Steps to make Basic Sponge Cake:

1. Put the oven on to 175 degrees
2. In a bowl mix the butter and sugar together ideally with a hand whisk or with a wooden spoon until the mixture is light and fluffy and then add the beaten egg a little at a time whisking continually.
3. Once the sugar, butter and the eggs are combined, add a few drops of vanilla before sifting the sifted flour into the bowl and mix with a metal spoon. I like to whisk the batter after to incorporate as much air into the mixture.
4. This mixture is enough to make a sponge cake (divide the mixture into two 7 inch lined tins and back for 35-45 mins or it can make 18-24 cupcakes.
5. Once baked, cool on a wire tray until ready to decorate with butter icing.

Sponge cakes are time sensitive cakes, so you don't want to measure ingredients or wait on the oven to heat while you're in the middle of mixing. Measure all the ingredients and have them nearby before you begin. Sift the baking powder into the flour before you begin.

Once you have mastered the art of the classic sponge cake you can then move on to all the variations and never look back.
