I only subscribed to your channel about a week ago; I wish I had found it sooner. I value cleanliness when cooking so it is such a pleasure to watch someone who keeps their work station so neat and clean. You explain the process well. I only had one question about the pan size but, I found the answer in the description. Thank you for being so thorough. Well done. 🖒🍰

Michael Lim for 21cm cake pan?
You are such a role model for both male & female aspiring bakers because you are so neat & tidy. Cleanliness matters a lot when food is being prepared. Wish I could bake half as well as you & be as neat & tidy as you when baking. I also tried your vanilla sponge cake today. Happy with the outcome. Thanks for sharing your expertise & experience with us.

I appreciate the fact that when Michael transfers the batter to the baking pan, it doesn't look like he left 1/2 of the batter in the bowl!

Thank you for the great recipe and tips! Made yesterday and it turned out like a store bought cake! I totally appreciate the weight of eggs in grams as i only had AA sized eggs. Thank you again. Cheers
Hi michael! I made this recipe today and it turns out to be soooo good....thank you so much for showing a very details step by step even how to fold the batter. I tried other recipes and I failed many times 😄 but yours is always good for a beginner like me. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Indonesia 💕
mr. Lim i tried this chocolate sponge cake also. it was lovely. everyone at Home were happy. thanks for the recipe.
Hi Brother Michael.. I tried this lovely recipe. It turned out really yummy. When we watch closely how you do the batter there is a loot for a beginner like me to learn. I used a 20 cm round pan. As I only had that pan. So i increased all the ingredients to 1.25 times the original recipe. I kept to the same temperature and timing. Thank u so much for teaching us. May God bless u

The cake was moist and soft. the frosting was so nice too. My son keep eating the leftover frosting in the bowl, he loves it. Thank you so much for the videos Michael. Much appreciated! i am going to bake this cake again next weekend for my party :-)
I baked this cake today, and it was soooo good. I didn’t want sweet so I put less sugar. Thank you Michael for sharing this recipe.

@michaellim i always follow your recipes and they turn out great! But ive been having a challenge with the chocolate cake!.. it never turns out right nor spongy!.. its hard and at the beginning it takes ages to get to soft peaks 🤦🏽♀️! What could i be doing wrong??.. the vanilla sponge cake is always a hit in my house. Thank you

Yes this chocolate sponge is a bit difficult to execute then the other sponge. Make sure not to over fold your cake batter. Try to learn and focus on your folding skill and you will do just fine.

Hello Michael… i loved these recipes last 3 years, and you really keep it simple, sos much talent ❤
Thanks Michael 👍 chocolate is one of my favourite ingredients in baking. I love chocolate cake, cup cake, brownies etc, yummm.
I made it this morning and it turned out great. Thankyou for your hardwork on teaching us through your video. 😀👍
Your cakes are amazing I've tried a bunch of your sponge cake recipes. Thankyou!
Michael, many thanks for the time you take to explain your methods in such detail. May I ask how you prepare your pan? I see parchment paper lining the base but you use a knife to loosen the baked cake from the side, do you grease the sides or not? With sponges and chiffon this can be important I believe?

Do not grease the side of the pan using my sponge cake recipe. Just a parchment paper on the bottom will do. Good luck and success.

Tried your recipe and reduced sugar to 100g. It's very spongy and tastes great!

I had tried out your vanilla sponge cake recipe and it was so amazing that i didn't have any doubts for this and went ahead and made it. The cake was so beautifully soft and delicious and the flavour of chocolate is so very well accentuated. For a chocolate lover this cake was just paradise. Thank you so much Michael for this recipe as I won't be needing another. Congrats on your great work and keep it up..!!!!!

