This entire site is full of fake recipes! None of these recipes are correct. DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE AND EXPECT TO HAVE RESTAURANT QUALITY AND TASTING FOOD!!
Yeah, I have to agree with the other comments, it is not sponge cake, they are ladyfingers soaked in espresso liquer. ;)
ONLY FAT PEOPLE GET PISSED WHEN A RECIPE ISNT WHAT THEY WANTED SHUT THE FUCK UP AND INSTEAD OF BITCHING GET A GOD DAMN LIFE!
IDIOTS
everyone is upset when a recipe isn't what they wanted. There's a reason you use a recipe, so you get what you want. When you stop eating garbage and eat some real food maybe you'll understand you ignorant judgmental fool.
wow, some really harsh comments. if you don't want to use sponge cake, feel free to use lady fingers and then move on with your life
