✨ This isn’t just a cake. It’s a cloud of comfort. The Blueberry Yogurt Cloud Cake is soft, creamy and gently sweet — a dessert that feels indulgent but behaves like wellness. From the first bite, you’ll taste the tang of yoghurt, the richness of eggs and the burst of fresh blueberries. It’s baked without flour, oil or sugar — yet it delivers texture and flavour that rival any classic sponge.
The batter comes together in minutes, with just three core ingredients and a handful of berries. It’s poured into a small pan, topped with fruit and baked until golden, puffed and lightly set. The result is a cake that’s tender in the centre, slightly crisp at the edges and dotted with juicy blueberries. It’s light enough for breakfast, elegant enough for tea and wholesome enough for everyday indulgence.
🍰 Let Every Slice Melt With Creamy Yoghurt And Juicy Blueberries
Whether you serve it warm or chilled, it holds its shape beautifully and slices cleanly. The yoghurt gives it a creamy tang, while the cornstarch binds everything into a custard-like crumb. It’s naturally gluten-free, low in carbs and high in protein — ideal for those seeking balance without compromise. You can customise it endlessly, but the base is pure simplicity.
The blueberries add colour, moisture and a gentle sweetness that complements the yoghurt perfectly. You can use fresh or frozen, and even swap in other fruits. This cake is perfect for brunch, light dessert or a mid-afternoon pick-me-up. It’s the kind of bake that feels like a hug — soft, warm and nourishing. So grab your whisk, line your pan and let’s bake something that’s light, lovely and full of goodness. 🍰🫐✨

🍰 Blueberry Yogurt Cloud Cake – Light, Creamy, Berry-Kissed Delight
👨🍳 How to Make It (Step-by-step)
✔️ Mix The Base Ingredients
In a bowl, combine yoghurt, eggs and cornstarch.
💡Use room-temperature yoghurt for smoother blending.
✔️ Whisk Until Smooth
Whisk the mixture until fully combined and silky.
💡Avoid over-whisking — gentle mixing preserves texture.
✔️ Fold In Blueberries
Gently stir in ½ cup of blueberries.
💡Use a spatula to avoid crushing the berries.
✔️ Prepare The Pan
Line a 6-inch (15 cm) round pan with parchment paper.
💡Grease lightly for easy release and clean edges.
✔️ Pour In The Batter
Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan.
💡Tap the pan gently to release air bubbles.
✔️ Add Topping Berries
Scatter ~20 blueberries on top for visual appeal.
💡Press lightly so they nestle into the surface.
✔️ Bake Until Set
Bake at 170°C (340°F) for 50–55 minutes until golden and puffed.
💡Centre should jiggle slightly — it will firm up as it cools.
✔️ Cool In The Pan
Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
💡Avoid moving too soon — it’s delicate when hot.
✔️ Chill Before Serving
Refrigerate for 2 hours for best texture and flavour.
💡Cover loosely to prevent condensation.
✔️ Slice & Enjoy
Cut into 6 slices and serve plain or with toppings.
💡Use a warm knife for clean, smooth cuts.
