Tips:
1. When adding egg liquid, it must be a small amount several times, otherwise it will be easy to separate oil and water
2. How to judge whether the cake is cooked or not? Use a toothpick to insert it from the top of the cake. After taking it out, there is no wet batter, which means the cake is ready.
3. The temperature of the cake should be low rather than high. The temperature of my finished picture is a bit too high, so the top is a bit burnt
4. When brushing the sugar water, brush it while it is hot, it won’t go in when it is cold, brush hard, don’t be afraid
5. After brushing the sugar water, it is best to leave it for a day before eating, if possible, it can be left for 2-3 days, it will be more delicious
