Eggless tutti frutti cake recipe - Learn how to make soft sponge cake with tutti frutti in it.
This post is very special for me, coz this is the first cake recipe I am posting🎉.
My mom, MIL (also my ancestors)have never baked anything, also they don’t even know the ABCs of baking.
So for me to I am just blank about baking. Last year by this time,I have not even dreamt of baking a cake😵!
But now I find baking very interesting and even easier than my day to day cooking 😎!
I too was once thinking baking is something I cant even imagine,its a very difficult thing to try.
But now I got enough confidence to even encourage someone who is scared of baking like I was once😏!
But I should really thank Prathiba🤗,for clearing all my silly doubts, regarding baking, whenever I asked her in the beginning!
I took the recipe from here, with few changes I tried and was keeping my fingers crossed😅 until I had a bite from the cake. It was damn good!
My oven is a combination oven,which has three options- Convection/Microwave/grill.
Basically I use the microwave option in everyday cooking. And the convection mode for baking cakes,cookies and pizzas.
Still I haven't used the grill option. I don’t even have the manual for this oven, somehow just learnt the basics from online and managing to bake.
Please feel free to write to me or leave comments,if you have any doubts regarding baking this cake, I will try my best of my knowledge to answer you what ever I know.
Ingredients
Method
Mix all purpose flour, corn flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt well, in a large bowl.
I sift the flour to ensure even mixing.
Beat softened butter with sugar (I used fine grain sugar) in another bowl.
Add the egg replacer, condensed milk and vanilla to the beaten butter & sugar and beat again till smooth. (I used a hand whisk)
Add this to the mixed flour and mix well.
After that, add the soda water and mix well. (fold well, folding-mix with a spatula/ ladle in a same pattern, preferably from bottom to top always)
Meanwhile preheat the oven to 180 degree C.
Lastly add the tutti fruity and mix well.
Grease a baking tray with butter/oil (I used 6 inch round tray) and pour the mix in to the tray.
Bake for 35 minutes(keep in centre of the oven) or until the cake is done, you can check by inserting a knife.
If it comes out without sticking, clean then your cake is done!
After done,cool down in a wire rack and slice it and enjoy!

Recipe card
Eggless tutti frutti cake recipe
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All purpose flour
- 3 tablespoon Corn flour
- ¼ cup Tutti frutti
- 100 gm Butter
- 4 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- ½ teaspoon Baking soda
- ½ cup Condensed milk
- ⅓ cup Plain soda
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla essence
Egg Replacer - Whisk together
- 2 tablespoon Water
- ½ teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 teaspoon oil
Instructions
- Mix all purpose flour, corn flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt well, in a large bowl.
- I sift the flour to ensure even mixing.
- Beat softened butter with sugar (I used fine grain sugar) in another bowl.
- Add the egg replacer, condensed milk and vanilla to the beaten butter & sugar and beat again till smooth. (I used a hand whisk)
- Add this to the mixed flour and mix well.
- After that, add the soda water and mix well. (fold well, folding-mix with a spatula/ ladle in a same pattern, preferably from bottom to top always)
- Meanwhile preheat the oven to 180 degree C.
- Lastly add the tutti fruity and mix well.
- Grease a baking tray with butter/oil (I used 6 inch round tray) and pour the mix in to the tray.
- Bake for 35 minutes(keep in centre of the oven) or until the cake is done, you can check by inserting a knife.
- If it comes out without sticking, clean then your cake is done!
Notes
- My cake was bit crumbly. I think there should be some proportion imbalance between wet and dry ingredients or over mixing.
- Because of this, the outer layer of the cake was crisp and slightly hard. Keep it for a day and it will soften by itself!
- It stays good for 3 days at room temperature.
- You can use bread pan to bake or your preferred shape pan for this cake.
- You can omit the tutti fruity and bake it, it's the basic eggless sponge cake.
- I used condensed milk, but as the original recipe calls for evaporated milk, so you can try that too increasing the sugar quantity…Please refer the link for the original recipe.

