Cakes tend to have a heavier texture than expected if the recipe isn't followed correctly. Some of these factors include an ingredient being off. For example, if there was too much baking soda in the recipe, the cake would be dense as a result. Also, whipping the cake batter too much will cause it to become tough after done baking.

Why is all your cakes is too heavy?

Depends on what you mean by this. Cakes are heavy because they're supposed to be big. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When making a cake it is important to follow the recipe EXACTLY - make sure that the recipe you are using is OK by following one from a book (sometimes hand me down recipes have mistakes in them). If you do this and your cakes are still heavy then check the temperature of your oven (get an oven thermometer).
