Hurricane cake
Qi Feng, translated from English Chiffon. The word "Chiffon" refers to extremely light and soft silk fabric, so Qifeng cake, as its name suggests, has a dense and meticulous taste.

Qi Feng was created by American Harry. Becca invented it. He kept his invention a secret for twenty years until 1947, when the method was made public. This cake, as soft as silk and light as feather, has since become popular in Europe and the United States. It conquered the taste buds of Europeans after 1960, and later invaded Japan and Taiwan. In recent years, as Taiwan-funded baking companies have entered the mainland market, Qifeng cakes have become popular and have been warmly praised by Meimei people who love baking. The word Qi Feng is probably the most frequently used word in baking.

Qi Feng cake refers to a cake made by beating the egg white and egg yolk separately during production, adding air, and then sending it to the oven to be heated and expanded. Because the batter of Qifeng cake has more water content, the finished cake body structure is softer and elastic than other types of cakes. It is also rich in egg aroma and oil aroma, which is endless aftertaste. Qi Feng cake has a fluffy structure, high moisture content, light and non-greasy taste, and a moist and tender taste. It is one of the most popular cakes at present. What should be noted here is that the texture of Qifeng cake is extremely soft. If the same weight of whole egg stirred sponge cake batter is baked at the same time as the batter of Qifeng cake, the volume of Qifeng cake may be twice that of the former. Although Qifeng cake is very soft, it is elastic and does not feel soft and rotten. It is delicious when sprinkled with various sauces. In addition, Qi Feng Cake can also be made into various cake rolls, Boston pies, etc.
