Bake this cake for my mischievous nephew’s birthday. I surprised him with M&M mini chocolates in the cake. When I walked up to him, I told him I had a surprise for him. He grabbed the bag and saw what was in it. He jumped with joy when he saw there were M&M mini chocolates on the cake. He ate his dinner quickly, then hurried us adults to finish our dinner so he could blow out the candles and eat the cake. He asked his dad to cut him a big piece of the cake.
Google: “Egg replacer could be a commercial powdered product specifically developed as a substitute for eggs in baking, or it may be an ingredient or combination of ingredients that work to replicate the action of eggs in a recipe. Eggs, particularly the yolks, add flavour to baked goods, but powdered egg replacers do not, so they may not work as well for recipes that depend on an eggy flavour. Egg replacers are suitable for all baked goods and should not affect the flavours of the finished product.”
As the eggs price are getting higher, I thought I should try using egg replacer. Anyway, using the egg replacer, I had to add a lot of liquid. No bad, to try it using the ideas from google on how to use the egg replacer. But I also learned something better than the google instructions.
I am glad I had one orange left, that I decided to add to M & M mini chocolate. All my sisters ask me is it butter cake? Yes, it’s butter cake. This is a trial and error baking this cake with egg replacer and thank you, God; my cake is moist, colourful and delicious using the design cake pan. Let’s bake a surprise ingredient added into the cake, Shh!!!!

Ingredients
150 g unsalted butter
100 g salted butter
3 eggs
1 small orange, zest and juice
2 1/4 c self raising flour
1 c castor sugar
300 g sour cream
200 ml orange juice (bought)
100 ml water
1 Tsp egg replacer powder
2 Tbs water
1 1/2 Tsp baking powder
100 g M & M’s mini chocolate
20 M & M’s mini chocolate for decorations
Method
Preheat oven 160 degrees C. Grease design pan with flute well and set aside.
Beat both butter and sugar until pale and creamy. Gradually add eggs one at a time. Beating well each addition. The third egg crack into a bowl, add 1 Tsp egg replacer and 2 Tbs water, beat well for 20 seconds. Then pour into the batter and beating well, after adding it. Now add in sour cream, beat well until combined.
Sift flour and baking powder straight into the batter and fold through along with zest, and juice from orange. The batter is not looking batter consistency so I had added 200 ml orange juice and 100 ml water. Making sure batter is cake consistency by mixing all the dry and wet ingredients.


Once batter looks good batter consistency, spoon some batter into prepared pan, sprinkles some M & M’s mini chocolate over the batter. Then spoon some more batter over, and sprinkles the remaining M & M’s mini chocolate over and lastly the remaining batter on top, smooth the top. Bake for 1 hour or until skewer out clean. Switch off oven, leave cake in oven for 35 minutes with door close. Remove from oven let it cool completely in pan for 1 hour. Then flip it over onto cake plate mat. Let it sit for about 1 hour or just before serving decorate the cake with 20 M & M’s mini chocolate. Slice and serve with coffee, tea or dessert wine. Enjoy!!!!!
