Yogurt Sponge Cake

Yogurt sponge cake is an airy and light cake filled with sweetness and amazing flavors. Most of the ingredients used to prepare this cake are probably already in your kitchen.

Once you prepare your Yogurt sponge cake, do not store it in the refrigerator as this will dry out the cake. Instead, store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for about 3-4 days.

You can also wrap the cake slices using a cling film and store them in an airtight container then freeze them for up to a month.
