Select cup. You can use any cup to make cakes. Large and deep cups will produce soft sponge cakes, small and shallow cups will produce harder cakes.
Mix baking powder. Put 2 tablespoons of brown sugar or honey in a cup. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence and then 3 tablespoons flour.
- You can use regular flour if you don’t have pre-mixed flour, but the cake will have a brownie-like texture.
Crack the eggs into the cup. The advantage of making cakes in cups is that you don’t have to clean up much, you just need to throw the eggshells in the trash.
Add butter. Soften the butter then scoop 1 tablespoon of butter into the cup. You can use peanut butter or salted butter or margarine.
Add 1 tablespoon or 2 tablespoons of chocpate chips (optional). Chocpate chips will add flavor to the cake cup. If you like vanilla cake, you can add 1 tablespoon of vanilla essence instead of chocpate chips.
Mix the ingredients well. Use a spoon to stir the ingredients in the cup. Stir until the chocpate chips are mixed or the ingredients are well combined. Don’t worry about the ingredients sticking to the rim of the cup because the cake will also expand when put in the microwave.
Bake. Put the cake cup in the microwave for 50 seconds on the highest setting. After 50 seconds, check if the cake is done by inserting a toothpick in the center of the cake. If the toothpick doesn’t stick, the cake is done. If the toothpick is stuck with a thick paste, continue to microwave the cake every 30 seconds until the cake is done. [1] X Research Source
- Be careful not to bake the cake for too long. Because if left for too long, the cake will be dry. You should not bake the cake for longer than 2 minutes.
- Don’t worry about the toothpick leaving a small hole in the cake, you won’t see it when you cover the cake with a layer of icing.
Let the cake rest. Microwaves generally do not provide consistent heat like ovens. Let the cake rest for 1 to 2 minutes after baking; This way, the heat will spread evenly into the cake cup.
Enjoy. Use a spoon to scoop the cake. If you want, top with icing and decorate the cake.
- Be careful when taking the cup out of the microwave. Use a pot lifter or towel to remove the cup as it will be very hot at this point.
Bake a whole loaf in the microwave
Mix the flour. In a large bowl, combine 3/4 cup softened butter or margarine with 3/4 cup sugar and 2/3 cup flour. Stir well with a plastic spatula or spatula.
- You can use regular flour if you don’t have pre-mixed flour, but the result will be a brownie-like texture.
Add remaining ingredients. Pour 3 tablespoons of milk. Crack 3 medium sized eggs, add 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence.
- You can use whole milk, fat-free, 2% milk, or any other milk you like.
Add flavor to the cake. For chocolate cake, add 1/3 cup cocoa powder. For vanilla cake, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence.
Stir ingredients. Use a fork to stir or use a mixer to mix for 4-5 minutes or until smooth. If you have a blender, you can put all the ingredients in the blender in about 60 seconds.
Scoop the dough into a microwaveable glass baking tray. Remember not to use a metal baking tray in the microwave.
- A shallow baking tray will give better results.
Bake. Put the cake in the microwave on the highest setting for about 3-4 minutes. The cake will bubble and swell in the microwave just like it does in the oven. As soon as the cake gradually deflates (although still slightly puffy), it means the cake is done. [2] X Research Source
- Check if the cake is done by inserting a toothpick in the center of the cake. If the toothpick doesn’t stick, the cake is done. If the toothpick is stuck with a thick dough, continue to microwave the cake 1 minute at a time until the cake is cooked.
- Be careful not to bake the cake for too long. Because if you leave it in the microwave for too long, the cake will be dry.
Enjoy. Eat the cake while it is still warm, the cake will be soft and very delicious. You can add icing and decorate the cake if you want.
Cover and decorate the cake
Choose any frosting you like. You can buy pre-made ice cream or make your own at home. Try chocolate, vanilla, lemon or whatever flavor you like. Try different flavors to find your favorite.
- Be sure to let the cake cool before coating it with sugar because otherwise the sugar will melt.
- Don’t make too little frosting. It’s okay to make a surplus, it’s better than a shortage when you haven’t finished decorating the cake.
Cover the cake with cream. Leave the frosting at room temperature. Use a rubber spatula or spatula to evenly coat the entire surface of the cake.
Decorate the cake with fresh fruit. Cut fresh strawberries into thin slices and place on top of the icing randomly or in any shape you like. Or spread seedless jam on the cake. [3] X Research Sources
- You can replace strawberries with fresh mango, banana or any other soft fruit you like.
- Fresh fruit should be used for decoration last. If the fruit is still wet it can cause the cream to melt. [4] X Research Sources

Sprinkle colored nuggets. Colored nuggets are also a way to add color to the cake. You can also add some colored nuggets to the batter before baking.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/06/Make-Cake-in-the-Microwave-Step-21-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Make- Cake-in-the-Microwave-Step-21-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/06/Make-Cake-in-the- Microwave-Step-21-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Cake-in-the-Microwave-Step-21-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Decorate with candies. Add some marshmallows on top of the cake for extra sweetness. Then sprinkle some more sugar on the candy for decoration.
Add chocolate. If you want to add some extra deliciousness to your chocolate loaf, cut up your favorite chocolate bar and sprinkle it on top. You can also sprinkle chocpate chips.
Cover with grated dried coconut. Coconut can be used for baking or for decoration. Coconut sprinkles will be better than sugar or candies and still beautiful when garnishing. Spread a layer of cream on the cake then sprinkle with coconut.
- Coconut has a mild taste, so it can be added to a wide variety of cakes, from light flavored cakes like vanilla and lemon to fatty cakes like chocolate and carrot cake.

Cover the cake with seeds. You can cover the entire cake, from top to bottom, or sprinkle some seeds on top.
- If you’re making a chocolate cake, a sprinkle of sweet pecans is delicious.
Advice
- Using the microwave will not make the surface of the cake a golden brown like the oven. If you make vanilla cake, the cake will be slightly pale in color. You can add a few tablespoons of cocoa powder or coffee powder for a nice color. [5] X Research Sources
- To finish baking in the microwave, always remember to let the cake rest for 1 or 2 minutes. This allows the heat to spread evenly throughout the cake.
- The entire prep, baking, and cleanup time took about 20 minutes. That means you have plenty of time to enjoy the dessert you’ve made.
- Buy some mugs and give them to friends with a delicious cake in them.
Warning
- The microwave will get very hot so be careful when removing the cake.
Things you need
- Bowl for mixing dough