What type of oil we need to use for baking? Groundnut oil can be used or coconut oil or olive oil
Raks Anand
Use Sunflower oil best. Coconut oil is next best option. Make sure to use a good quality one.

Priya
Hi raks,
I tried getting the soda water in an Indian store, but they had only the sweetened soda water, Limca.
So, can u pls tell me the brand that u bought and what is it called?...Also, are there any alternatives for the soda water?
RAKS KITCHEN
Priya I bought a brand called Schweppes,you can see in the first step picture....sure you can find in supermarkets,try and see,ask as club soda...
RAKS KITCHEN
This method I am not sure though,
Alternative for soda water you can try eno fruit salt(not the flavored) mixed with water,make sure u just mix it only when needed!

lovely cake, for a first time baker, and beautiful clicks too!!
Namrata
Hello, Cake looks lovely!
I have a question..in ingredients there is corn flour..is it like flour of corn(corn meal) or corn starch(something like arrowroot). I am doubtful because in India corn starch is also sometimes called corn flour..and I have never used corn flour in cakes only corn starch at times.
Thanks in advance.
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi Namrata,its not corn meal,its corn starch(it will be white in colour),not the yellow one..Hope this had cleared your doubt!
Namrata
Thanks for replying. Was wondering what temperature should be used..will 350 F be fine?
RAKS KITCHEN
Yes 350 F will be fine,I baked at 180 degree C... I had wrongly put 180 F its 180 C,I jus noticed,Thanks 🙂
monsa
Wow!!!!!Cake looking wonderful!!!
I'm amongst one of them who is scared of baking. never tried baking....
but really want to.
I'm having LG micro combi model (micro, grill & combi). Can it be used for baking? if yes, what temp. should i set for baking?
Plz reply.
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi monsa,
My MIL has the same model as you have,but I am so sorry you cant bake this cake in that mode. only if your oven has the covec mode,you can bake...This combi mode is the combination of microwave and grill mode.
Sudha
Hi Raji
Your cake is too awesome n mouth watering once we look it.In ur receipe u've mentioned egg replacer,wat is that egg replacer n also tel me wether we will be able to do in a cooker because im not having microwave oven.
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi sudha,egg replacer is nothing but the things we add in the place of egg,people who donot eat egg can use this proportion I have mentioned in any cake recipes. I found it in another blog...And this cake cannot be done in microwave or pressure cooker...only in a microwave oven with convection mode in it,you can make it. Otherwise you can make it in an OTG. I will soon post an eggless chocolate cake which you can try steaming. So stay tuned 🙂
mad
hi raji
actually i am confused about the time to be set for preheating the oven ana what time should be set after keeping the cake mixture inside te oven(my one is cornella electric oven)
pls respond
thanx
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi , You should pre heat the oven to 180 degree C also bake at the same temperature. For any baking,preheat temperature and baking temperature is same(as far as I know)
Usually if you set the temperature and start preheating,the oven will automatically set the time and stop/ gives a beep sounds after the preheat is done. Hope this helps..
mad
hi raji
the cake came out very well, it was my first cake
thank u very much
gunjan dixit
Hi, could you please tell your 1 tsp equals to how many ml? and similarly one tblsp to ml?
RAKS KITCHEN
1 tsp = 5 ml,1 tblsp = 15 ml
gunjan dixit
should I bake it in high power mode or less? what was the exact power mode you used?
RAKS KITCHEN
There is no such power setting in the convection mode,high or low power mode is only for micro wave(in my oven). Otherwise only you have to set 180 degrees in the convection mode.
gunjan dixit
hi again,
your 1 cup equals to?
RAKS KITCHEN
240 ml
RENU
hi raks
the cake looks great.if we want to add eggs how many eggs should we add?why we need to add soda water..when we r adding baking soda?is it good to make with egg or without egg?i will try this recipe....
Mamta
Hi Raks,
I'm planning to try this.Please help me whether the oven should be set to heat from all the sides?(from top,bottom,sides)??
RAKS KITCHEN
I am so sorry. I have no idea about the oven heating process in ur model. May be I will ask my friends and get back to you...
Mamta
My Oven is of SONA company.I brought it in Courts.
Unknown
Hey...looks awesome... should try it sooner.....i would like to know where you got the sift. I have been hunting since long and unable to find one. Please lemme know....
RAKS KITCHEN
I got this sift in IKEA
mou
can i use electric hand mixer for beating
Shwetha
Hi
I baked this cake today and it came out really well. In fact, I used the exact measurements and it did not crumble at all.
