Lemon Sponge


Lemon Sponge

This. was. DELICIOUS. I was so skeptical about this recipe, I've never made a "sponge" before. I had no idea what it was supposed to be in the end, and the instructions seemed devilishly simple. It is very simple, and yet what a spectacular end product. The dessert separates as it bakes into two layers, a fluffy cake-like layer on top and a creamy custard below. It presented very casual, if you wanted to dress it up for a party I would give it a dusting with powdered sugar, and garnish with raspberries and mint. It is served here, with lightly sweetened fresh whipped cream.
