Eggless Marble Cake Recipe | How to make Eggless Marble Cake – Vini’s

Eggless Marble Cake Recipe – According to Wikipedia A marble cake is a cake with a streaked or mottled appearance achieved by very lightly blending light and dark batter. It can be a mixture of vanilla and chocolate cake, in which case it is mainly vanilla, with streaks of chocolate.

According to Vinipedia

A soft and spongy cake sure to please the chocoholics and vanillaholics (you know what I mean).

Let’s talk about Eggless Marble Cake Recipe

When I decided to make a marble cake, I started searching for a good recipe. And as I searched I found one thing common in many recipes. The resource of the recipe which was Divine taste by Anushruti.

Anushruti, for sure is one of my favourite food bloggers, especially when it comes to baking recipes. There are many recipes of hers on the YouTube channel Rajshri Foods and believe me, those videos are a treat to the eyes and ears. Right from the cookware that she uses to the background music, everything is delightful. Anyways, I had no second thoughts about trying her recipe. So this recipe is from Divine taste by Anushruti.

The recipe calls for hot water at two stages. This is said to play a very important role in giving the cake its moistness.

The cake is complete without any glaze or frosting, so I have skipped that part.

The original recipe called for dividing the batter into two halves, flavouring one with cocoa powder and another with vanilla. However I divided the batter into 1/3 and 2/3 flavouring 1/3 with cocoa powder and remaining with vanilla. I did not do this because I don’t like chocolate much, seriously, believe me. I did this because I feel this gives a better marble effect.

Other eggless cake recipes here are eggless tutti frutti cake, eggless coconut cake, eggless chocolate truffle cake etc.

The Beauty Eggless Marble Cake Recipe

The blend of flavours is the beauty of this recipe… rather cake. As they say… we bring to you the best of both the worlds.

This cake is born beautiful. Needs no makeup, as in frosting or icing. Once the cake is out of the oven, the celebrations can start. This cake suffices to put on the party mode.

And the Beast (the difficult part about this recipe)

(Disclaimer: The points here are common for all the cakes and are repeated in all the cake posts)

Each cake recipe is a beasty recipe. As in if you go a little wrong somewhere you don’t get a perfect cake.

• You could end up with a cake that doesn’t demould easily or you might just break the cake while demoulding. Oops!!
• The texture of the cake can go wrong. And by wrong I mean it could go anywhere between very soft to very dry.
• The cake might turn completely non spongy.
• The cake might sink/ have a dome/ have cracks.

And the list is endless… believe me.

Experience and experiments (tips and tricks)

Here is the list of the dos and the dont’s of baking a cake.

Let’s just talk

“Necessity is the Mother of Invention”

Whenever I bake a chocolate cake, I am not happy and whenever I bake a vanilla cake or any non-chocolate cake for that matter, Amy, my nine-year-old-daughter, is not  happy. So that’s how this mother (ME) was introduced to the other mother (NECESSITY… necessity to bake a cake that can please both Amy and me). And then the other mother (NECESSITY) introduced me to her beautiful child – The Marble Cake. And then I introduced her child, The Marble Cake to my child, Amy. Then we three lived happily thereafter.

Hope you know what I meant!!