But I have a very basic doubt. When I baked the cake (or the last time when I baked the vanilla cake) the top kind of bubbled out. Now if I wanted to frost the cake, how is it done? Do we just cut off the top part to get it flat?
Thanks,
Shwetha
Varsha aka Rain
Hi Raks,
Have done this cake 3 times now. and it has come out well all the times. It is a hit at our home. Thanks for the receipe 🙂
Ekta Gandotra
when and how to use egg replacer
RAKS KITCHEN
Please read step 4
Ekta Gandotra
all the three items of egg replacer have to mix first or not.i have ifb 30sc2 model of microwave but all time i tried cake in it not results good.it doesnot cook at the bottom and gets over cooked at top.plz tell me wht to do
RAKS KITCHEN
You bake in Microwave mode?
Ekta Gandotra
hi raji
ur cske is vry nicely baked i hope i will try and also get the same result .plz tell me i have a bowl which has one cup capacity in it so wht will be the proportion of all ingredients
Ekta Gandotra
all items of egg replacer are to mix first or they are used one by one
Ekta Gandotra
no not in micro mode but in convection mode.in micro mode it results good but in convection mode it is always a flop.also tell me whn u bake cake would u cover it or not which type of baking bowl do u use
RAKS KITCHEN
Mamta, Middle rack should be fine to bake.Sorry for the late response...
Hi Ekta,
This egg replacer ingredients should be mixed first and added to the flour. And its always better to buy measuring cups to do baking. It will be handy. Or if you have kitchen scale, it could help. Or buy pyrex glass measuring cup, which has all cup measurements marked in it. Hope this helps....
Ekta Gandotra
hi raji,
i said i have small baking dish which can have only one cup batter in it.since ur recipe shows 1 and half cul maida so how can i get 1 cup maida+cornflour proportions for all ingredients.plz tell me shall i cover the cake dish while baking or not.if yes than with wht thing should i cover it.
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi Ekta, you can half the measurements. Say for 1 & 1/2 cup flour you can use 3/4 cup and so on. Just bake this cake using half the measurements.
Ekta Gandotra
hi
plz tell me shold i cover the cake or not and wht type of baking dish shud i use borosil or aluminium dish
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi ekta, You can cover the cake whiel baking to get it evenly baked without a burnt top. Use butter paper for that. And I would suggest the aluminium dish the best.
Ekta Gandotra
hello
and thanks vry much for ur sugestion hope it will work great for me
Ekta Gandotra
hello raks
can i use aluminium foil in microwave convection mode while baking a cake to cover it.
RAKS KITCHEN
I think butter paper will be perfect for it. Aluminium foil not sure...
vibhasri
Hi your cake looks really yummy and delicious. Nice one. I have a small doubt can you clarify it. Ive also bake tutty fruity cake but with a readymade cake mix. It turned out well but all the tutty fruity stuck to the base of the cake everytime i bake. I mixed it well before baking but still it happens everytime, so can you tell me what should be done to make it in between the cake?
RAKS KITCHEN
Vibha,
Try greasing the pan first with butter and then sprinkle some flour,say one or two tsp of flour and spread evenly. Then pour the batter and try baking. After baking is done, keep the pan over wet cloth for 10 minutes to cool down and then invert the cake. Hope this will work. Let me know.
vibhasri
Hi thanks for your immediate response. But my question was something different. The tutti fruity doesnt stick on to the bottom of pan but on the bottom of the cake. On your cake i noticed that it was on the middle of the cake. Hope you understand. Is there any tip on this?
RAKS KITCHEN
Oh, I dint read it properly, my bad 🙁
actually try dusting the tutti fruity before adding it to the batter.That is before adding the tutti fruity to the cake batter, add a 2 tsp of plain flour to the tutti fruity and mix so that the flour coats the tuitti fruity well. Then add it to the cake batter.
And I assume you are adding the tutti fruity at the end as mentioned in the recipe.
1bt
hi i want to know where can i get tutty fruity in US i checked with couple of stores like walmart target but i didnt get it can u pls suggest me the cake looks really yummy want to try
RAKS KITCHEN
Hi, I read these in some forums. But discussion was on 2008, so not sure if its still there. Still you can try there and in other Indian stores. Edison patel ,sabzi mandi - these were the places they had mentioned. Check this in baking section where they keep dry fruits. If you dont get tuitty frutti, then you can also try sunmaid mixed fruits. Though it has more of raisins, you can pick tuitti fruitti bits from that.
vibhasri
Hi raks i just came in to thank you for the tips you had given. I tried coating the tutti fruity with the flour and it turned out well. All the tutti fruity was in its place. Thanks again.
cheers to life
Hi i have a lg microwave oven, MH2347EB is the model.

