Chiffon cake was invented in 1927 by an insurance broker named Harry Baker in Los Angeles. The interesting thing is that his last name means baker. This cake was sold to high-end restaurants and introduced to Hollywood stars at the time and became popular, but he himself kept the recipe secret for 20 years. It wasn't until 1947 that Harry Baker sold the recipe to Betty's Kitchen. Since then, it has taken the world by storm and is especially popular with ladies. Chifeng means lightness and softness. "

Tips:
Note ⚠️1. The egg yolk paste should be fully emulsified until there is no oil star floating, and do not over-mix to avoid gluten in the batter.
2. The egg whites should be sent in place, in a state of upright and small sharp corners, and remember to send them too far to avoid defoaming.
3. When mixing the egg white and egg yolks, be sure to stir, do not stir in a circular motion to avoid defoaming.
