Dear Lindsey,
Just a technical point regarding the Strawberry and Cream Sponge Cake. I note that the sponge is baked in one piece and cut into two, rather than dividing the mix into two tins and baking separately.
I was wondering if there is any advantage in making the sponge this way.

Hello Alan,
In this particular recipe it works better with regards to portion size and the ratio of filling to sponge.
If you split a 2 egg sponge between 2 by 8 inch sandwich tins each sponge will be much thinner and likely to be dry but the 2 egg sponge baked in one tin bakes perfectly in one 8 inch sandwich tin.
Best wishes
Lindsey
