Can I make this cake without an oven?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1771\" data-end=\"1889\">Yes! You can bake the cake in a <strong data-start=\"1803\" data-end=\"1845\">covered pan on the stovetop (low heat)<\/strong> or use a pressure cooker (without whistle).<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"12gyot7\" data-start=\"1896\" data-end=\"1942\">\ud83d\udd38 2. Can I use store-bought cake instead?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1943\" data-end=\"2017\">Absolutely. A plain sponge or vanilla cake works perfectly and saves time.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"n0scbp\" data-start=\"2024\" data-end=\"2062\">\ud83d\udd38 3. Why is my custard too runny?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2063\" data-end=\"2181\">You may not have cooked it long enough. Keep stirring until it thickens properly. It also thickens more after cooling.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1bo59sh\" data-start=\"2188\" data-end=\"2228\">\ud83d\udd38 4. Can I use frozen strawberries?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2229\" data-end=\"2286\">Yes, but thaw and drain them first to avoid excess water.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1lhlmu8\" data-start=\"2293\" data-end=\"2332\">\ud83d\udd38 5. How long does this cake last?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2333\" data-end=\"2422\">It stays fresh in the refrigerator for <strong data-start=\"2372\" data-end=\"2384\">2\u20133 days<\/strong> when stored in an airtight container.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1gmfzxr\" data-start=\"2429\" data-end=\"2463\">\ud83d\udd38 6. Can I add whipped cream?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2464\" data-end=\"2565\">Yes! Adding a whipped cream layer between the cake and custard makes it richer and more bakery-style.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1nse45q\" data-start=\"2572\" data-end=\"2601\">\ud83d\udd38 7. Why is my cake dry?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2602\" data-end=\"2702\">Overbaking or using too much flour can make it dry. Stick to the exact measurements and baking time.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"ct8qyv\" data-start=\"2709\" data-end=\"2742\">\ud83d\udd38 8. Can I use other fruits?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2743\" data-end=\"2808\">Definitely! Mango, kiwi, blueberries, or mixed fruits work great.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"hi19qp\" data-start=\"2815\" data-end=\"2859\">\ud83d\udd38 9. Do I need to chill before serving?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2860\" data-end=\"2931\">Yes, chilling helps the custard set and improves the taste and texture.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"4nmjr0\" data-start=\"2938\" data-end=\"2977\">\ud83d\udd38 10. Can I make it ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2978\" data-end=\"3053\">Yes, it\u2019s actually better when made a few hours ahead and chilled properly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83e\uddc1 Ingredients \ud83d\udd39 For the Cake 2 cups all-purpose flour 3\/4 cup sugar 3 eggs 1\/2 cup milk 1\/2 cup oil 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 tsp baking powder A pinch of salt \ud83d\udd39 For the Custard 2 cups milk 2 tbsp custard powder (vanilla flavor) 3\u20134 tbsp sugar 1\/2 tsp vanilla extract \ud83d\udd39 For [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5050,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5049","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breakfast"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5049","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5049"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5049\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5050"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5049"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5049"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ajkerbazardor.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5049"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
