You don't HAVE to, Angel Donn, but it ensures the two dry ingredients blend together evenly. Sifting the all-purpose flour also keeps the cake's texture light and fluffy.

Hi, fatoom bajaber - You may store flour in a glass jar or glass container. If you don't use flour often, we also recommend storing it in the refrigerator.

Thank you for your question. A 9 inch square or round pan would work great here. Happy baking!

Hi thanks for your question. We used unsalted butter for this, so we can adjust and control the amount of salt as needed. Enjoy!

Great question, Samantha. There are a few ingredients in this recipe that make this cake off white - egg yolks, butter, and vanilla. To make the cake more white, you could use clear vanilla extract and a substitute for the egg yolks (perhaps an egg replacer). Let us know how that works out for you.

I've made this cake 6 times already just for a snack after school. I added milk until it was smooth instead of the amount it gives you. I've also learned that the outside cooks MUCH faster than the inside, so it's always a little crispy

Hello, Danish khan - Yes, you may omit the vanilla extract, but the cake will lose it's lovely vanilla flavor. As a substitute, you might use maple syrup, vanilla-flavored milk, vanilla sugar, or scrape out the seeds of a vanilla bean and add them to the cake batter. If using a liquid, replace with the same amount.
