Modifications Made Following Your Feedback and Tests:
some subscribers tested the recipe by reducing the sugar and baking powder, and the result was very good.
I used sugar 350 g of sugar (12.5 oz) and 4 x 7 g baking powder because the cake is really big. These are the proportions for 2 cakes. However, since they tested the recipe by reducing the sugar to 250 g (8.8 oz) and using only 14 g (0.5 oz) of baking powder with very good results, you can do the same.
What can I use instead of yogurt in this marble cake?
I love using flavored yogurt in this cake, but you can substitute it just as well.
You can replace it with 2 empty yogurt pots of orange juice or drinkable yogurt.
