Ingredients You’ll Need
(Full measurements in the recipe card below)
DRY BASE
- • 2+1/2 cups maida — gives structure
- • 1+1/2 cups sugar — sweetness and browning
- • 1+1/4 tbsp baking powder — lift and rise
- • 2 tsp vanilla powder — bakery aroma
- • 1/2 tsp salt — balances sweetness
Substitutions
| Ingredient | Swap |
|---|---|
| maida | whole wheat flour for healthier option |
| sugar | coconut sugar for less refined |
| vanilla powder | vanilla extract in wet stage |
How to Make It — Step by Step
Sift Dry Ingredients
Sift maida, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl twice to aerate and remove lumps.
Add Sugar and Vanilla
Add sugar and vanilla powder to the sifted mixture and whisk well until fully combined and uniform.
Mix Thoroughly
Use a hand whisk or spatula to mix everything for 2 to 3 minutes so the baking powder is evenly distributed.
Store the Premix
Transfer the premix into a clean airtight jar or zip-lock bag. Label with the date and store in a cool dry place.
Ready to Use
When ready to bake, add eggs, butter, and milk to your premix and bake as directed in your cake recipe.
Tips for the Best Result
Always sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together at least twice to ensure an even, lump-free premix that gives you a soft and airy bakery-style crumb.
Vanilla powder is used here instead of extract so the dry premix stays moisture-free and has a longer shelf life without clumping.
Spoon the sugar into your measuring cup and level it off rather than scooping directly from the bag, so your premix has the right sweetness every single time.
How to Store
