Either split sponges and fill with lemon butter or strawberry jam and whipped cream, spread whipped cream over top of sponges and grate chocolate curls on top to decorate.

I cannot make a sponge cake! Well I can now! Great recipe, thanks for sharing
I didn't incorporate the mix well enough with the spatula so the custard powder was hard in places in the cake. Will try again though.
