Why Cloud Cake Just Put Everything in the Blender Works So Well

Blender mixing creates the perfect texture

Cloud Cake just put everything in the blender works because blending fully emulsifies the eggs, sugar, milk, and oil. This creates a smooth, airy batter with tiny bubbles that expand beautifully in the oven. Unlike hand mixing, the blender incorporates air evenly without overworking the flour.

The result is a cake that rises evenly, stays moist, and has that signature cloud-like crumb.

No complicated techniques

There is no creaming butter, no whipping egg whites, and no folding steps. Everything goes into the blender in stages, which makes this recipe ideal for beginners and experienced bakers alike.

Cloud Cake just put everything in the blender removes the fear factor from baking and replaces it with confidence.

Ingredients That Make This Cake Special

Eggs

Eggs provide structure and lift. When blended with sugar, they become pale and foamy, which helps create the light texture.

Sugar

Granulated sugar sweetens the cake and helps stabilize the batter. It also contributes to a tender crumb.

Milk

Milk adds moisture and softness. It keeps the cake from drying out and balances the richness of the eggs and oil.

Oil or melted butter

Oil keeps the cake moist for days. Butter adds richness. Both work well, depending on your preference.

Flour and baking powder

Flour gives structure, while baking powder provides lift. The key is blending just until smooth once these are added.

Vanilla and optional citrus zest

Vanilla adds warmth. Citrus zest brings freshness and brightness without overpowering the cake.

How to Make Cloud Cake Just Put Everything in the Blender

Blending in the right order

Start by blending eggs and sugar until pale and airy. This step builds the foundation for a fluffy cake.

Finally, add flour and baking powder. Blend just until combined. Overblending at this stage can reduce fluffiness, so keep it brief.

Baking to perfection
