. And watch for the light brown on top meaning it cooked ^____^ let me know ... I’m excited...
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you! I'll try it and let you know! :)
Do you think the time I leave it in the open with the door partially open should stay the same?
What pan are you using to bake? How many inches?
I used the 10 cup burnt pans
I think I had link in my detail info on this video page
I Succeeded
OMG, I just tried! My Pandan essence is not paste form and very liquid-y, so mine didn't turn out green, but it tastes great with wonderful texture! Thank you for the easy to follow recipe!
Thankyou so much for sharing! Love it ^___^ gave me a reason to continue hehe
I Just posted the link to pandan extract I used in the "show more"
Mine also seemed more liquidy and less concentrated and 1/2 teaspoon didn't give it enough flavor. I increased the amount to 1 and a half teaspoons and that seemed to work well. Mine was McCormick brand pandan extract.
Yeah … the butterfly brand is thicker and more fragrance. That’s the togo
Sisters look yummy
Thnx Sandy :)
Great video Thank you!
Pepper Pescatelli Thankyou!!!
Just wondering if you know the difference between the double acting and Alsa baking powder. My first couple tries according to your instructions turned out good but my last try couple days ago did not turn out great. It must be because I cooked it on the very bottom rack.
Yes, depends on your oven bottoms heat or top, not one may not reach the top heat to help it rise Bc it’s not hot enough? ,
I don’t use alsa, therefore I’m not quite sure. But most of my friends use alsa. But not all stores has it therefore double acting is easier for me Bc it available everywhere . I use it for all my baking.
Hi Katie! This is definitely a fool proof recipe, as I made this for the first time with great success (and have made multiple times since)! Wondering how far ahead I can make the cakes? If I make the night before, is it okay to serve the next day,
Yayyyyy!!!!!!!! 🥰😍
It can be serve next day for sure … just leave it at room temp in close conainter- sure can dry it. Can microwave it 20 seconds and it be soft and yummy.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you!! I have one in the oven now :)
Wow… I should make one too 😋
Thanks chi! Smell so good my husband woke up from his nap😂
Hihi that’s awesome!!!
can you show us bag of Pucketts tapioca picture? What’s look more detailed.
I can’t add pix here, but I used several brand, the SF , chicken pix, ong địa brand. Most of them came in 400g packages . Most Asian or Chinese stores Carried it yah
I gonna try this.tried so many time but didnt come out right
I try twice the frist one it's ok the shape but this time I put to other molding container one out like a volcano shape or kiss chocolate 🤔same procedure I did why like this!
The only think I can think of when cake become volcano is egg over beaten. But the method was never beaten the egg. Not sure 😥
One thing I learn is convection bake will make it lopsided . I usually give it a tap like bring it up and drop it slightly to get all bubbles out and it really helps evenly top.
But as far as volcano -- hmmm… 🤗
`hi Katie
Very good video compare to the last one.
Hope u have a lot more coming.
I tried the cake it came out good But not as good as your.,
I used regular baking settings.
Did u use convection baking at 350 or 325. ?
I will retry it
Thx u
Thankyou!!!!!! Yes still trying to improve the recording Hihi!!!
You will get better for sure :)
Use regular bake. Don’t use convection Bc it will make it lopsided - 350f is good .
This cake is very forgiving

Just add half or all of the coconut milk in the blender along with cut leaf and use almond or cheese cloth to squeeze out the milk and use that. No water added :)
Hi chi Katie, I use convection oven (breville oven) since I don’t have the regular oven. What is recommended temperature you would recommend? Also my first batch came out great honeycomb straight texture on bottom but it start to look like honeycomb circle texture on top . What would it be?
Thank you for your help
You can use the small oven. Try 50 mins instead of 55. If you seeing lighter color spongy like at the corner then it’s too long. You can shorten the time. It has bake function. It’s fine . I have the same oven. I used sometime. So honeycomb ok too but not bottom you mean?
