Foolproof Fluffy Cocoa Sponge Cake
I tried baking a cocoa-flavored sponge cake for Valentine's Day.
Beat the eggs thoroughly in a double boiler.
You won't be able to slice the sponge cake nicely until it's completely cooled.
If the skewer doesn't come out clean, bake a little longer at 170℃ until it is done. Recipe by *Anna*

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Smear the mold with a thin layer of vegetable oil or butter (not listed). Line the bottom and side with parchment paper cut to fit the mold.
- 2
Break in the eggs into a bowl, and beat in a double boiler until it forms a thick ribbon when the whisk is lifted.
- 3
Add the sugar and continue beating. Once it's well beaten to a point where you can almost write letters on the surface, smooth out the batter by beating for an additional 1 to 2 minutes at low speed.
- 4
Put the ＊ ingredients into a heatproof container and microwave at 600 W for 30 to 40 seconds.
- 5
Preheat oven to 170℃. Combine the ingredients and sift into the batter in 2 to 3 portions, folding in with a spatula with each addition.
- 6
Add in ＊ and mix swiftly.
- 7
Pour in the batter all at once from up high (making sure to pour in the last bits near the rim of the mold). Drop the mold down onto your work surface a couple of times to remove any air pockets.
- 8
Once the oven has been preheated, bake for 30 minutes. Once baked, drop the mold from a height of about 30 cm to prevent shrinking.
- 9
Flip it over on top of a sheet of parchment paper (Sorry, I'm using plastic wrap in this picture.)
- 10
Remove the mold and paper around the rim first, put the mold back on and let rest 2 to 3 minutes to flatten the surface.
- 11
Remove the mold around the rim and flip the cake over on your right palm. Gently place on a cooling rack and remove the mold and paper on the bottom.
- 12
Place the entire cake (with the cooling rack) in a plastic bag and let rest until completely cool.
- 13
When it's cooled completely, slice it to your preference.

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.

Fluffy and Moist Chocolate Sponge Cake Fluffy and Moist Chocolate Sponge Cake
I arranged my fluffy and soft plain sponge cake to make this chocolate sponge. I added honey and starch syrup, and adjusted the amount of fat so as to make a fluffy and moist, but not dry sponge cake.You have to beat the eggs well, but do not beat too much. After that, the texture must be made fine with a hand mixer at a lower-speed. Fold in the mixture using a spatula with a cutting motion and rotate your bowl against the direction of the spatula. Do not over-mix but make sure the cocoa liquid is combined evenly. After mixing, the volume of the batter may drop, but do not worry. When it bakes, it will rise. Recipe by Lesser Panda -

I modified another recipe of mine to make this cake.After pouring the batter into the pan in Step 3, drop the pan at a height to release the air bubbles.The baking time will differ according to your oven.Make sure the parchment paper is higher than the sides of the pan. Recipe by bvivid -
Fluffy and Moist Sponge Cake Fluffy and Moist Sponge Cake
I experimented with various ratios of the dry ingredients and finally came up with this sponge cake.If you raise the temperature of the egg mixture too high before you whip it, you will end up with a lot of air bubbles and the batter will be lumpy. So cool it down if it's too hot. If you have a thermometer, check the temperature of the butter before you add it to the batter. This process has an impact on the shape of the cake when it's baked (the dome on top falls depending on the temperature of the batter). Recipe by Shi-chan -
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.

I bake this every year for Christmas and birthdays, but a 18 cm pan wasn't big enough, so I tried baking in a 21 cm pan.I wrote in Step 5 how to mix in the butter and milk into the batter, but if you've followed the recipe exactly, you can add it directly to Step 4. However, there's a high possibility that the batter would sink, so it's best to keep the two steps separate. Recipe by ko-ko -
Fluffy Genoise Sponge Cake Fluffy Genoise Sponge Cake
I failed several times, but it finally took shape. This is a recipe that turns out nice and fluffy.If you coat the mold with lots of butter, then you will be able to remove it cleanly from the mold, so I recommend using a lot. After sprinkling with flour, please thoroughly shake out the excess. After mixing the eggs into the flour, please stir sufficiently. Do it thoroughly and properly. If it's well-whipped the air bubbles will not pop. For 18 cm [7.1 in] round mold. Recipe by Kkmamacchi
