Making a very small chocolate sponge

Hello Maggie,

A 3 egg sponge mix will make 4 x 4 inch cakes.

So, for an individual 4 inch round sponge I’d use 50g beaten egg and the same amount of sugar, butter and SR flour (with ½ a teaspoon of baking powder if you’re doing the all-in-one method).

To make it into a chocolate sponge I’d add a rounded teaspoon of cocoa to the flour.

I’d avoid the fan setting if you can in favour of a conventional setting but if you can’t reduce the temperature in the recipe buy 20 degrees. 

I’m not sure how long it will take to cook but I’d try 15 minutes.

Best wishes

Lindsey
