does this have a wine taste?
how do i make this cake for all yr round ensuring it is still light and fluffy
There’s really no clean swap to make this recipe using regular flour without testing it. Generally speaking,find a tried and true sponge cake base recipe, such as https://www.kosher.com/recipe/never-fail-sponge-cake-7229T
anything to swap the Manischewitz Cake Meal with? dont eat that on pesach
You can try potato starch, ground nuts or a combo of both.
is it possible to make without wine
Naomi says she never tried it any other way, but orange juice might be a possible alternative.
