Hi Peng
I followed your recipe however my cotton cheese cake turn out to be dense cheese cake not cotton soft at all.
Could you advise me where i might have gone wrong?
Hi..make sure the whites are beaten till firm peak. Fold in whites into the cream mixture, do not overmix as it will deflate the air in the whites which will cause the cake to be dense.

Hi Peng,
How to keep the water at 160 deg cel??
Hi, bake at 160 deg cel with tray of warm water under the cake pan.
Hi Peng

Hi...u can either use a 8" cake pan or abt 3 disposable loaf pan to fill up the batter.
Thank you, Peng.

May I know if the recipe can do without cream of tartar? what happens if I do not use it? or what can replace it with? Tks.
you can replace it with lemon juice
Hi Peng, I baked this cake this evening. It turned out to be a huge success! I must say you are one of those few unselfish bakers out there who genuinely willing to share your techniques to the fans. I tried some of your recipes, I followed exactly what you wrote, and all turned out fantastic!
By the way, is this a chilled cake? Do I have to put in the fridge overnight? Thanks.
