Recipe Tips

To ensure the perfect sponge cake for the popular Snickers cake, follow a few simple baking tips. I'm happy to share them with you:

  • All products for the biscuit must be of high quality and fresh.
  • Dry ingredients must be sifted to saturate them with oxygen and prevent the formation of lumps.
  • Cool the custard base to room temperature. If you add the hot mixture to the egg mixture, it will curdle and ruin the batter.
  • After adding the flour, stir the mixture very carefully. This is necessary to maintain the airy consistency of the dough.
  • To remove any excess bubbles, before placing the dough in the oven, run a toothpick or wooden skewer over it in a circular motion.
  • Don't open the oven for the first 20-30 minutes. If you do, the cake will sink and won't rise again.
  • The cooled sponge cake should be refrigerated for at least 2-3 hours, wrapped in plastic wrap. This will ensure even moisture distribution and make it easy to slice.

Follow these simple tips, cook in a good mood and you will definitely succeed.
