We both( Mishu and I)love paper-lined sponge cake that sold in any Chinese bakery due to the reason it's have soft,smooth and moist texture.I'm was searching for paper-lined spongy cake recipe online but most of the recipe need cake emulsifier or it's called as ovalette. At last I found one recipe online that no ovalette needed..Of course without cake emulsifier the texture of the cake is slightly different but it's still not bad at all..You must wonder what is cake emulsifier ,right? You can check the information HERE!!Well ,it's hard for us who live in Western world to get cake emulsifier at retail store..unless you own your bakery store or a professional baker who can purchase large quantity of this product from suppliers.Anyway,I found this recipe without using cake emulsifiers HERE! The method of making this cake is similar with chiffon cake.If you know how to bake chiffon cake,baking this paper-lined cake is as easy as ABC!

I like this kind of cake too, can I not to line parchment paper , just use paper cups?
So fluffy and soft!
They are more like a chiffon rather than sponge, aren't they?
What a great idea to use the paper cup as mould !!
Lesley, I love this type of cotton soft cake and will buy one or two each time I shop at the Asian store here. I tried making it once but it didn't turn out well at all. It was like kuih. Don't really know what went wrong. I have to try it again and this time use your recipe.
Your sponge cuppies looks great. It is kind of hard to acahieve the soft cottony texture and I don't like to use emulsifier or ovalette :) but yours really turned out great.
nice, looks tempting too. I must try it someday...by the way, you are so talented..everyting also can do..heheh.

I think you can use papercup if you wanna to but it's won't be as high as the name said paper-line cupcake..
Angies:
oh yes,the recipe as similiar as chiffon cake,right?
mycookinghut:
I think for this cake when
we bake at home ,paper cup is ideal since we can find tall mould or pan unless you have popover pan..
Icook4fun:
Gert,mine version is still not really light as cotton ..Did you get cake emulsifier back from Malaysia? I'm thinking of asking the bakery store here for cake emulsifier but
then again I think they might not sell it to me.Said I leceh! haha!
Elin:
Thank you for your kind words:)
I know some ppls don't like to used emulsifier or ovalette but for me I don't even have the chance to buy emulsifier or ovalette here..I guess it;s individual prefer..I think some cake or bread need emulsifier or ovalette in order to acheive the cotton spongy texture..

mana ada talent...but thanks anyway for your kind words.♥♥♥
For a second there, I thought you only had a sweet tooth! :) But then I saw the shrimp....great blog.
I had tried this from another "simple" recipe and it was a big FAIL! Thanks for posting more detailed steps - as an absolute amateur I had no idea what I was doing so this is very helpful! When you say "corn flour" - is that more like a corn starch or a corn meal?
Hi Lesley, can I add in raisins or chocolate chips in this sponge cupcake?
hi, how are you, love your blog, may I ask a question ? I if making cupcakes in paper cups are safe to bake in oven, are the coffee paper cups that you drink like the starbucks one safe to bake cupcakes in oven, am scare that my oven will be on fire; here is a example
