  hi there just as the top person has said im not a very good at baking either but with this particular recipe i couldnt go wrong and i didnt :-) every time i have made this, it comes out great even to the extent that my friends have said i had bought it haha.anyway i would highly reccomend this. also my mum gave me a tip that has made this much lighter and fluffier which im sure u will all tell me now u know about but according to me mum if u sieve the flour 3-4 times it does make the sponge lighter and fluffier. and ive just made it that way just now for me girlfriend tomorrow hope she likes it :-)
