Ingredients You’ll Need
(Full measurements in the recipe card below)
DRY
- • 1 cup cake flour — base structure
- • 1/4 cup cocoa powder — rich chocolate flavor
- • 1/2 cup sugar — sweetness
- • 1 tsp baking soda — leavening agent
- • pinch of salt — enhances flavor
WET
- • 2 cups mayonnaise — replaces butter, oil and eggs
- • 1/2 cup water — adjusts batter consistency
- • 1 tsp vanilla essence — adds depth

How to Make It — Step by Step
Preheat and Prep
Preheat oven to 180C. Grease and line a 7 inch round cake tin with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients
Sift cake flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl and whisk well.
Add Wet Ingredients
Add mayonnaise, water and vanilla essence to the dry mix. Fold gently until a smooth lump free batter forms. Do not overmix.
Bake
Pour batter into prepared tin. Bake at 180C for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Cool and Serve
Let the cake rest in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing or frosting.
Tips for the Best Result
Full-fat mayonnaise gives the cake a richer, moister crumb. Low-fat versions can make the cake dense and dry, so do not substitute them here.
Stir the batter just until the dry ingredients are incorporated. Overmixing activates the gluten in the flour and results in a tough, rubbery cake.
Cocoa powder tends to clump, so always sift it with the flour and salt before mixing. This ensures a smooth, lump-free batter and an even chocolate flavour throughout the cake.
How to Store
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you can use all-purpose flour, but the cake will be slightly denser. For a closer result, replace 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour per cup with cornstarch.
Yes, the mayonnaise acts as the egg replacer in this recipe, providing moisture, fat, and binding without any added eggs.
Yes, you can use coconut sugar or jaggery powder in the same quantity as a less refined alternative, though the colour of the cake may deepen slightly.
A dense cake is usually caused by overmixing the batter, using expired baking soda, or not measuring the flour accurately. Always spoon and level the flour rather than scooping directly.
