Just tried this recipe and it turned out so good!! I love the texture and the crumb of the cake. Will definitely be making this again for hari raya! Since i halved the recipe and used a 7x7 baking pan, had to extend the baking time to about 1 hour+. I kept to the 45min at first since the stick test was clean but realised the cake was sinking in the middle after it cooled a bit so i put it back in the oven 😅 Nonetheless, all was good and it was still very delicious. Thank you so much for the recipe!

May I know how many egg did you put for 7" Square? At what tempreture did you bake for 1 hour? For 7" Square, you half the ingredients right? Tq

[@ShiokmanEddie]

@ Tan Liu Hun, I have not bake in a 7 inch pan with this recipe before. Maybe you can try half the recipe like you said and baking temperature should be the same except shorten the time. Sorry you need to experiment yourself.

[@poofiepics]

@@tanliuhun1418 Yup, i halved it so 7 yolks and half of the remaining egg whites by weight. Same temperature but definitely keep it in the oven for at least 1h. Since ovens can be different, you will need to check your cake after, just don't keep it for too long or the cake will be dry. I had to cover top of my cake with aluminium foil since it got brown fast. But cake came out really yummy, my grandma approved haha

Do not keep the sugee butter mixture in the fridge. Cover and leave it at room temperature for the the sugee to slowly absorb the butter.

Hi Eddie, Good Morning And thanks so much for sharing this almond sugee cake recipe, I tried it many times now and every time it’s a hit as I share with my family and friends. I want to ask you if I were to make an orange almond sugee cake from this recipe, how do I go about it? Thanks.

[@ShiokmanEddie]

Good morning Rani, thank you so much for your feedback 🙏😊 As for Orange Sugee cake, I've not try making one. I guess you can try adding orange zest but if you want to add juice then you probably have to reduce the eggs. Not sure what is the actual amount, sorry. Safest way is to just grate about 2 to 3 orange zest and add to the batter without affecting the cake texture much.

[@leeleansee5546]

May I suggest soaking some of the pan fried suggee with two to three table spoons of orange juice plus of course also add some zest ?

[@cynthiasammy3668]

Wat do you do with the egg whites

[@thevavalu22]

In your opinion what icing/frosting would go well with this cake. Basic buttercream or royal icing?

[@ShiokmanEddie]

I would say royal icing but I rather have it without any frosting.

[@sharonpriscilla995]

Good day Eddie Im planning to use a 9 inch baking pan. Please advice me on the measurement that i should use. Thank you inadvance 🙂

[@ShiokmanEddie]

The problem with keeping in the fridge, the butter will hardened. Maybe after it has soaked for at least 4 hrs, then you can keep in the fridge but you need to thaw it until it becomes soft again. I've not tried leaving in it the fridge.

[@brendad5558]

Eddie, I tried the recipe (halved the ingredients as the original cake was too large) and although it was good I need some advice. I notice that the texture of the semolina is rather pronounced (it's kinda crunchy). How do I make it "softer"?

[@ShiokmanEddie]

If you prefer a finer texture, use almond flour instead of finely chopped almonds. Also you can let the Semolina soaked in the butter for a longer time so that it will absorb the moisture from the butter and becomes softer. Actually, this cake is suppose to be a bit crunchy.

[@brendad5558]

@@ShiokmanEddie I did use Almond Flour. The issue is the "crunchiness" of the semolina. I'll take your advice though and let it sit in the butter longer. Thanks so much Eddie!!

Normally it's due to the cake is under baked. Sounds like your actual internal oven temperature is incorrect. Try bake a little longer until the center portion is firm. You may need to cover the cake with baking paper if it turns dark too early.

Hard to tell. Could be over baked like you said or oven temp too hot. Also maybe need to soak the Semolina in butter longer. You can also use almond flour instead of finely chopped almonds. Maybe kampong eggs a bit small. Many factors can cause it.
