This sponge cake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's simple to make, but it looks and tastes like it came from a bakery. I love that it's not too sweet, so it's perfect for people who don't like overly sweet desserts.

This sponge cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
