[taylorswiftrox2121]

[Pokemonloversforever]

Make sure your things (your ass>?) are completely clean?

[banshee193]

@kiranrajkeralaboy

Funny!! You have made me laugh....

[kiranrajkeralaboy]

@banshee193 Hey why the sarcasm. I made a really good one after that, I think in the first one I used bad eggs.

[cosyhuddles123]

8 eggs? ... HOLY SHIT!

[JamminJamieFilms]

I am ashamed to be english..... what a posh git

[JamminJamieFilms]

@kiranrajkeralaboy WTF

[mhyrz0727]

CORN FLOUR U IDIOT

[ghidfg]

fucking wow. they dont even cut it to show us how it looks inside

[CitrineVlogging]

@ghidfg its obvious what it looks like inside all sponge cakes look the same inside

[siho3333]

i like step 9

[strawberrygal998]

i added orange zest in it and it came out really nice but the cake didnt come out moist it was hard to eat

[angelfreanne]

yummy <3 ~

[maheenkk1]

luv luv luv luv luv luv it it it it

[nerissadavid27]

add cream!

[shaikatislam]

i made this cake and seems to me abit dry, how can i make it moist???

[newguy90]

@shaikatislam

Use cake syrup to moisten it, which is what they traditionally do in Europe. They usually brush it with a cake syrup flavored with a liquor like cognac and rum, or expresso, or an extract like citrus and vanilla. You could also make tres leche cake.

[n2i2c2k2y]

how long should i put the cake in for ?????

[tumihina]

not moist enough!!! should i increase butter amount??

[uploooood]

my one wasn't as fluffy as urs :( but im sure it'll survive. it's in the oven right now ill post another comment to tell you how it is in about 30 mins :D

[MrDeathJockey]

I tried a couple of times, but the cakes fell in the middle when they cooled. Can you tell me why is that?

[teddybearkitty]

@MrDeathJockey I Think Its Cos You Didnt Cook It Long Enough Or Their Isnt Enough Eggs Or Flour (:

[purpleprincess0011]

fail

[EllieJelly25]

how long do u bloody bake it for that would be really helpful!

[n2i2c2k2y]

@EllieJelly25 i was thinking the same thing, i can just hear how your saying that though funny !

[TheKingmax111]

@n2i2c2k2y 

[huoopt]

@EllieJelly25 it said 30 min stupid

[Canonpedua12]

@huoopt I guess I'm stupid cause I don't see where she says 30 minutes, I watched it twice o.o

[huoopt]

@Canonpedua12 3:26

[Jyppizz]

@EllieJelly25 You should learn to listen... "After 30 MINUTES check if the cake is ready"

[CitrineVlogging]

@EllieJelly25 are you deaf? she clearly said after 30 minutes remove the cake

[nabakoful]

hmmm is it possible to make it with Chocolate with on top

[shiawasekappukekiful]

wow its a good thing youtube has no restrictions

[shiawasekappukekiful]

oy looks like I'm not the only one with problems here about anger managment

[Vintageislush]

her voice is so patronising..:[...GEHR.

[nashreen55]

A good sponge cake should not sink in the middle :-)

[xxmusicxxaddictedxx]

her voice is so annoying

[CoteWeatherly]

EIGHT EGGS?!

[horseluver169]

Well I just put my cake in the oven and It didn't go to plan! Lol ! I didn't have an electric mix so I used my hands and after stirring of like 10 mins each I gave up and just put the batter toghter! Oh btw when does the sugar go in?!?

[usemoselnitro]

No Spongebob? D8

[messipig]

how come when i made this, it was still soggy inside. i even baked it for 1 hour.

[atiqahismailove]

what happens if you overmix?

[UberPanj]

@atiqahismailove it explodes!

joking.. it won't be airy nor foamy

[nashreen55]

@atiqahismailove

It wont become spongy, the air cells in the cake breaks, as a results of this the cake does not rise fully and may become compact and hard

[hellsing3x6]

I was looking at the sponge cake and thought, hmm, that looks nice, when '8 eggs' popped out.

[fleurieeeeee]

do you have to use cornstarch/flour?

[nashreen55]

@fleurieeeeee

in a basic sponge recipe there is no cornflour... but adding cornflour makes the cake lighter... so use them :-)

[talhahrich]

i just try it..not bad....

[Torbyz]

i have a better recipe

[CoteWeatherly]

@Torbyz Good for you.

[AwesomeLilyZ]

Can u send the recipe to me......Please^-^ and thank u

[arcille969686]

BASICALLY you mix everything together and bake :p

[skipp786]

i tried it but cake was not cooked in a middle,but rest of cake was great.could u plz tell me why this happend ?

[girlytomzzboii]

looks sunken

[evanisbored]

Can you double the recipe?

