These Sugar Sandwich Cakes are a unique and delightful dessert, perfect for those who enjoy a lighter, less dense cake. The recipe involves making a fluffy sponge by first whipping egg whites with vanilla powder, lemon juice, and sugar to create a stable meringue. This is then combined with a mixture of milk, vegetable oil, whole eggs, cake flour, cornstarch, and egg yolks, resulting in a soft and airy batter. The cakes are baked until golden and then assembled into sandwiches with a filling of sweetened whipped cream, offering a delightful contrast between the soft sponge and the creamy filling.
Why You’ll Love This: These sandwich cakes offer a new twist on traditional sponge cakes, with their layered design and creamy filling. They are not overly sweet, making them perfect for any time of the day.
Perfect Occasion: Ideal for afternoon tea, picnics, or as a light dessert after a meal. They also make great snacks for children’s parties or a sweet treat to enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea.
Decoration Tips: Once assembled, you can dust the top with more powdered sugar or cocoa powder for an extra touch of sweetness and elegance. Garnish with fresh berries or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for added flavor and visual appeal.
