Ingredients

Preparation procedure

  • Preparing the batter: Beat the eggs with the sugar until pale, fluffy foam. This step is key to making the sponge light and airy.
  • Combining the ingredients: Gradually fold the flour mixed with the baking powder into the egg mixture. Beat everything with a mixer until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
  • Baking: Pour the finished batter into a greased and floured pan or onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for about 25–30 minutes, until the cake is golden and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
  • Finishing: After baking, let the sponge cool. Then you can fill it, spread with cream, pour chocolate over it, or simply dust with powdered sugar.
