Sponge Cake Mix
We bake our ready to decorate genoese sponges from scratch ingredients in the traditional way, but not everyone has the time or inclination! After many customer requests, we have now launched easy to use vanilla or chocolate sponge cake mixes for those who enjoy home baking but need the reassurance of consistent results every time. All you need to add is egg, vegetable oil and water, and you have the flexibility to bake whatever shapes and sizes of sponge you need - big cakes, little cakes, novelty shapes and muffins!
Our sponge cake mixes are extremely versatile and tolerant to a wide range of baking conditions. They will produce a close textured moist cake, firm and easy to handle, which should keep well for at least 2 weeks. The results will not be identical to our ready baked genoese bases as these are baked from scratch ingredients and cannot be recreated exactly in a cake mix. However, cakes baked using these mixes will be just as suitable for decorating, and you have the advantage of being able to add extra ingredients and flavours - fruit, chocolate chips,lemon flavouring?
A three kilogram box will be plenty to make three large 10" square cakes, or six 8" round cakes. You can also get between 130 and 200 cupcakes from one box, depending on the size of your cakes!
A full instruction leaflet showing quantities needed for different sizes and shapes of cake is enclosed, and can also be downloaded here as a printable pdf file.
