Frequently Asked Questions

What Makes An Eggless Cake Fluffy?

A majority of cakes will rely on eggs for that fluffy texture. However, you can replicate this without eggs. You can use mashed bananas, applesauce, vinegar with baking soda, yogurt, tofu and so on. There are plenty of alternatives.

Why Is Condensed Milk Used For Eggless Cakes?

Sweetened condensed milk can act as an egg in some recipes. And if you want to cut back on sugar, condensed milk is often sweet enough for the entire cake, you do not need to add in extra sugars.

The richness of it also helps in moistening the cake, which combats cocoa powder, which is a drying ingredient. It helps to balance out the cake’s texture as a whole.

What Can Be A Substitute For Condensed Milk In An Eggless Cake?

If you do not want to have condensed milk in your eggless cake, you can add around 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to one cup of non-dairy milk and let it sit for 5 minutes before you add it into your recipe.

It might (or might not) curdle like dairy milk, however, homemade dairy-free buttermilk alternatives serve their own purpose in many recipes.

Do Egg-Free Cakes Taste Different?

These cakes will mostly taste the same, whatever the flavor. In a chocolate cake, the chocolate will usually overpower it, and you won’t notice it. However, it does depend on the recipe.

To Conclude

Just because you don’t eat eggs, doesn’t mean you can’t have a delicious slice of chocolate cake. These recipes make it super easy to enjoy a delicious cake, worry free, with all that chocolaty goodness you dreamed of.
