Рецепт Making Mocha Marble Sponge Cake
I just did a flash baking frenzy again.
This late afternoon, after a quick browse in the internet, I decided to make a Sponge Cake based on the recipe from this source. I don't know why but I have been using lots of allrecipe.com's cake recipes these days.
I myself have made Chiffon Cake several times but never did any Sponge Cake before. I find the methods in making these two cakes are fairly the same; it's just that there is no vegetable oil or butter involved in making Sponge Cake. In addition, Sponge Cake's final result has aerated texture, similar to a sea sponge, as compared to Chiffon Cake's.
I used half of the ingredients stated in the above original recipe as there were only 5 eggs left in our kitchen. I did not have any lemon extract or zest either, so I decided to flavour my Sponge Cake with mocha pasta.
Check out the below recipe that I used for creating my Mocha Marble Sponge Cake earlier today.
My first trial of making (Marble) Sponge Cake:

Mocha Marble Sponge Cake
Ingredients:
- 3 Eggs, separated
- 100gr Sugar
- 30ml Water
- 75gr Cake Flour
- 1gr Cream of tar-tar
Mocha pasta/essence, if desired
Tutorials:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites by using high-speed electric mixer. Then, gradually add the cream of tar tar into it. Keep beating the egg whites until they are firm and form soft peaks. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks until thick. Beat in sugar gradually. Add water. Use high-speed electric mixer for this.
Turn the electric mixer to its slowest speed and gradually add the cake flour into the egg yolk mixture. Beat until the mixture just combined. Don't over beat.
Fold the egg yolk and flour mixture into the whipped egg whites by using rubber spatula.
Divide the cake batter into two. Give half of the cake batter mocha pasta and mix well. Leave the other half cake batter white as it is.
Alternately pour the white and mocha cake batters into a cake pan already lined with parchment paper.
Once done with pouring both cake batters into the pan, gently shake the pan a little bit to release the air and even the cake batter.
Bake the cake in a preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until done.
Whipping the cake batter for this Sponge Cake is not hard at all and relatively fast too. Furthermore, if the recipe is well followed, it's almost guaranteed that we'd get a soft, light and spongy cake texture.
