Strawberry sponge cake


I used this sponge to do my girl birthday cake using a "8 inch" square cake tin. Flung or pass the test? It is soft and fluffy.



Ingredients:
  • 4 Eggs
  • 120g Castor Sugar
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 130g Cake Flour (Sifted)
  • 30g Melted Butter
  • 30g Strawberry Milk (i used HL Strawberry)
  • 1 Tsp Strawberry Emulco
  • 1/2 Tsp Strawberry Essence

Methods:
  1. Whisk the eggs and sugar on high speed about 8 mins until double in volume. (soft peak)
  2. Stir in the sifted flour in 3 patches, mix until well blended.
  3. Add in the melted butter and fold well.
  4. Add the milk and strawberry emulco/strawberry essence fold gently.
  5. Pour the batter into a greased and lined 20cm square mould. Bake at a preheated oven for 30-35mins
Take a look at pengskitchen blog, she had video to teach you step by step.

Mango Yogurt Sponge Cake

Another overdue posting on May 2010.  I find it so difficult to to express my feeling in words and I'm so afraid that i might make a fool of myself by posting error here and there :( Anyway who cares, i am what i am. Blur Blur queen!!!


This is my another first attempt of sponge cake. I always find it so difficult to bake a sponge cake, as compare to chiffon. Don't understand why? This is a mini mould cake, but i was too lazy to grease the mini mould one by one. Hence, i did it into a "8 inch" cake square mould. Look ugly but delicious and not too sickening

Ingredients:
(A)
3 eggs
280g sponge mix
(B)
100g mango yogurt drink
(C)
120g melted butter
60g Mango yogurt

Methods:
  1. Whip (A) until light. Stir in (B) and continue whipping until light and fluffy.
  2. Fold in (C) and mix until well blended.
  3. Pour the batter into a greased square mould. Bake at 180C 40 minutes remove foil and bake for 10 minutes to brown the surface.
