Who says sponge cake has to be tricky?
The clever trick to this recipe is that you weigh the whole eggs (yes – including their shells) and then you weigh the same amount of the other ingredients – flour, sugar and butter.
With this simple ratio you can make any size sponge cake that you please. You’ll be baking perfect sponge cakes every single time.
