Good one, for a long time I wonder what is cake flour…. I thought may be for maida they use this term, now u clarified that doubt. Very easy and nice to know new thing.
# Whether we can do the same with wheat flour? Is it possible? Just an idea to reduce maida, any other flour can be replaced
SHARMILEE J
I am really not sure whether it will work with wheat flour, you can try and see

Can we use this home made cake flour for any cake recipes that ask for APF?
SHARMILEE J
No all purpose flour is different from cake flour I think

Sorry for asking again Sharmilee
If a particular recipe uses 1 cup APF then can we use this(above mentioned) home made cake flour (1 cup) instead of that particular recipe's 1 cup APF?
SHARMILEE J
No cake flour is different from all purpose flour.All purpose flour is just plain flour(maida) as I believe so cant be replaced for cake flour

Hello, Are you using cornflour or cornstarch for the cake flour ? Most of the cake flour recipes that I have read say use cornstarch. Could you please clarify.
