I don't add milk to sponge cake, just the eggs. When I first started to bake my cakes were a bit hit and miss, my son used to say would I bake a "failure cake" he thought they were ok. Even the best cook/baker doesn't always get it right.
Hi I'm back in time for cake chat An all-in-one mix should have a small amount of rising agent (Idon't) and a mixe all togeteher until really creamy. It's how Mary berry does it. i sometimes add flavouring if using marg - lemon rind grated (a bit) vanilla essence (1/2 teaspoon),
I'll post you the goddess Mary Berry recipe if you like.
Sorry i missed all this - been to see Les Mis Music is rushing around my head now. - wish i could sing

Sorry Nola, took madam up to bed. Right. I think I've got it. How do you know the eggs are going to curdle??
You just get used to what it looks like I suppose.
I just chuck everything in my mixing bowl, and whisk the lot with an electric mixer.
Sometimes it is a case of getting to know how it works out with your oven!
