hi yochana,
i did try normal baked lapis cake.the problem is when i turn the whole layer cake,the batter all poured out.juz to clarify with you,i preheat the oven 150degrees for 15mins,then i put in my baking tray of batter,the skin has darkened,inner part not cooked yet.how? i realized the oven i used(new rowenta oven)baked v fast,inner not cooked.what should i do? i am upset dat it turns out like that.
Hi anonymous,
150C is too cold for baking. I suggest you use at least 170C. Grill the lapis layer by layer. Every layer, you use a skewer to prick onto the cake and press lightly and if some of the batter oozes out, then it's uncook. Put back into the oven, cover with an aluminium foil and continue baking till cooked. You have to time yourself and see how long it takes to get one layer cooked. It's important that every layer has to be cooked before you pour in the next layer otherwise you'll get a whole piece of lapis uncooked and the batter will ooze out and leak all over. Keep trying...don't give up.

Hi Lucy,
When baking Lapis do I have to press it with the lapis press. I read a blog it mentioned that. Please help.
Cheers.
Sophia
Hi sophia,
Yes , you can buy the lapis presser. It comes in either a rectagular shape or one-sided round shape. Price the surface with a skewer then lightly press with the lapis presser on it. The idea is to make sure the cake sticks to each other.

Hi Lucy,
Just finished baking this Lapis Cheese Cake half an hour ago. The taste is great!
BUT any idea why my layers are not as clear as yours? Did I not bake enough for each layer?
I did made sure every layer was cooked before I proceed, is the timing that makes the difference?
One of the layer actually had a bubble in the center, how can I make sure the layers will be smooth and even?
Thanks,
angeline
Dear Angeline,
As long as your lapis is cooked and taste heavenly, don't care whether it's clear or not. For every layer , try using a satay stick to prick on it and then use a lapis presser to press out the air. Sometimes a little bubbles here are there are unavoidable. I sometimes do have them too. So don't worry...it's normal.
rgds
Hi Aunty,
Thanks, will try get the lapis presser from PH and try with the Pandan Layered Cheesecake.
My colleagues all had good comments on this recipe.
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Angeline, keep up the good work.

Hi Aunty Yochana
My oven has no individual temperature control for the upper or lower heat. Do I need to increase the oven temperature while grilling or still remain at 170 to 180C?
Rgds
HSL
HI HSL,
for lapis cake, first layer use top and bottom heat till turn to grill (top heat only) and grill all the layers one by one till finish. It is a must to use grill for lapis otherwise if you use oven heat the bottom half of your cake is going to more brown and dry and they normally bounce on top if oven heat is applied.

Hi Aunt Yochana,
I tried this Lapis Cheese Cake over the weekend. The result was simply good! I followed your instructions closely, and even followed those in the comments. It's really good. But my layers don't stick together and a bit moist. Does it help if I put it in the fridge? Was it because I didn't "grill" long enough? But the top was really black liao. :p Thanks for your attention.
Hello there,
May I know which model of baby belling you're using? I'm thinking of getting an oven but I'm extremly confused. I'm thinking about the new baby belling model or Rowenta, do you have any opinion on this? Did you leave the window open to make this lapis cake?
Thanks for answering my questions
Hello there,
May I which model of Baby Belling you used? What's your opinion on Rowenta and the newest Baby belling with the glass window. Did you leave the door open while making the lapis cake?
Thanks so much for answering my questions
Hi,
I have 2 baby belling and they are about 25 years old and still going strong. What model is that huh? I also don't know leh.. Now babay belling has glass windows? Wow..that's really tempting. Mine has no glass door.
Rowenta? I'm so sorry I've not used it before.
rgds
Hi anonymous.
Baby belling is really good for Lapis. I used the grill to bake and leave the door open (3/4 way).
rgds
where did you buy you belling oven? reply to me at chloe_yong@hotmail.com

Hi Chloe,
I bought mine 25 years ago. I saw it once in an electrical shop in Jalan Kayu, next to Thesevi roti prata shop.

Hello aunty yo,
got a few questions..
1) if i wanna make normal lapis, do i omit cream cheese?
2) so i first use top and bottom heat to bake the first layer, then subsequently turn to top heat? and when i'm done with all layers, turn to top and bottom heat for 15 mins?
3) lastly, how do i agar the thickness of each layer? scared spread out too thin.
thanks aunty yo, in advance! :D
Hi Elaine,
(1) use a lapis recipe without cream cheese like lapis speckok.
(2) correct
(3) each layer about 4 to 5 Tbsp. of the batter depending on the size of the cake tin. Or u can weigh the batter for every layer.
rgds
aww. thanks aunty yo!
do u hv speckok in ur recipe box though?
Yes Elaine, the lapis speckok recipe is in the cake index.

hi Aunty Yo,
i'm interested to try out this recipe but i only have conventional microwave oven at home. could i use it to bake this cake? pls advise.. :)
hi jenjen,
I've never tried using a microwave oven..so can't comment.
rgds
hello,
is your baby belling the white color one? can i know the temperature for both the right and left of the oven? coz mine the no. is all gone and i dunno waht temp it is..pleassee help.
Hi anonymous.
The left is for the grill , turn the knob horizontally and it'll be around No. 4 whereas the right hand side is the oven temperature and if the knob is horizontally straight, then it's about 175C.
I hope we are talking about the same model.
rgds
Hi Aunty
I'm Elaine, I lov baking cakes, and I'm so happy to find your web. I got a question abt 1 of your recipe Lapisan Cheese cake, I would like to know the oven temperature for baking this cake, can u tell me?
thanks......:-)
HI,
Use 175C to bake.
You need to use grill for grilling each layer.
rgds
hi aunty yochana,

I've not tried steaming this, so I cannot comment.
So sorry.

Hi, I'm really new to the baking world..and planning to try on this recipe .. But I don not understand some of the terminology.. What does it mean grilling? Does it mean jus leave in oven for certain time?
hi newbaker,
grilling - use top heat.

I was recommended to your blog by some frens. Im really amazed and impressed.
BTW, I tried baking the lapis cheese cake today and it turned out really well. FYI, I omitted the rum but added some lemon zest. The taste was superb!

Hi syl
1 egg yolk = 20 gm
1 egg white = 40 gm.
1 egg = 60 gm.
the rest you have to use a calculator.
