Easy but Tasty Sponge Cake Recipe Help
I have a major problem getting cakes to come out of the oven soft and moist, i need a recipe that is easy but tasty. Im not good at baking cakes at all and really do need some help. I make my kids birthday cakes every year and everytime the same thing happens they are dry or tasteless. Any help is highly appreciated as the birthdays are in a weeks time. Thanks

Hi cakecrusader
Dry and tasteless sounds like too much baking on too high temperature. For a lovely sponge try Mrs Jones’ vanilla sponge recipe, you’ll find it here http://www.cakeflix.com/online-cake-decorating-courses/mrs-joness-recipe-for-10-round-deep-sponge-cake. There are lots of hints and tips in this bloghttp://www.cakeflix.com/blog/baking-the-perfect-cake-why-things-go-wrong which might help you bake a more successful cake. Would be great to get your feed back. Happy baking! x
Thanks i will have a look and see how i get on. Thanks for the help. x
