First cake that I made for my mom!  If I had the time and energy, I would make two layers and fill it with fruits.  But because I have never tried this recipe before, I wanted to play it save and stick with the one layer.   This recipe was a combination between my coworkers recipe and a similar recipe that I found online both with metric and English system measurements.   The cake is still in the refrigerator because I made it very late, so I hope it is edible!

My coworker’s came from this:

Mei Ling's Chinese Sponge Cake

Mei Ling's Chinese Sponge Cake

I think somehow I messed up the recipe.  But I will let you guys know.  If it is successful, I will provide the recipe for the cake and the whipped cream.

Until next time,

    This looks great and I’m sure it taste wonderful. Your mom must be really happy that you made her a birthday cake. It’s so thoughtful and the work you put in it must make her feel proud.

    Ah hemm…my birthday is in April so should I expect a personally made cake too?
