Directions For the cloud cake: Pre-heat a low-fan convection oven to 300°F. Then, whisk in 80 grams of sugar, plus the egg yolks and the lemon juice. Make the French meringue: In a clean, separate bowl, whip the egg whites on medium speed. Fold the French meringue into the mix. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.
That’s why we prefer chocolate cloud cake, which uses air beaten into egg whites to make a cake that is both taller and more interesting in texture — the top rises in the oven and then falls slightly as it cools, becoming tender-crisp, while the edges bake into a chewy cake-like texture and the center remains a dense layer of pure chocolate.
This Japanese cloud cake uses a made-from-scratch yogurt (it’s easier than you think!) that requires just two ingredients: organic dairy milk and yogurt starter culture. The yogurt adds a gentle tang, while the French meringue gives this light, fluffy cake its signature airy texture.
Enter, cloud cake. Now, people are sharing their cloud cake recipes on TikTok that take the OG cloud bread to a sweet new level. At its core, cloud cake — or “clouds cake,” depending on who you ask — is very similar to cloud bread.
