Classic Sponge Cake

Overview

Sponge cake is a type of puffy snack that uses the foaming properties of egg whites to fill the egg liquid with a large amount of air and then bakes it with flour. It is named because its structure resembles a porous sponge. Ingredients for making sponge cakes include eggs, sugar, flour and a small amount of grease. Fresh eggs are the most important condition for making sponge cakes, because fresh eggs have a high colloid solution consistency that can incorporate gas and maintain stable gas performance. Eggs that have been stored for a long time are not suitable for making cakes.
