A chiffon cake is also leavened with egg whites in addition to baking powder but will include egg yolks and oil. A sponge cake is made with whole eggs and sugar beaten till fluffy. It uses baking powder and butter. As it goes, sponge cake was my favorite cake to make. As an added bonus it's the base of the tres leches cake. I don't know what a butter cake is - it sounds like some kind of regional cake. |

Angel food cake is interesting because it only contains white ingredients. Sponge cake - AKA genoise, is the mother of all cakes i.e., the most basic and classic of cakes. |

Janet UK and others: I think there is a misunderstanding here. The term "sponge" is
often used to refer to just a basic cake....like a chocolate, or spice, or white, or yellow, etc. I notice many of the pro bakers on TV say "sponge," when they just mean an unadorned cake layer. Usually, in the U.S., for most of us anyway, the word "sponge" is followed by the word "cake," meaning sponge cake which is different from chocolate cake or yellow cake or whatever. So "sponge" used by itself can be considered different from "sponge cake." N. |
