Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. This sponge cake is suitable for a simple tea time. You can also use it to make a cake by spreading the layers with any cream or just jam. But if you plan to make a cake from this sponge, it's better to let it rest for another 8–10 hours after cooling. Leave the layers overnight and assemble the cake in the morning.