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you for replying our questions chi. Would you be able to share your temperature that you use for that convection breville oven please? It was more re tre on bottom and honeycomb (holes) on top
@@Richbosses869 still use 350f to bake do , co hole on top hmmm cai nay mới 🤔 chắc có lẽ bánh của em nó siêu rồi nên nó honeycomb con lớn hơn 🤗 giỡn chứ , em thu bake lần 2 xem có như vậy luôn khong
I love banh bo!
Yeah me too hihihi
Hello Katie, can you please tell me what brand of baking pan do you use? Thank you.
Currently I use the one from William sonoma. Bundt cake
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 Thank you!
Hi,
I want to try to make this cake using my air fryer, it’s 1750 watts.
Can you please tell me what temperature I should preheat and bake the bake and for how long I should bake it?
I never use air fryer before but I have seen people using airfryer at 350f for 35-40 mins.
Although some covered the Bundt cake with foil then poke hole for air.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 Thank you!
You bake with the fan or no
No fan, just regular bake :)
If I use loaf pans instead, would cooking time be the same? Also would a muffin pan work and would it be the same time? I tend to like the outer part of the cake and I think a muffin pan would be great to get the most of that 😅
Loaf Pan would work as well. But might have to use more than 1 loaf pan same cooking time. As far as the muffin pan, you mean the 6 or 12 slots? if its that small. Bake time need to be less.
Hi Katie I can't find the double acting baking powder what can I use instead ? I m waiting for your reply thank you 😊
I have someone used single and it worked too . Or use -alsa the pink package
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 Thanks Katie I will try to make I hope it works 😊
Goodluck! You can do it!
Do you think I can you coconut cream Savoy brand?
Yes :)
My cake still came out unevenly. Is there any tips to avoid that? Thank you
Make sure it’s not on convection bake. Meaning the oven is blowing hot air.
Also, I let the batter rest for like 10 mins before take out the hot pan and pour. Not sure if that’s in my video ^___^
Thank you Katie. Also, do you any tip to keep the cake still soft and moist for the next day?
Tried you method and it worked!!! lots of honeycomb for sure!!!
What is this supposed to taste like? I tried it and got the honeycomb effect but not to thrilled with the taste of this cake
It has the chewy texture, sweet and because of the Honeycomb structure give it more airy vs dense like eating dough. If you don't like pandan flavor you can also try adding Coffee instead :D
Mine is nice and puffy in the often but when I let it sit in the oven with door a little open, the cake deflated. What is the trick to keep it puffy?
It will deflate just a little but it should still keep it form. I would let the batter react 10 mins before take out the hot pan from the oven and transfer the batter to the sieve for the last time . ^____^, use the big sieve for the initial like in my video,
Hi Katie,
Do you cook it on the bottom rack or middle rack?
Thanks!
Middle rack. Once baked. When you cut it open you see white sponge at the corner too much - meaning it’s over baked. Some oven is hotter so reduce the time by few mins -
Thanks for the video. Your recipe is fail proof Katie!
Quyet Tran awww Yayy Thankyou!!! For sharing
What is the size of your baking mould? Thanks
Sorry, just saw the message. Mine about 10- 12 cup .
Thank you for this recipe! I finally perfected this. I am planning to bake 2 of these for Tet. Would you happen to know if I can bake 2 at once or not? If so, would it be the same cooking time or longer? Thank you, and Happy Lunar New Year!!!
Sorry just saw your message, Yes you can bake them side by side :D I tried it and it was not a problem. :D
I'm very happy that you have perfect it Yayyy!!!

Thankyou☺️
My best favorite for dessert
Our family and friends too hihi
Hello Katie! I made your recipe and it came out so good! However, the crust was a bit flaky...I think maybe my oven is too hot. How can you tell when it is ready?
