Hokkaido chiffon cupcakes 北海道牛奶蛋糕





When i first saw this nice cupcake liners in the bakery ingredients shop, i know it will perfectly for making Hokkaido chiffon cupcakes. I did this cupcake before, but this time i replaced the non-dairy whipping cream to dairy whipping cream for the filling. I made the right choice, dairy whipping cream gave very milky taste and perfectly match with this light and soft chiffon ..I will make this again and again.. And this is also perfect as a gift to given out to friends and relatives..

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Gert, i use instand custard powder, and even normal custard powder also can be eaten without cook it but with small amount..

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Angeline, you can just push the pipping tip in the center of the cupcake and pipe the cream till fill up to the top.

Lite Home bake, just follow the recipe and i am sure you can get the same result..Happy trying!

QembarDelites said...

Shereen said...

Hi Sonia,
Lovely cupcakes. Can you tell me what is instant custard powder.Is it any difference with the normal custard powder?Would you mind putting a picture of the said instant custard powder...I mean the box or packet of it.Thanks for sharing.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Shereen, I am not able to show you the packing as I bought it as loose pack, the shop repack from original into smaller packing. Thus there is no brand on the packing . From the look, it look no difference from the normal custard powder. But this instant custard,, we just add water then stir till become custard paste.

Sissi said...

I don't know what is more amazing: the cupcakes or the cupcakes liners... Both look gorgeous and together they make a perfect gift, as you say.

lena said...

sonia, what a coincidence! i also ate these hokkaido cakes last sat and they were using the same paper liners too, very pretty!

Malay-Kadazan girl said...

Anonymous said...

Wow, they look so lovely. Will definitely bookmark this to try it out. By the way, may I know the nozzle size used to pipe in the cream?

PeiNing said...

Hi Sonia,

I tried twice.. but still dun seems to be able to get the right texture.. it shrinks a lot.. and seems to e more moist..

Any tips for me?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Corinne, maybe due to high oven temperature or over beaten meringue, try to reduce the temp and see how..there are many reasons behind a failed baking, so i could not tell you what the exact reason..

Vivian said...

Hi Sonia,

i've tried to bake twice this cupcake, the 1st time is a bit dried due to overbake and the 2nd time is better cos is soft! but i have problem with the cream. it seem the cream cannot get to the bottom of the liner. it only half. Any way to push the cream deep inside. and when is the good time to pipe the cream. straight from the oven or wait until it cold down?

Unknown said...

Hi Sonia,

Can I know if the corn oil could be substituted with butter (melted)??

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Vivian, actually you just need to pipe till middle will do and start to pipe when cake is completely cool down.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Beverly, should be ok but I afraid it will taste buttery and heavy, but not light .

e-DressMart said...

Hi Sonia,
Do we use caster sugar or icing sugar for both the chiffon and filling recipe?
Anyways, yours looks absolutely lovely!

Sakura Lily said...

Hi Sonia,

Can you use regular cupcake liners or do they have to be box?

Thanks!

Sally said...

Hi Sonia,

Can I use instant pudding instant of custard powder. Also, can I use vegetable oil instant of corn oil?
Thanks.
Sally

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

e-dressmart, I use both with fine granulated sugar.

Sakura lily, yes, you can use any paper liners. But the real Hokkaido chiffon is in square box.

Sally, yes, you can replace with both as per what you suggested.

I used EMBORG whipping cream but no matter hw it just can't get stiff n firm. Do u know y? :( Btw 60g whipping cream is the same as 60ml right?

Anonymous said...

Hi Sonia,

If this is kept overnight or more than a day in the fridge, would the cake turn soggy with the cream?

Hi Sonia,
I am looking at your cupcakes here again as it is so beautiful baked! I like yours where the top is nicely brown and most of all, it is "cracked" up so nicely and make it easily to pipe in the custard. How did you do that I wonder? Really, I like yours so much better.

Where can I buy the liners? Looked online with no luck. Do you sell them yourself? I want to try making these, and I want them to look just like yours.

Hi Sonia,

I have been following your blog for quite a while, very interesting and wants to thank you too for always sharing with us.
I recommended your blog to my sisters & friends and they like it!

