    Lovely cake. I made this for my baby girls first birthday cake, sandwiched with some jam, cream and strawberries. It's a lovely cake, but not really a sponge cake. I made the cake the day before in two 18cm tins, then put it all together the morning of the party.

    easy to do, cooked in a tray for a large cake, was thin but held shape so quickly made a second one and sandwiched with Jam, then easy to shape and Ice.

    Really good, light and very tasty.  My daughter made it and put whipped cream, morello cherry jam and morello cherrys in the middle - YUM

    It says to add salt in step one but doesn't say how much? Did anyone else add salt or shall I leave it out?

    Split mine in two small round cake tins and coloured one for a birthday cake. Good texture and didn't sink when cooling. TaSte good too. 

    Thanks

    Glad you liked it! I don't know what a whoopie pan is, but when I have made it into a big cake I have baked it for about 30 mins, just keep testing it until a knife comes out clean

    Just finished baking 2 of these cakes (2 separate batches baked in 2 deep lamington pans) I am sandwiching them together with lemon curd & cream for my son birthday cake. I must admit I was a bit sceptical of this recipe as there was no "folding" involved, but it was great, lovely & light & the real vanilla bean looks great through the mix. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe

    tmrc_emoticons.)interesting method, will try soon. How long would the two larger cakes bake for, would 20 minutes be about right? I don't have bun cases, would a muffin top pan work?(much like a whoopie pie pan) Will let you know how I go, thanks for posting. Cooking 7
