  • Replacing eggs with mashed banana, apple compote, chia seeds etc. will provide binding and thickness to the cakes.

  • Vinegar/lemon juice should be added to provide acidity, which will help baking soda to perform better. 


  • Adding milk powder/ condensed milk will help to achieve good internal structure and flavour. 


  • It is very important to bake egg free sponges on a medium temperature to ensure that they are  baked well through center. 


  • Egg free sponges must be cooled down properly before unmoulding, this will help to maintain the structure.
