This is the best sponge recipe I've ever used!! I've always had a problem trying to get a light sponge, but this was perfect. Light and tasty. I cooked it in 2 tins to make it into a sandwich.

Wow! Thank you for sharing this recipe! Whenever I try to bake cakes, they never turn out right and we end up throwing it out. When I tried to bake your sponge cake, it turned out great and we finished it so fast!

I wasn't sure what size pan to use, since it wasn't stated, so I used a 12" pie pan, which accommodated the batter just about right. However, my cake turned dark brown--not golden like the sponge cakes in the stores. Still, it had a nice crisp exterior and a soft spongey middle. I haven't served it yet tonight (w/s.berries & w.cream), but I think my clan will like it. It cost less than $1 to make--several times less than the store's.
