Description
Making a sponge cake is really simple, especially if you have a mixer on hand. But there's one important point: to prevent the cake from collapsing, it must be completely cooled (about 5 hours). Only after that can you cut the sponge into two layers. There are no more secrets—feel free to start cooking. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
