This better than bakery chocolate sponge cake recipe is light, airy, moist and just straight up DELICIOUS! Paired with my homemade raspberry jam filling, and chocolate whipped cream, you are going to simply fall in love with this cake! This recipe is based on my original light and airy sponge cake 🙂
INGREDIENTS:
Sponge Cake

Simple Syrup
- ¼ cup (50 g) white granulated sugar

Love love love your channel 😍😍😍
Wow❤❤❤ I have been searching for this chocolate sponge.
Your recipes are everything 😋
Aww thank you!! :D
I have tried this recepie today and it’s the best sponge cake I ever made. I’m so happy that it didn’t get deflated as usual and it’s so fluffy and not dense as usual. Thanks for the recepie. The only ingredient I skipped is the lemon juice in the jam as I don’t like anything sour. Most of them say that the sour balances the sugar but for me it’s just the opposite. Even without the lemon juice, the jam was too sour . But the sponge was amazing. I have finally found the forever recepie.
This looks amazing. I will make it this week for my birthday and have my 6 years old niece and nephew decorate it ( and obviously taste every steps at the same time😂) .Thank you so much for sharing you are a wonderfull teacher.
sponge cake is my favorite ❤
I am so going to try your cakes:)
Looks amazing... I try making this over the weekend ❤
I made your plain/vanilla sponge last weekend, and it is fantastic! I didn't simple syrup and it was still so beautiful 5 days later. Thank you for sharing these beautiful recipes for sponges :)

Masha Allah amazingly soft and delicious. Had it for dessert the other day. 😊.
Love you Amma
This recipe was lovely ....just wanted to know if you can freeze them or refrigerate them.?
Looks amazing! Can you make sponge cake cupcakes?
First of all i'd to thank u i m from egypt may i do it in in one 8" pan wish for more success
This looks so delicious. I love all of your methods of baking. Your instructions are just so simple to follow. Do you think you could share with us how to do the classic Black Forest cake.? This is my husbands favourite. Many thanks.💕
Thanks so so much! :D Black forest cake is totally on my to-do list :D
@@CakesbyMK I hope that it’s soon as my hubby’s birthday is coming up in mid July. No pressure…L😂L!
Hi this look delicious, will the cake still rise if I store half of the batter in fridge for an hour?
I have one cake tin, so wondering whether I should buy another tin or I can make each layer separately!
Can i freeze these for storage and will they still be spongy ?
Would this same recipe work for cupcakes?... or do you need to make adjustments. If so what? Thank you❤ looks delicious
Plz make eggfree choclate cake tried your hot milk vanilla cake it was outstanding 👌
Ooooo so doing this 1 😊❤
Hi MK. Would love for you to do a mocha cake. My sister in law has been craving one for the longest time and I'd like to make one for her. ^_^
Oooohh mocha cake sounds delicious! I'll have to put that on my to-do list :)
Can i use this cake to stack a 4 layers cake with Italian butter cream!! Will it crush the soft layers!!
Looks perfect ❤️ can you tell me the pan size for this cake ..😊
What can I use as a substitute for cornstarch?
I only have an oven for 1 baking tin, can the other half of the batter be left on first?
Is it ok if I only use 1/2 a cup of sugar? And bake it in an 8x2 pan?
Hello! Could you please tell me if I can use this recipe for a big sheet cake? For example 35x40cm?
Hi Mk, how much do I need to add if I want to have 3 layer cake?
❤❤❤❤
Can you freeze this cake for a future party? If yes what’s the correct way?
I can’t wait to try this recipe… looks soo delicious.
Dear Mk , pls make a video on Eggless Chocolate cake 🙏
Can we substitute cocoa powder with melted chocolate?
Making this
Can u show us whipped cream frosting.. I always get in trouble with this
Hi from where do you buy your cake tins
I can't wait to try this! Do you think an orange curd would be good instead of the raspberries/strawberries? I love the blend of chocolate and orange. (My daughter bought me some of those chocolate oranges by Terry many Christmases ago and I've been hooked ever since!)
Oooohh orange curd sounds delicious! Haven't tried that combo myself but honestly anything that goes well with chocolate will work :D
Can I add 3 eggs instead 4?
Please mk suggest alternative for whipping cream its very difficult to find here .. only non dairy whip topping is available… what can i use instead?
I have one doubt sis..Can I use whipping cream? for red velvet cake sis.. ur recipes is really wonderful 💖 and really so easy to make 😍and .am watching from India 🇮🇳 ☺
Can I use sunflower oil instead of vegetable oil?
MK, why do you use granulated sugar instead of caster sugar.
Can i use powdered sugar in this recipe?
my egg whites were not stiffening and im not sure why but i beat them for a good half an hour. they are cooking in the oven now. pray they turn out well inshaallah
Any alternatives for eggs?
I actually did what you said about the syrup. I did Nescafé.😎
Yummmm!! That would have added great flavour :D
00:54 ... 31/03 sun ... JUST MADE ITT !! ❤❤😍
