Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350 F and prep your cake pan by oiling or placing parchment paper, etc.
- 2
Separate the egg whites and yolks.
- 3
Beat together egg yolks, ⅛ C of sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla until smooth and yolks turn pale yellow. Set aside.
- 4
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until it forms soft peaks and slowly beat in the rest of the sugar. Keep beating consistently to create a snow-like batter (delicate peaks). Set aside.
- 5
Stir the dry ingredients - flour, baking powder, salt - together in a separate bowl. Stir in the yolk mixture with a fork, gently mixing until basically incorporated. It should form a wet thickish batter. Be careful not to over-mix!
- 6
The fun part: fold in the eggwhite snow ½ C at a time, into the cake batter making sure to incorporate fully each time. The final result should be a much lighter, fluffier batter.
- 7
Pour the batter into your prepared pan, and bake in the center rack for 30-35 minutes on 350 F, until it's golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (I added some frozen strawberries which I wouldn't recommend as it interferes with the moisture of the cake when the frozen strawberries cook :\)
- 8
Remove the cake from the oven, let it cool for 5 minutes before removing. Let it completely cool before serving with some berries, drizzled chocolate, or ice cream!

FOR STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE: I use a cookie sheet to get that thin layer. Bake for 20-30 minutes... Keep your eye out for the top to turn a light golden brown. If it jiggles, it's all right - it will settle once it's fully cooled.
- 10
Make the cream cheese frosting by whipping the butter, cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Wait for the cake to be completely cool before applying. (don't want a runny, melty situation!)
- 11
You can double this recipe and bake two cookie sheets of batter, or just cut the cake in half like my lazy self did. Apply frosting, place you sliced strawberries, add another layer of frosting thinly, cover with top cake layer, apply thin layer of frosting on the top. Voila! You have yourself some strawberry shortcake 🤩

Egg-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake Egg-Free Fluffy Sponge Cake
I really wanted my daughter who is allergic to eggs to be able to eat a decorative fluffy sponge cake.Egg-free cakes tend to be chewy and heavy rather than fluffy so I tried aiming for a cake that's fluffy but not dried out.I added in cocoa to cover up the taste of the baking powder. If you're making a decorated one, though, with other ingredients topped on it, you could also try preparing it without the cocoa.When you add the vinegar at Step 5, the batter will begin to expand quite quickly so please mix it in and get the batter in the oven as quickly as possible.

The texture will be similar to castella, Japanese sponge cake. You do not even need to sift it. If you are using cake flour, sift before using it. Recipe by tama-ma -

Fluffy Sponge Cake Fluffy Sponge Cake
This is a sponge cake I've made for a long time. If you would like a chocolate sponge cake, reduce the flour by about 10 g and add about 20 g of cocoa.Step 1: If using an electric mixer, beat on high speed until you can draw an S on the surface of the batter, about 1-2 minutes.Step 4: If the temperature of the melted butter is too high, it will remove all the air from the batter and result in a deflated cake.

Egg and Dairy Free! Strawberry Sponge Cake Egg and Dairy Free! Strawberry Sponge Cake
This is a variation of.You do not need to be precise about the amount of the hot water poured in the baking tray. If you pour too much water, it is hard to get the tray out when the cake is done baking. The amount should be just right if all the water evaporates by the time the cake has finished baking. If your oven has a multiple racks, insert a tray full of water into the bottom shelf and the cake on 1 layer above the water tray to let steam. Recipe by uronkouron -

Sponge Cake Sponge Cake
I confess that I was really inspired by a book called "A Book That Answers your Why? Questions About Making Sweets" by Kazuyoshi Aihara. I highly recommend you read the book for further details.I reduced the calories of the recipe listed in the book as much as possible.There are 4 important key points; if you do these properly, then you can make a beautiful sponge cake. If you use the same ingredients in the exact same order, then this is the key to not failing in mixing it. If you remember this, then there is nothing to fear. ＊When beating the eggs, please add in vanilla essence if you like. Recipe by Osshosan -

Easy Oil-free Sponge Cake Easy Oil-free Sponge Cake
I was making my own decorated roll cake recipe, so I wanted to make my own sponge cake for use in roll cakes and regular cakes. It's not as tall as sponge cakes with butter in them, but it's fluffy.When mixing in the flour, over-mixing will cause bubbles to form in the cake, preventing it from fully expanding, but if you under-mix, the cake will become crumbly. Try stirring about the number of times suggested here. After making it a few times, you can find the balance you like the best. Recipe by Rearea cheese -
