Vanilla Sponge Cake

Why We Love This Cake

• Fluffy and moist without being heavy
• Fast and easy to bake from scratch
• Frosts beautifully with whipped cream
• Perfect for birthdays, baby showers, brunches or just because

🍰 Ingredients

For the sponge cake:

• 4 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp baking powder
• Pinch of salt

For the whipped cream frosting:

• 2 cups heavy whipping cream (very cold)
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line three 6-inch pans.
2. Beat eggs and sugar until the mixture is thick, pale, and triples in volume (around 5–7 minutes).
3. Fold in vanilla, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix gently — don’t deflate the batter.
4. Divide the batter into your pans. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
5. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold onto a cooling rack.
6. Whip the cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
7. Stack cake layers with whipped cream in between.
8. Frost the outside and decorate as desired — berries, chocolate shavings, edible flowers.
9. Serve on a Duradelish cake board for that clean, pro look.

💡 Pro Tips

• Chill your bowl and beaters before whipping cream
• Use parchment circles in pans for easy release
• Don’t overbake — this sponge loves moisture