Yayy!!!!!! Usually at 55 mins baked it’s not golden yet - when turn off oven and still have it in there it gonna be golden. You can leave it in for 10 mins only or baked at 50 mins . If oven is hotter . 😇😍🥰
Oh and spray and brush the pam … so it will bake nicely and not flaky
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 I did spray the pan and the cake actually didn't come out after cooking outside 10mins. I had to use a knife. Maybe I spray too much oil? Most of it kept falling down to a puddle.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 ooh definitely something wrong with my oven... It was already golden at 55 mins. Okay, do you suggest lower temperature or shorter time?
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 and thank you for your quick reply!
Hi Katie
So the bag tapioca you used is 425gr ?
If I like to add rice flour should I take some out some tapioca flour ?
Thx in advance
That brand I used is 425g, but 400g is also common to find so I use that too. 25 g doesn’t make much diff . But 9 eggs will be softer vs 7 eggs more chewier and when it at room temp it become more dense due to ratio of eggs and tapioca :)
The rice flour , is an add on 2 tbsps, no need to minus the tapioca. I like 400g tapioca when I can get my hand on them.
This will be my fifth attempt!! All others blew up like a souflee and then fell flat and dense. Hoping this will work!!
You can !!!!just don’t skip and use big sieve :) good luck!!!
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 Made it last night! Came out perfect!
Awww Yayy!!!!!!!! Now you can be creative and make other flavors hihihi :) coffee with brown sugar is yummy too.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 I'm having friends over tomorrow. I find that the banh bo tastes better the next day since all the flavors have seeped and it doesn't taste too egg-y. Is it possible to reheat in the oven without drying it out?
Microwave for short min will be softer. And 7 eggs is more chewy .. if you like soy free add more eggs like 8/9.
Taste eggy? It shouldn’t. Do you use pandan paste and vanilla extract?
How should we store it after it's cooked?
We leave at room temperature. If 7 eggs it will be more chewy as it cool to room. if you like it softer you can use 9 eggs total. after a day it will still be soft.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you! I tried making it yesterday and it turned out great! I was craving this but they don't sell it in my area. Better than some of bakeries I've been to :)
Yes lots of market make it very dense not much of honey comb structure . Once you make at home you don’t want to buy anymore :) , my family like it chewy so I used 7 eggs, but 9 eggs is so yummy too

Sorry Nha response so late .. missed it
Hi again! If I have jumbo eggs, would I use 6 instead of 7?
Yes you can , even 7 eggs of the big eggs is good too. More egg give it more softer bbn. I used 9 eggs sometime too if I don’t want it to be too chewy :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 great thank you. We like the chewy!
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 hmm my cake still came out flaky and had to pull the cake out. I used a non stick Bundt pan and sprayed with avocado oil- does that matter?
The avocado oil is not butter. The pam one is butter so it tend to give it more smooth bc that’s all I used. Maybe try with Pam spray the original and see if it makes a diff. 😜
What brand of tapioca you used sis ?
I used diff brands from Asian market … the chicken on the bag, the Ong dia… or SF brand all made in Thai land. Just make sure it’s 400 g bags bc there’s a bag that is 425g? The. You have to wt it out… too much work 😂
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 sorry sis that I have to bother you again .. on your written recipe you wrote 400g of tapioca but on your vdo you said 425g prepackaged.. also eggs on your vdo you said 6 eggs but you actually cracked 7 eggs in the bowl ..! Should I follow written recipes or your VDO sis ? Sorry again sis 🙏🙏
Sorry I thought it was 7 eggs. Yes 7 eggs for chewy texture and in the recipe I also give the choice of 9 eggs for softer leave out longer
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you sister .. it was succeed for the try ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much for a wonderful recipe and great details..! I wish I can share my pictures with you on TH-cam 😃😃😃
Hi Katie, 1st time making it today and it turned out perfect. However, my Mom is saying it's a bit too chewy for her, so what can I add to make it not so chewy? Thank you!