thank u so much for your videos. i done it well, and it tastes great my husband approve it. so many times i fail in baking but when i came up watching your videos and follow every instructions i have done it well.. thank u soo much. God bless keep up the good work.
Hello Micheal, Hope you're recovering well! 😊 Tried this recipe twice and everyone loved it. I personally like it to be a bit more sweeter. Is it ok if I just add some more sugar to the recipe without changing the quantity of other ingredients?
😄😄😄Thank you for such a good advise. It's better to learn thru mistakes, right? Thank you
I am amazed at the sharpness of your cakes, I am interested to know if you prepare the molds with fat?
Marry Christmas mr. Liem. can i use cake flour for this recipe? thanks
Super and practical way to make a sponge cake.
Nice, I made first time cake, and I done something wrong, I need easy cake recipe for my daughter's birthday, thank you
I always watch your videos, it's nice to see your working on a neat and clean worktop and also quietly.. gives relaxation too.... and I can see your cake risen up but is it quite spongy or moist.. in your videos can you show the spongyness by pressing them once... Pls....😃 god bless you bro....
Anytime I make the cake it squeeze!! I use all purpose flour.. Any items what’s to improve??
Cake wonderful and beautiful and all the recipes featured Thanks 😊 a question I do not find baking powder in the recipe, because you relied on air whites Is it permissible to put One teaspoon Thank

Hi Micheal...can i have 10 inches receipe chocolate sponge cake ...all the while im using your receipe to bake my cake...is so yummy and fluffy
Thanks for your great recipe Michael Lim. I like it so much. It was so easy to be followed. But I have a question, doesn't the cake need to be turned over after cooking? To avoid the cake from fell down after cooking.. Or no need to? Sorry for my broken english*
i did it last night, and it turn out so good for me ( this is my first time baking sponge cake), and i only use traditional oven.. thank you for the recipe and the vidio.. i am really happy :)

hi Michael ,I baked your orange sponge cake ,wow it was fantastic and so soft tank u .
perfect everytime I bake.. so thankful I found your videos.. will the batter changes if I added more sugar? since I have some costumers want more sweetness..hoping for your reply
Michael, seems you are not adding the flour to the egg mixture before adding to the egg white. Won’t the many mixing of the egg whites caused the egg white to collapse (making it lose its stiffness)?
i like the way you baked everything is in order ,clean and soo yum,yum i try this chocolate already fluffy and soft thanks for sharing your recipe Blessings!
Thanks a lot for all these amazing recipe.... Please tell me, if i add some melted chocolate with this batter, is it going to work like this.... I wanted the cake to be more chocolaty.....
Very neat baking video, please let me know where can I get such lovely knife to cut cakes.
Great recipe! Can we change cacao powder to melted white chocolate to make white chocolate sponge? How much white chocolate do you think? Thank you!
would this recipe still work if i used gluten free flour? (my mother has a gluten alergy)
Hi Michael, how to set up the oven? Can I bake the same way as the Japanese cheese cake that you showed before? Thank you for sharing your recipe.
veo que en ninguna de tus cakes usas royal o polvo leudante no es necesario?? Muchas gracias espero respuesta genial me encantó! !!
Thank you soo much for the lovely n simple method receipes can we have red velvet cake receipe uf possible
Thank you for recipe. I really love your recipes. Today I made this cake for my son's birthday

I double the ingredients for pan size 24cm. For pan size 22cm just add 75% more ingredients. That means you need to use 7 eggs. I think you are able and capable to do the calculation yourself.
The most delicious chocolate cake I’ve made! A must try!
Must try I'm getting use to the measurements in gram it work out fine
Hi Michael. Such a great baking teacher. I really learn a lot from you. Thank you. Can you please show how to make butter cake in a long baking pan. Everytime I make it, it will sure to be partially dense. Thank you in advance.
I think for sponge cake we shuld not use baking powder or soda..its softness is build by flufiness of egg..heard one chef saying that..pls clear..and also if we add oil or milk cake is becoming sticky type..michael sir i ddnt tried ur recipe..just want to clear my doubt..i am not an expert in baking..thanks in advance..
Very soft batter and so many ur videos give me supportive thanks chef!!😍
