Genoise Cake Layer ( 6 inch)

Genoise is a classic spongy cake layer, and it’s great for stacking cakes together. It bakes up very tall, so you can slice it horizontally to create cake layers once cooled, you can slice them and store them for future use in the freezer or use them right away.

This is going to sound like a silly question but, if you weigh your egg, and it is not 200 grams, would you add or subtract the white or the yolk to adjust it to the 200 grams? Or is it just a matter of preference on the outcome?

Bake it with mel

This one cake if baked in a 6 inch x 3 inch cake pan will rise all the way to the top and you can then slice it into 3 separate layers. Note that whipped the eggs to stiff peak ( ribbon stage) is the most important part of this recipe as there is no baking powder or other form of leavening agent in this recipe so take your time using eggs at room temp, and adding the sugar slowly.

One egg is usually between 50 to 55g each. The yolk is 20g and the white is usually around 30g. So 200g is usually about 4 eggs ( out of their shells)