Plan to try this nice cupcake this weekend but have some silly questions since I am still a beginner.
*Can I use non-stick cupliners?
* Should I rest the whipped cream to room temperature first before beating?

Thanks again for sharing nice recipes...

Liliana

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Liliana, Thanks for your support. To answer your questions:-
1. Try not to use non-stick cupliners, we need a wall for the sponge cake to climb up..
2. No, remove whipping cream from fridge and immediately beat it over a bowl iced cold water..do not rest in room temperature.
Hope this helps.

Esther Lau said...

Dear Nasi lemak lover, may I check with you the cake flour mentioned in your recipe is it same as superfine flour?
Tq and looking forward for you reply. Esther

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Esther, yes, they are the same.

Hihi! thanks to your recipe for the chiffon cake, my chiffon cake rises! the 1st attempt was sad, I see from another recipe, they did not even rise and looks like kueh bo lu though they still taste as nice haha :D

I made these this morning and found I only got 8 serves. Mine rose beautifully and baked for 25 minutes...when I took them out ofnthe oven they dropped...not sank...but dropped markedly. I am wondering what size eggs did you use?
Any help would be appreciated... Thanks.

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Cakebaker, I use large egg, it should drop a bit.

cakebaker_cakemaker said...

Hi Sonia, thanks I will use a larger egg and see if it makes a difference...loved the taste and lightness of the cakes.

cakebaker_cakemaker said...

I'm happy to say that I re-made them and they didn't drop quite as much but not as lovely as yours. I am about to pipe the cream/custard in the morning and wonder what size piping tip did you use?

thanks.

Hi hi hi

I just tried this after reading it last night!
I followed the temp but after 25 minutes I still don't get a crack top nor nicely brown like yours.

Should I have bake longer but I was afraid it'll be over baked and hard:(

Then while cooling it sinks ! Should I have over turn the cakes on wire rack?
HELP!!

祖云 said...

Hi Sonia, I've tried ur recipe n it's really good. Thanks for sharing. A small question here, do I just add in the custard powder to the whipped cream or I have to mix the custard powder with water to make it a paste before mixing with the cream? Thanks .

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Jovnne, Yes, just mix instant custard powder in the cream.

Dear Nasi Lemak Lover:

I'm a new blogger(bake). Thank you for sharing this recipe! I have tried it and glad it really turned out well

Stoney Liew said...

Hi Sonia,
I done this just now. It turns out really well when it was out of the oven and tastes really fluffy. I straight away put the cakes into the fridge to cool down. When I took it out from the fridge I found that the texture was completely different as it was very compact (not fluffy anymore) and there is where I faced the problem of pumping the cream in it....

Should I let it cool in room temperature instead in a fridge?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Stoney, you have to cool in room temp first then pipe the cream, and cool in the fridge before consume..and this cupcake will slightly shrink after cooled.

Yong said...

I've tried it, but how come it is not as soft as sponge?

Pris, maybe next time you can drop some vanilla essence.

Valerie, yes, you can omit completely..

shirley said...

I've just made this Hokkaido chiffon cake today with the 2nd attempt. 1st attempt I did the strawberry version but did badly on the whipped cream part. It was watery as the puree was not thick.

Today I did well, but the whipped cream filling I made it to 120g instead of 60g. I find tat it is very hard to estimate how much to pipe out for every cake. I whipped 60g, but was too generous to the cakes & ended up half of them without whipped cream, hence hv to make it to 120g. Using the pipe was another problem as the amt of whipped cream too little. Better to scoop. Probably next time I filled up my muffin cup to make up 6-7 cakes instead of 9.

Hello Sonia:) I faced the same problem as Cathy where my cake did rise but the bottom is dense and not fluffy at all. What actually caused this to happen?

Hi Sonia,

For beating eggs white, don't need to put in any cream of tartar or lemon juice to stablise the eggs white?

Thanks
Barley

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Barley, it is ok without cream of tartar or lemon juices if you are able to beat the meringue at right stage. otherwise no harm to add tartar and lemon juices .
