  5. Spread the sponge cake mixture onto a prepared baking pan and bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes, until golden around the edges.
  6. When the sponge cake is done, take it out from the oven and transfer it on a powdered sugar dusted cloth. Peel off the parchment paper or a silicone mat, and roll the sponge along with the cloth. Leave it to cool.
