It uses similar ingredients to a chiffon. Yet yields a completely different texture that is more moist and airy with tinier air pockets that really reminds of cotton candy. My chiffon cake did not rise properly. My chiffon cake sank/deflated after I took it out of the oven. You cannot use a non-stick pan to make chiffon cake as the wall is too slippery for the batter to cling to the sides and center of the chiffon cake pan in order to.
