Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A
Eggless madeira cake recipe.
What am I doing wrong as mines aren’t cooking fully even after 3 hours. Should I just be using victoria sponge tins or a higher temp. Cake is also rock hard on top. I have used egg sustitute. My ti.e is running out.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pamela
Apologies for such a late reply. I do hope you managed to find a solution for your eggless cake problem. I use the white wine vinegar and baking soda method for baking eggless cakes and initally use a higher temperature for the first few minutes to ensure a good rise. Personally I find egg subsitutes work better on smaller cakes and cookies. The use of apple sauce or another soft fruit and also xanthan gum helps to make a softer sponge. I have a simple egg free recipe in my blog here:
… and anothe member blog on ‘free from baking’can be found here: https://www.cakeflix.com/beginners-guide-to-vegan-baking
I hope these will help for future eggfree baking and again apologies for not being help on this ocassion.
