I use this basic sponge cake recipe for all of my birthday cakes since it’s fluffy enough, yet it’s not too crumbly and won’t fall apart when working with it.
12 eggs
3 cups sugar
2 tablespoons Gefen Vanilla Sugar
4 cups Glicks Flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup oil
3/4 cup orange juice
1 pound Gefen Confectioners’ Sugar
1 stick (1/2 cup) non-dairy margarine
3 tablespoons Gefen Almond Milk
1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla Extract
Beat the eggs and sugars on high for a full 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and mix on medium speed for another few minutes.
Follow the baking directions to make the Circus Tent Cake, Hello Kitty Cake, Construction Cake – or build your own creation!
Place all ingredients into the mixer and beat on high for three to five minutes, stopping to scrape the sides until well mixed.

My first cake that actually worked! Thank you for boosting my baking confidence!!!
It’s our pleasure 🙂
The frosting was quite sweet but its possible i added too much sugar. Overall i would give it 4 stars. It was really quick+simple. Thanks
I made this with spelt pastry flour, swapped out 1/3 cup for cocoa powder for a chocolate cake, and it was delicious!
Hi!
What kind of oil and sugar are best to use?
For sugar, would it work with unbleached cane sugar/turbinado sugar?
Thanks!
Unbleached cane sugar is great and I would use any neutral flavored oil such as canola, sunflower etc.
perfect
Needed extra time to bake, but otherwise it was delicious!
could i halve the recipe?
Yes, you can!
