In England although we use this recipie for making swiss roll we actually prefer victoria sponge mix for cakes.

4oz/100g castor sugar
4oz/100g butter
4oz/100g self raising flour
2 beaten eggs

Cream butter and sugar well together until pale and creamy in colour. Add in half of the egg and a tablespoon of flour. Mix well. Mix in remainder of egg and another spoon of flour. Continue adding flour and beating until mixture is used up. Divide mixture between 2 greased and floured sandwich tins(7 inch) Bake at 180C for 20 minutes. Mixture is ready when a skewer iserted into mix comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to stand for 5 minutes then turn out onto a wire rack to cool. When cold sandwich cakes together with jam or lemon curd and/or butter cream. Dust top with icing sugar.

Hi All (Walty and Dolphin especially),

I've been doing some research into making a basic sponge cake and have concluded that in most cases, both egg yolks AND egg whites are used in making this type of cake.

If you are interested in a good recipe, and one that is quite easy, click below to bring you to the Sponge Cake recipe on this website.

Hi there,

No replies yet to whether yolks or whites are used. Well, the asian style to that is to use the yolks. In fact, we have a spoonge that is similar and its a popular snack during festivals.
Still learning from my mum and aunty in law cos they're experts at it.

Hi LONGRYDER,

In your recipe for sponge cake, in the ingredients, you don't specify egg whites or egg yolks. You just say 5 eggs. Isn't it just the egg whites that are used, not the yolks?

Can you let us know?

By the way, it's good to hear from you again.

Sincerely, Diana
