Syrup for soaking sponge cake
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. 1. To prepare an aromatic syrup for soaking the sponge cake, combine sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer briefly until the sugar dissolves completely. 2. Wash the orange, carefully remove the zest, and add it to the syrup. 3. Next, you have two options: you can add a cinnamon stick or vanilla extract, for example, or alcohol. If the dessert isn't intended for children, I recommend adding your favorite liqueur or rum. Mix everything thoroughly and let it cool. 4. Once the syrup has cooled and infused with all the flavors and aromas, strain it through a sieve. 5. Another simple recipe for sponge cake syrup is to use the liquid from canned berries and fruits. Depending on the type of dessert, use syrup from peaches, pineapples, strawberries, etc. By the way, these two options go perfectly together, so you can use both in one cake. Serve with tea or coffee.
