A cake typically requires a structure that can trap air and create a light, fluffy texture, which is usually achieved through gluten in wheat flour. Corn and potato starch lack gluten, resulting in a denser, more crumbly texture. While they can be used in gluten-free recipes, cakes made solely from these starches will not have the same rise or texture as traditional cakes made with wheat flour. Instead, they often require additional ingredients to mimic the properties gluten provides.
