Notes

1. Custard powder is a good alternative for people who want to avoid eggs.
2. Use demerara sugar instead of normal sugar ,colour will change.
3. The top and bottom slightly browns up giving it a golden yellow in the middle.
4. Adjust sugar as per taste ¾ to 1 cup .
5. The custard flavour gives a very nice flavour to this cake.
6. If you don’t have custard powder just substitute it with cornflour + vanilla essence + yellow food colour and it gives the same result.
7. I made this cake in my natives where I did not have any baking equipments – I used steel tin ,instead of butter paper used greased magazine sheet ,used bowls instead of measuring cups.
8. You can reduce 1/4 cup oil and replace with milk.
