Best, Lightest Sponge Cake Recipe – Best For Layered Soft Cakes

Best, Lightest Sponge Cake Recipe – Best For Layered Soft Cakes

This is by far the Best, Lightest Sponge Cake recipe ever!!!  I have made the cake countless times now and the results have always been amazing. It is so light a perfect for cakes the use whipped cream fillings with nuts or fruits. The recipe is for a 9 INCH ROUND – four-layered cake, which would yield a large 2 kg Cake, once filled and topped. You may also halve this recipe for a smaller cake, using 5-inch pans. I swear by this recipe which is the same sponge as used in my older and popular Sponge cake with whipped cream and fruit filling recipe here.

I also love this recipe, because you can just use cup and Tbsp measures without weighing everything and it turns out fine! My cup is standard US size where 1 cup=240 MLS. I use average size eggs.

Several of you needed just the sponge cake recipe, hence I have added it now, along with the Video. Do let me know if you try it!
