How do you make sure the whipped cream doesn’t squeeze out? Mine squeezed out a ton. Whipped cream always seems like a difficult way to fill between layers.

In reply to Kevin. Hi Kevin! If you cut the recipe in half, it should work for 3 8-inch pans. Happy baking!

Do you have a scaled down recipe for this Cake? I want to make it but that is way too big a cake for a normal family function.

Just using 3 9 inch pans.

thanks,

In reply to Sara Scarborough. Hi Sara! It depends on the flowers. You can get special florist tape for the ends, which is what Zoe used. Or wrap the ends with plastic wrap. You can also use edible flowers, or you can put a protective layer on top, if you’re using a ton of flowers. Do some research and make sure you’re avoiding poisonous flowers as well. Cheers!

I’m eager to make this! Do you need to put a protection layer of some sort down before placing fresh flowers on top?

Thanks,
Sara

In reply to sheryl. Hi Sheryl, This is a great question. Every outlet (network, publisher, etc.) has their own style and we need to match it. This recipe was developed for Zoe Bakes on Magnolia Network, so we match the style for the network, which is 130g per cup. If you do use a scale to weigh your ingredients, you shouldn't have any trouble using the grams on Zoë's recipe. Let us know if you have any other questions!

if a cup of flour weighs 120 grams, than shouldn’t it say 390 grams? this has happened to me in other recipes, and it confuses me

Just made your incredible cake – thank you so very much for the recipe.
I used 1/3 quantity, in a single 24cm Chiffon tin, and sliced it into 2 layers.
(I made 1/5 of the whipped cream and 1/5 of the buttercream.)
I love the flavours and the surprise of biting into the honeycomb hidden in the cream.
I love chiffon cakes and I will def make this one again.
Thank you again.
