I adapted the French sponge cake recipe from Alex Goh's 'Creative making of cakes', with some additions.
Ingredients
(A)
5 egg yolks
20g sugar
(B)
5 egg whites
(C)
130g sugar
1/4 tsp cream of tartar(D)
120g flour
1 tsp baking powder
(E)
80g melted butter
(F)
3 tsp strawberry syrup
1 tsp green tea powder
- Put (A) into a mixing bowl, whisk until light and fluffy. Set aside
- Pour (B) into another mixing bowl, whip until soft peak, add in (C) and continue whipping until stiff
- Mix a small portion of egg white mixture into (A) mixture, then pour the remaining (A) mixture into egg white mixture, lightly fold til well blended
- Fold in (D) til well combined
- Stir in (E) slowly and mix well
- Divide batter into 3 portions, mix in strawberry syrup and green tea respectively into 2 different portions
- Spoon 3 colors batters alternately into a 9" round cake mould
- Bake at 180C for 30 minutes
- Remove the cake from mould immediately after it was out from oven.
The 3 colors in the cake
Kept telling guests the cake has 3 flavors and tested them, most of them got the answer right ;)