300g tapiocas starch instead of 400 g and the rest use 100 g rice flour :) . Try that . :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 Thanks Katie, will try next time. My Mom will be happy! I need to stop eating all the carbs. :)
Brittney, try 9 eggs instead of 7 . it will be softer as it balance out the tapioca starch.
Can you give the recipe with the rice flour?
2 tbsp of rice flour :D
Can you substitute for cornstarch
Good question …. Never tried it before …. It might be ok …. I often use corn starch to thickened the soup just like using tapioca starch … might work ^____^ let me know if you ever try it :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you very much for your prompt reply,I baked it but failed,at first it raised very much,as soon as got out the oven it collapsed no honey comb but look like banh da lợn and very chewy ,please advise,thank you
After watching your video several times ,I have question why you need to cut the egg yolk? And you do not need to mix well the egg right?do you need to leave the oven door open during baking or after ,thank you for your professional advise .
@@mayphan2872 This honeycomb cake its not like other cakes. We don't want to whisk the egg , to avoid it we just separate a little by cutting the yolk.
Once baked after 55 mins - we open the oven door a little to introduce the room temp -trying to avoid shock from way too hot to cool room so I recommended to let it sit and continue to bake inside the oven with the remaining temp inside the oven as the surface will get more golden after 15-20 mins in oven with slightly door open. Noted, we only open once it baked 55 mins. turn off and open oven a little.
when egg over beaten - we will lose the honeycomb structure - and the pan needed to be preheated - once take it out pour the batter like in video as fast as you can and put it back in to bake.
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 thank you,I will try to bake again, wait for my good news.
I followed this recipe exactly, but my cake turn out eggy, brown and did not taste good. Used another recipe the prior time and it was great.
Aw I’m sorry you didn’t like it. I’m glad you able to find others that you like. :)
I have a Bundt pan that’s 21cm is that okay? Slightly smaller than the one u currently have
Yes, should be fine :D
Good Morning Katie, Did you receive my email with picture of my cake which was sent 2 days ago? I am really at my wits end , I just couldnt get the honeycomb texture. Where should I place the pan - bottom or middle layer of oven and should the oven be bottom and top fire
Does the pan need to be heated before baking, cause I came across a recipe that pan was not preheated with oven. It was greased with oil, batter poured in then put into oven to be baked. The ingredients were combined all together and the cake turned out well!!!!
I got your email and emailed you back .
Placed middle rack and for my recipe it’s need to be preheated. I can only tell you regarding my how I do mine Bc it’s works for me every-time and others. I can help you see what you do differently.
Have you receive my email? Let me know when yo I want to make one
Hi Katie, I am Esther from Singapore. Do you use the bottom fire throughout the baking process?
Hello Esther !!!! Yes , my oven is top and bottom.
What size bundt pan do you use? And also what did I do wrong if the bottom half (layer that becomes the top once flipped) has honeycomb structure but the top have is all congealed and looks like steam layer cake?
12 cup pan size. Could be the temp. Is true temp 350f and did you preheat pan in the oven for 15-20 mins before bake? Other than that usually mixing is not a problem for that. Let me know :)
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 i used an 8 inch bundt pan im guessing that was the issue as I did everything else as per your directions, if I split the batter between 2 8 inch bundt pans would I still cook for the same time or would it be for 35 min in the oven and 20 mins with door opened?
But you did bake for 55 mins with the small pan or 35?
@@katiefoolproofkitchen7482 i poured the whole batter into 1 8inch bundt pan and cooked for the entire time, I was just wondering for next time on soze and time.
I think mine could have been 8 inch. The common size when you search for Bundt cake pan. If you decided to split the batter maybe try 35-40 Bc this type take a while to cook. When it golden on top it’s ready to be turn off. So you can do that .
I use big sieve, I tried the tiny one and and made my cake bad. But I did the temp and the way I prep and preheat the pan. Once it out pour the batter into the sieve one more time and go around the circle . You should have the same result each time. I recalled some had heavy bottom . 1 pan is not preheated. 2 sieved .
I also use middle rack.
