I ...Hi Aunty Yochana<BR/><BR/>Beautiful cakes on your blog!! I tried your Optima sponge recipe and it yielded exactly the kind of light, soft cottony texture you get when you order birthday cakes from commercial bakeries. It's what I'm aiming for. What I would like to know is, does your Simple Sponge Cake or Traditional Sponge Cake yield a similar texture to the Optima recipe you posted? Or is using the Optima Flour plus Ovalette the only way to get that texture? Can I add Ovalette to your Simple or Traditional sponge recipes to get the same texture?<BR/><BR/>Many thanks in advance for your help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30137456.post-88940563324221634422008-08-19T17:17:00.000+08:002008-08-19T17:17:00.000+08:00Hi aunty,hw ru?
