"I haven't made this but the cake recipe should work looking at the ingredients. It is a whisked sponge so the eggs work as the raising agent. The instructions aren't very clear but you need to whisk the eggs and sugar until they are huge and at the "ribbon" stage where if you drizzle some of the egg mixture over itself it will leave lines on top without disappearing. This is a lovely light type of sponge which usually is quite bland on its own but once combined with fillings is absolutely delicious!"

"Really tasty and easy. Didn't think it would work, but it did! Also looked nicer in real life than t does in the picture"

"I made a 9-inch version of this cake recently and used half the recipe. I baked in a fan oven for 1 hr 45 minutes at 140 degrees and it turned out perfect (skewer was clean). Make sure to line a couple of inches above the top of the tin as the cake rises a lot! The cake was really tasty and improved after a couple days. I wouldn't really rate the chocolate buttercream recipe though. It was too sweet & not much flavour. It was also a bit grainy - not sure if I did something wrong. Can anyone recommend a good buttercream recipe?"
