Orange Blossom Summer Sponge With Strawberries

Orange Blossom Summer Sponge With Strawberries

The sweet layers of the strawberry jam balanced with the soft whipped cream in between the light orange blossom spongecake layers is such a gorgeous mouthful of summer. And, I have to admit, it is quite fabulous to see the reaction on the faces of friends and family when I bring this hero spongecake to the table. Smiles all around!

Technique tip: Before you put the spongecake on your cake stand, spoon a small amount of whipped cream in the center of the stand, then place the cake on top. This prevents the spongecake from sliding.
