Chiffon cake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A chiffon cake is a very light cake made with vegetable oil, eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, and flavorings. |
 | | Unlike butter, the traditional fat used in cake making, it is difficult to beat air into oil, so chiffon cakes, like angel cakes and other foam cakes, achieve a fluffy texture by beating egg whites until stiff, and folding them into the cake batter before baking. |
 | | Crocker proclaimed the chiffon cake to be the "cake discovery of the century." |
