Best sponge cake I've made so far - 22 Oct 2016
The final result is absolutely delicious, but after experimenting, I found that you only need one cup of sugar and a dribble-more of milk. Anymore and it's too sweet and a tad too dry. Once you get your preferences on the ingredients right, though, it's addictive! - 29 Apr 2001 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
