Marble Cake
Marble Cake pictures (1 of 5)

Ever since I set eyes on Annie’s marble cake post, the image of her rich, buttery, chocolaty marble cake has made quite an impression on me. Annie is a superb baker and she once shared her aunt’s butter cake recipe with me that had me oooh and ahhh for the delicious great taste. I know her marble cake recipe will not disappoint.

I baked my marble cake with mini loaf pans because I love things small and cutesy looking. The batter makes four (4).

The recipe is copied directly from House of Annie. It’s a tad long, but Annie gives detailed and useful instructions when it come to baking. If you love cakes, this marble cake recipe is a sure-fire keeper. Try it out, it’s worth it.

    This takes me back to those marble cake slices I used to eat when I was in primary school – the ones that cost about 60cents from places like Honey Bakery. I have a craving for it now, aah! Will have to make this after I make the curry puffs I am also craving for! :P

    (On a completely unrelated subject) – Speaking of bakeries, have you ever tried the milk bread and cinnamon buns from Continental Bakery?

    • Yes Su-Yin, they were always wrapped in plastic, I remember too. I love marble cake.

      Where is Continental Bakery? I am in Irvine, CA, USA.

        Is chocolate marble cake considered a traditional Malaysian dessert? I have a daughter doing a school project and wanted to make sure she wasn’t overly influenced by her sweet tooth in her selection of a traditional Malaysian dessert. Thanks for your help.

    Wow it looks delicious! I love marble cake. I am still on my diet program now. I can only eat my first dessert in December. My plan is to have a small piece of cake. I think I will eat marble cake. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Bee! I didn’t know you had made my marble cake! Hope you liked it. I just made it myself a few days ago. What a good idea to make small loaves. I was wishing I was back in the US so that I could buy that Nordic Ware mini bundt cake mold so I could make tiny ones too. Thanks for the link.

  5. I have recently baked this too. Unfortunately, I fit everything into my loaf pan and it was too big! The outside was already cooked way before the inside was done…. So it ended up with a rather dry crust. I will love to make them again in minis. May I know how long it took in the oven for the minis?

      Hi Mrs Ergul,
      I am sorry you had a bad experience. I think I did warn people that this recipe makes a very big cake so if you are going to use a loaf pan, it’s best to split it into 2 regular loaf pans or in Bee’s case, 4 minis. Hope you will give it another go.

      • Sure I will give it a go again! Maybe I will just halve the recipe because the full recipe really makes a lot and it turned sour before we even manage to finish half of it. I was saddened to have to trash it.

    This looks awesome! I’m always in search of a good buttery cake recipe. Is this the more compact, buttery type than the soft fluffy type? :)

    I always wanted to bake a cake but never been successful. I was wondering if this cake is easy to make? Also, since this one is made for 4 mini loaf, do you think I can make a quarter of recipe? One more thing can you explain how to test the cake? cake tester? TIA

    I made this cake over the weekend and it really is delicious. I used sour cream instead of yogurt and large eggs instead of x-large and it came out fine. With the batter, I was able to make 4 mini loaves AND a dozen cupcakes. The cupcakes were done in about 20 min and the loaves about 45. Since I’m pregnant, I had to make sure I didn’t eat it all, so I have been giving it to friends and they all LOVE it! So thanks to you and Annie for a great recipe.

    I’ve been making cakes for years, always the sponge or oil version. I could never make a butter cake as it always rose perfectly in the oven but fell when taken out. This is the first butter recipe i’ve made perfectly, the cake was fabulous not only in taste but the texture was light and fluffy. I can’t tell you how pleased i am to have found this recipe. Now im going to let my imagination run wild and see what else i can come up with.
