Can you use extra large eggs instead of large to make a cake?

Answer 1

Usually, a medium to a large sized egg is used for baking cakes. However, eggs are not vegen. A vegen cake should either skip the eggs (if possible), or find an egg substitute to put into the recipe.

Answer 2

in egg there is no different big or small, same taste only egg will give in every recipes

A different response:

In the U.S., most recipes assume that large eggs will be used. The difference in the completed product will be minimal if medium or extra-large eggs are used. If only small or pullet eggs are available, add an additional egg for every 2 eggs called for in the recipe. Add one egg white if only one eggs is called for.

Alternatively, a Tablespoon of oil and two tablespoons of water could be added to make up for the volume of small eggs.

Answer 3

Large eggs (hen) are most commonly referenced as they are the median size of egg according to sizing by the American Egg Board, at approximately 24 ounces per dozen or 2 ounces per egg. It should be noted the the differences in size change by 3 ounces per dozen for each size. (by weight)

P (pee wee) = 15 oz./doz.

S = 18 oz./doz.

M = 21 oz./doz.

L = 24 oz./doz.

XL = 27 oz./doz.

Jumbo = 30 oz./doz.
