How to Make Our Assorted Flavoured Sponge Cake
Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter
Preheat the oven. Set oven temperature to 170°C (340°F). Grease and line cake pans with parchment paper.
Cream butter and sugar. Beat softened butter and sugar together until the mixture becomes light, fluffy, and creamy.
This step helps create a soft sponge texture by adding air into the batter.
Step 2: Add Eggs and Flavor
Add eggs gradually. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Add vanilla. Stir in vanilla extract until evenly combined.
Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients
Prepare the flour mixture. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.
Create the batter. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with milk.
Mix gently until the batter becomes smooth. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake light and fluffy.
Step 4: Create Different Flavors
Divide the batter. Separate the cake batter into different bowls depending on how many flavors you want to prepare.
Yogurt Flavor:
Mix in yogurt and reduce milk quantity as mentioned.
Oreo Flavor:
Fold crushed Oreo cookies gently into the batter.
Red Velvet Flavor:
Add cocoa powder, red food coloring, and vinegar.
Funfetti Flavor:
Fold colorful sprinkles into the vanilla batter.
Coffee Flavor:
Add dissolved instant coffee and mix well.
Chocolate Flavor:
Replace some flour with cocoa powder and add chocolate chips if desired.
Step 5: Bake the Cakes
Fill cake pans. Pour each flavored batter into prepared cake tins.
Bake. Bake for 25–35 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool completely. Allow cakes to cool before slicing or decorating.