[JenniferDarkness]

wow thatz alot of sugar

[blodva]

mix first one-third of whites with yolks and then mix it into the remaining whites, it will be more lightly (mix or turn just in one way or you be loosing more "air bubbles")

[DolceVita]

Ugh i saw this recipe, and despite having a food processor rather than a "mixer with whisk attachment", I thought I would try it. Well the yolks didn't get "creamy" or double it's original volume, and the whites didnt "stiffen". Made the cake and it came out eggy & rubbery. Dont get why they suggest 8 eggs... it totally ruined the cake. So I reverted to the ordinary "normal sponge recipe + food processor + baking powder" method, and the cake was award winning. Goes to prove, if it ain't broke..

[CoteWeatherly]

@DolceVita You used a FOOD PROCESSOR.. of course it wouldn't work.

it would rather be done by hand with a whisk and take for hours with this recipe.

[DolceVita]

@CoteWeatherly yeah i thought using a food processor for THIS recipe would not work - however i don't even think the lack of a proper cake mixer was the main problem... i found the use of 8 eggs was too much, the cake had a really spongy texture. SO as I said, i made another cake, this time I reverted to my good old sponge recipe, used my food processor and my cake came out amazing.

[CoteWeatherly]

@DolceVita Yeah, I have to agree, eight eggs was way too many.

Sorry if I sounded bitchy in my original reply,

[lemontea128]

@DolceVita can you share your recipe with me?? I've been searching for a good sponge cake recipe and haven't found one yet. thanks!

[adoringcarmine]

this is the most complicated sponge cake recipe ever... all you need is 4oz of butter, sugar and flour and 2 eggs. DONE

[lovebuggy40]

ewwwwws ur hands r sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooo ugggglllyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwssssssssssssssssssss

[calcat13]

@lovebuggy40 I think those aew a mans hands

[mrsabiankem]

i hate the way she talks

[nirvanafrik]

Anyone else thinks it's a too complicated recipe? I mean - what bakery would go this long to make a fucking sponge cake?

[Kathy1234567891]

I did this and when I cut it to eat a piece the inside is dark green is it suppose to be like this? I'm not gonna it it unless I get a response

[612claire612]

@Kathy1234567891

Yh i prefer You don't.. Because one of your ingredients might have something? :L or your baking tray might have been dirty x :)

[XPURPLElemonadex]

She sounds like the lady off my maths listening tests. :'(

[iknoweverything314]

cornflour?...no no no it's cornstarch

[leopogecko]

that doesnt look like 1 tsp of vaniller extract

[viorensa1]

ty..it so help full..!!

[agotisan1]

why does it sound like she's seducing me with this recipe

[xxchocobun89xx]

can you use something else to substitute for corn flower/cornstarch?

[alayhaluvsmj]

@xxchocobun89xx mm i think you could try backing powder or soda :P

[fon721010]

thums up if you like cake : )

[AmielDionisio]

Corn Flower? WTF?! O_O

[pegasus1254]

@AmielDionisio corn starch

[catagon12345]

it's fake, dont even try...

THE CAKE IS A LIE!

[123irockusuck]

@catagon12345 how....? :P

[Kazpersmami]

I tried this recipe and and I used almond extract to bake the giant cup cape and it turned out great! O, and I didn't use cornflour nor cornflower but used cake flour. Thank you so much for the recipe.

[mochidaifukutan]

i tried making this sponge cake for several times and it tastes awful!!! too eggy, not fluffy etc!!!

[ina7782]

thanks....good explanation.....

[7purplegirl7]

Her voice is annoying!

[deleteboy99]

hello

[PopPrincessAIko]

w0w thats a lot of stuff

[bubblesweetify]

what type of flour?

[xGKxaliasxMex]

@bubblesweetify for some reason americans do use lots and lots of cornstarch/cornflour... normal flour alone will do

[sheharyar72]

your voice is so annoying!

[h451b786]

can you replace the cornflour for anything else?

[elarhy]

@h451b786 yes you can. go to this link, go to this link

joyofbaking. com/ IngredientSubstitution.

[SandraChyan]

I love her british accsent, it makes her sound sofisticated and succsesfull :3

[purplebookbanjolion]

[chaostorRS]

Press 4 and 9 over and over for the LULZZZZ :]

[TheChefRonn]

@chaostorRS on 4 it feels like she say get a Job

[chaostorRS]

@TheChefRonn oh yah lol

[SuperFantasyGamer]

[ShiningMissy]

the egg whites were not white...

[47292801]

It really worked. Thanks a lot! My best sponge cake so far! I used 5 eggs and reduced the ingredient proportionally.

[53jthomas]

I have cups which hold 125ml and cups that hold 450ml. The only way to get a satisfactory result is to use standard measures.

[usemoselnitro]

ingredients: you will need...

a shitload of eggs

[SlimShadyFans313]

thats alot of eggs inone cake lol

[lpurplefashion]

thanx u can add frosting also

[kaivilyn]

the measurements would be more helpful in mL and cups instead of oz and g

[starrekharr]

thank you it lookes dilish

[Mr360Fifa]

is there anything i could use rather than vanilla extract

[anetteisobe]

I wish she measure it in cups and not in grams

[loonabella]

Never will understand why ppl call it vanilleR instead of VaniLLA... /sigh

[StitckyForever]

the sponge cake bake with what temperature and how long to bake it?

[adrianfung999]

i would whip the egg white first before the yolks

[MoonLite20951]

lol cornflower!

