Few products evoke as much familiarity as sponge cake. Present at breakfasts, celebrations, afternoon snacks and high-end pastry recipes, this classic confectionery product has successfully reinvented itself generation after generation, becoming one of the most versatile creations in the bakery and pastry sector.

Sponge cake dates back to Roman times, and its name comes from the Latin bis coctus, meaning “twice baked”, a technique once used to preserve bread and sweet doughs for longer periods.

Over time, recipes evolved thanks to the incorporation of sugar and whipped eggs, giving rise to lighter and fluffier preparations.

Today, sponge cake can be presented in individual or family-sized formats, serving as the perfect base for cakes, chilled desserts, sweet snacks or premium creations. In addition, it allows for countless combinations of ingredients, flavours and textures: chocolate, yogurt, fruits, nuts, coffee, spiced flavours, as well as wholegrain or reduced-sugar versions.

New market trends are also driving the development of more innovative solutions, such as clean label recipes, high-protein products, premium frozen formats and creations adapted to new consumer habits.
