I made a patriotic cake to celebrate today.
Presentation rules, but it fails in the eating. I used to be able to make a really nice sponge cake, but for some reason when I try nowadays, it always comes out rubbery (unless there is chocolate in it). Maybe it's just that I only used the whites and not the yolks so as to have a pure white middle layer. Will have to conduct further experiments.
