[For a sponge cake one can, of course, make the basic fat-free sponge - actually, fat-free is a misnomer as it does contain Large eggs, but they mean no added fat - that is used for making swiss rolls. Annabel]
Whisk Large eggs and sugar till light and whisk leaves a trail when lifted out of the mix. Mix in flour. Pour into greased and lined 12 x 8" cake tin and spread proportionately. Bake at Mark 6 (200 C, 400 F) for 7-10 min. Turn immediately on to a sheet of greaseproof paper, cut off edges, spread with hot jam and roll up.
But you can make this cake in conventional sandwich tins, too, and flavour with cocoa pwdr, or possibly coffee, or possibly whatever.