[Harpiieboy]

@MoonLite20951 Haha you got a great eye !

[lazygurl22]

is chiffon cake another term of sponge cake?

[kokishundo]

@lazygurl22 well, almost right. chiffon cake is like a lower quality sponge cake. the difference is that a sponge cake is richer. i'm not really sure why though, but i know that much.

[MariaAnn23]

What about mixing the egg whites first...If so do we need to wash the mixer before putting egg yolks?

[ceciveggie]

I´m sorry, no baking powder? Please answer!

[Vleesball]

@ceciveggie you can but you dont have to i think cause the beat egg whites already act like baking powder.

..also i added the melted butter in my egg yolks after i beat them.. so i dont have to lift my egg whites to often..

cake came out perfect is was so spongee and light it rocked my belly.

used chocolate moose as filling and melted chocolate with some icing sugar mixed for topping...outside was so crispy while the inside was soft so good <3

[ceciveggie]

@Vleesball Thank you! I live by the sea, if I don´t use baking powder my cake would end up as flat as a pizza (it happened to me before), chocolate moose,,,,,,,sounds dellicious. Happy baking and happy new year to you!

[skyerune]

cornflower? Come on, your country invented the language!

[HausOfCats]

... at one point she said corn starch when it was corn flour... are those two the same?

[ST4RBURSTS]

Sorry I don't know if this is me but....... It sounds like vaniller extract. Sorry lol but me and my mom tried it. It tasted soo goooood (:

[tsukiomilover]

what kind of cake pan is that? where u can take the sides out

[PhoenixMaster95]

@tsukiomilover That's a springform pan. It has a removable bottom and sides :)

[tsukiomilover]

hehehe . . . moist and stiff . . . = w= . . lol, srry, cnt help it

is this rlly hard to make? i want strawberry shortcake so bad right now >.<

[786naw]

I have just tried it and it turned out to be great......

[12babon56]

could someone  explain to me what cornflower is, pls? i really want to know

[sixflagslover2428]

@12babon56 corn flour is the same as corn starch

[Jiaqianxoxo]

Why did mine turn out flat? :(

[mmoneyitswhereitsat]

can i still make it if i dont have cornflower??

[NOTSOBER2012]

@mmoneyitswhereitsat yeah you could use all purpose

[sixflagslover2428]

@mmoneyitswhereitsat corn flour is the same as corn starch

[houchi69]

it didnt look like it rise that much... :-\

[SaleenaYasminAli]

yummy!

[12alar1132078oktia]

When i cook something the final result is a total disaster, i tried this recipe 2 days ago and the odd thing of all is that the cake was awesome.

[emechou]

thanks so much for this recipe, so concisely explained, i tried it and it worked out perfectly for  a first time, i was so happy and thankful you posted this video.

[killomg99]

[3BYqueen1]

I really liked this video! but is that powdered sugar or granulated or what? egg whites go up with normal sugar? need answer!

[nesyuhgnilerf]

@3BYqueen1

See the videojug website. They have the ingredients and method listed.

[Kayjoss]

my mmixture won't cling!

[keikoandaileen]

i diddnt like the vid

[YagamiRaitosan]

If I knew how these tasted I'd actually cook them

[cestrianvlogger]

spongecake squarepants

[makeminealarge1]

fuck it....i just woke up at the end.....her soft voice sent me to sleep zzzzzzz lol

[HannahElhan]

This just complicates things. To make the perfect sponge of that size, weigh 3 eggs. Whatever they weigh, EVERY other ingredient used should weigh the same. Butter and sugar in bowl, beat until pale. Add 1 egg at a time with some of the flour until all 3 eggs and all flour are gone. Done. You want a bigger cake, use more eggs. But make sure every other ingredient weighs the same as however many eggs you are using.

[MuffLoveLgN]

what is vanilla extract for ?

and why it is dark in colour?

and also, can i use smaller pan?

[Dhamian]

its just me or she sounds like GlaDOS?

[Cultflora]

her voice... bothers me... :|

[GDRAGON43v3r]

hey should the eggs be at room temp or is it ok if i get them straight from the fridge? i also noticed there is no baking soda/powder. no need?

[talons2go]

@GDRAGON43v3r room temp is best ;-)

[dire1231]

nice cake,i tried this and it came out great.thanks for the video

[TsukiShia]

It is kind of strange that this video says you should clean the mixer very well before mising the egg whites. I thought it would be a lot better if you FIRST do the egg whites and THEN the yolks. Since you dont have to clean the mixer after beating the whites..

[THERANDOMNESS84]

i don't think we need to introduce the egg yolk to the whites since they grew up together

[TsukiShia]

@THERANDOMNESS84

ur funny

[PR166lolly]

@THERANDOMNESS84 ...they were whipped and different things were added in, they might not recognize each other anymore...XD

[wardeath100]

@THERANDOMNESS84 Funny!!!!!!!!

[Avrelsg]

whats the difference between sponge and chiffon cake?

[DV3X7]

It tastes of egg.

[nonnopirro52]

GREAT!!! Ciao dall'italia
