Sponge cakes have a European pedigree. Light in taste and low in fat, they are a good choice for people who want something sweet without overindulging. It is a favorite accompaniment for tea or coffee, or any time you wish to enjoy some light refreshment. Unlike most cookies and cakes, the sponge version is not based on a fat source like butter, margarine, or shortening. There is an art to producing a light and flavorful sponge cake that retains moistness without the addition of fat. This sponge cake fits the bill with a taste and texture you will find delectable enough to serve on its own. You can also top it with fresh fruit or cream to make a dessert dressed up enough for formal entertaining.
This cake is made as 12 ounce size loaf from all natural ingredients. It is certified kosher pareve.
