    I have 2 questions. When you said wheat flour, do you mean all purpose flour or whole wheat flour? Most recipe for this cake calls for yeast, yours is baking powder. Is this single acting or double acting baking powder? Thank you for your help.

      Hi Alex Yang, Sorry for this late reply. Would you please detail more what you made when steaming? I think we can have 2 problems here. Firstly, you do not choose the exactly flour what I used or Secondly, did you absorb water every 2 minutes when.
