Like a Tart or a Pie, a Sponge Cake can mean Tea Time but it can also very well mean an occasion of some sort, may it be just a Sunday, a Family reunion, a Birthday, an Anniversary. It symbolises a celebration either big or small. It is sheer indulgence and usually a crowd pleaser especially for the sweet tooth within the Guests or the Family.

Chocolate, Almond and Raspberry Sponge Cake.

There is another aspect whilst baking or making a Cake, it is just the simple joy that you will give to others. It is a gift of your time, your energy and your care. Cake is a four letters word like Love and like Care. Of course one can mention hate when a Cake is tedious to do or fear when you are afraid to f*ck it up at one stage or another. There are also four letters words after all. But one must always remember the good time they had, having a Cake or sharing it.

My Birtday Cake when I was nine years old. It was very simple, based upon the quarter Pound Cake, but what made it special was its heart shape.