Subadra
Hi...
Loved the recipe and tried it..it came out well...had a doubt and thought of posting it...the ingredients in the egg replacer will be the same irrespective of the number of eggs is is? I mean if the recipe requires 1 egg or 8 eggs I should make the egg replacer with the same measurements?
Raks anand
The egg replacer is for one egg, so if it asks for two eggs, you have to double it as well.
Subadra
Thanks so much !!
Kanchan
A long due bookmark, I prepared and posted this 🙂
Loved it :):)
vibhasri
Is that a tray in the picture where you've poured the batter or is it some thing else on the baking tray? If so, can you please tell me what it is and where to get it...( Im asking about the silver foil cup kind of a thing you have used)
Raks anand
Yes it's use and throw aluminium foil tray which can be lined over a baking tray. I got that in Singapore fair price

I dont knw wat hapnd bt i had used proper ingredients in proper quantity...dont knw hw such hapnd
Raks anand
Did you preheated the oven? Is your oven temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius?
Raks anand
Preheating should be done until the baking temperature reaches. usually the oven beeps when the temperature reaches in mine. Check you manual for preheating procedure.
rasri
hello raks you have a very simple way of explaining how the recipes have to be cooked. a small doubt is how do i measure 1/3 of a cup.
Raks anand
I have a cup that measure 1/3 rd. If you dont have, Take 1 cup, divide into 3 and take one part from that 3 parts.

Hi raks,
I'm new to cooking..just now started to experience a lot of dishes from your list.don't know the basic of baking cakes,cookies or pizza.can you please help me out which is the best microwave oven to buy for all these purposes and also advise me about otg.
First thing I notice is that before starting baking we need to preheat the oven to some particular temperature is that there is any time limit to set up with the temperature or it is just to preheat the temperature alone.
Raks anand
Please refer FAQs page.

Hi I tried it yesterday for the first time and it come out well..tks for the wonderful recipe...am very fond of tutti frutti cake...now I can prepare my favorite cake on my own..tks once again..but I have a doubt my cake is very soft and tasty...but when I cut the cake into pieces it's broken..can you pls tell what mistake I did.
Raks anand
Let it cool and be at room temperature for a day before you cut. This makes the outer layer soft and lets you cut easily. Dip your knife in warm water each time. This gives you neat pieces too.
