Maybe also because you did not cover the cake with mousse? If you reduce the baking time, the sponge cake may be under cooked.Happy Homebakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15310704979379806678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-88954625936525204182010-04-30T15:22:00.284+08:002010-04-30T15:22:00.284+08:00hi HHB,

The sponge cake part was fine. This was my very first time making a mousse cake. So I really don't know whether my mousse was in a correct form. It was not semi-liquid at all. Its actually solid. It wouldn't drip to the sides when I poured it onto the cake. Do you think it was too much gelatin (I followed Florence's recipe, which say 17g)? Or I over whipped the cream so it was too stiff?<br /><br />Unhappy Amy :-(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-53075624228420820722008-12-10T22:51:00.000+08:002008-12-10T22:51:00.000+08:00Hi lil'goon, you can always make a chiffon cake, i...Hi lil'goon, you can always make a chiffon cake, it's a matter of preference.
