Sponge cake is a simple and delicate cake, known for its fluffy texture and mild flavor. The version with just 3 ingredients is even easier and quicker to prepare.
This cake is made with eggs, sugar and wheat flour, although some recipes may also use cornstarch or baking powder. It's important to beat the eggs and sugar well until the mixture triples in volume and becomes very aerated. Then gradually add the sifted wheat flour and mix gently with a spatula so that the dough doesn't lose the air that has been incorporated.

PREPARATION METHOD
Start by beating the eggs at high speed until they have tripled in volume and become light, which can take around 10 to 12 minutes. Then gradually add the sugar and continue beating for another 5 minutes. Using a sieve, gently incorporate the flour into the dough so as not to lose the air that was incorporated during beating. Pour the batter into a baking dish lined only on the bottom with parchment paper and bake in a preheated medium oven for about 40 minutes or until golden brown and firm (test with a toothpick to see if it's ready). When ready, unmold the sponge cake while still warm and leave to cool before serving.
