Jess, your chiffon cake is just perfect! Nice shape and no cracks~~ It does look more rich and dense in texture, but I bet it must be very fragrant. -drools-
Thanks for sharing.
Jet thanks lol but the no crack part is pure lucky you see most of time my chiffon tops will always crack! only 0.01% wouldn't crack! i am still trying to find the video on unmoulding a chiffon cake! i want to share with all of you gimme some time to find it!
I steamed my gula melaka chiffon and definitely want to try this one. Looks good and definitely fragrant :)
Ann you steamed?? but i never seen this post on your blog will you be posting it anytime soon?

hanushi thanks!! hehe!
It looks so perfect! I would like to have a piece, please!
thanks litte inbox, please do help yourself! =D
Jess,
Maybe a small pinch of baking soda will make it softer. The gula melaka could be too acidic and cause the cake to feel, dense. The baking soda will neutralise the acidity of the palm sugar.
I did my own version of this before and mine was soft, just like my other chiffon cakes.
Oh my, your chiffon looks perfect! With the gula melaka and coconut milk, must be very fragrant, nice!
wendy, ah now i get it! thanks for your advise!
bee hehe thanks it is fragrant indeed!
Gula Melaka and coconut makes all cakes extra yummehhh
I can imagine the fragrance of this gula melaka chiffon cake ..... would certainly like to have a small bite!
Looks perfect and soft! I never have much luck with chiffon cakes...that's why i've been staying away from it hehe.
i can imagine again the aroma from the gula melaka and the coconut..just like your previous cupcakes..hey, you will get your neighbours drooling..
I looove chiffon cake and this looks so good. Though folding in egg whites is still a little tricky for me. I can just imagine how good that smells and tastes!!

Your chiffon looks flawless. Saw lots of comments about making it less denser...very interesting.
I made this chiffon before (but not in my blog) and turned out well too. Generally, I find that this recipe and book is quite good.
Jess, your chiffon looks perfect, I can any time eat a few slices at one go heeheehee...
Zoe thank you! yup the books by Kevin Chai are good!
Jess lol thanks ah! please help yourself!
Lots of good reviews on Kevin Chai chiffon book. I tried baking his banana chiffon and was quite nice. Love to try out this recipe too, yours look moist and nicely brown! Great job!
Your cake looks so inviting, need to go and check if my gula melaka sufficient or not.. hehe
我有座过这个，很香：）
你的脱模得很美哩：）
Do you know that I've never made a chiffon cake? I must fix this! Thus looks fantastic :D
Soft, spongy, and smooth---A wonderful chiffon!
Yea, gula melaka one is a good variation to the usual chiffon flavors ... Make sure to use "unadulterated" gula melaka though ... Get those produced in the Malaysian state of Terengganu or Melaka! Quality, pure one melts even at room temperature!!!
