Hello everyone and I’m so excited to share one of my all-time favorite secrets: how to achieve the perfect sponge cake. You know that feeling when you slice into a cake and it’s just right—light, fluffy, and delicately sweet? I’m going to let you in on my trick.
The key is threefold: proper egg-whipping technique, consistent folding, and the right oven temperature. First, make sure your eggs and sugar are whipped until they turn pale yellow and triple in volume. This step traps air, giving you that airy texture. When adding the dry ingredients, be gentle—fold them in slowly, as if you’re comforting a dear friend. Never overmix! Finally, always preheat your oven and bake at a steady, moderate temperature. If your cake starts to brown too quickly, lightly tent it with foil.
Try these tips next time you bake a sponge cake, and trust me—your family and friends will think you’ve turned into a professional pastry chef overnight! 1 reply
