Whip the eggs
Put 2 egg whites into a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat on low speed until the eggs form bubbles like soap.
Divide 60g of sugar into 3 parts, gradually add each part one at a time and beat until dissolved. Beat each part of sugar for about 30 seconds on low speed before adding the next part.
When adding the last part of sugar to the eggs, switch the mixer to high speed, beat the eggs until they are soft and fluffy, with creamy streaks, and the mixture is sticky, shiny, and smooth. Lift the whisk to form peaks that droop down, and it’s ready.
Finally, add 2 egg yolks into the whipped egg mixture and continue to use the mixer to blend the mixture at low speed.
Note:
- Divide the sugar into 2 or 3 parts and add gradually bit by bit. Avoid adding all at once.

Bring the spatula down to the bottom of the bowl, push the heavier ingredients up and fold them over to the side. Continue this action until the mixture becomes smooth.
Note: You should not stir or mix too vigorously as this will cause the small air bubbles to burst, resulting in a cake that does not rise after baking.Next, put 25ml of unsweetened fresh milk and 25g of unsalted butter into a new bowl. Then, place this bowl into a pot of hot water to melt the butter.
Next, take a little of the cake flour mixture that you just mixed and add it to the melted butter bowl, then stir well to combine.
After that, pour the stirred butter mixture back into the cake flour bowl and continue to mix evenly by folding the mixture together.
