Here’s a recipe for a three-colour layered Angel Sponge Cake with vanilla flavour filling to serve 8 people.

Equipment:

• three 7 inch cake tins

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

• 200g unsalted butter, softened
• 200g caster sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 200g self-raising flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Red and green food coloring

For the Filling:

• 250g mascarpone cheese
• 250ml double cream
• 50g icing sugar

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line three 18cm (7-inch) cake tins with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition.
4. Sift in the self-raising flour and baking powder, then add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
5. Divide the mixture evenly into three bowls. Add red food coloring to one bowl, green food coloring to another, and leave the third bowl plain.
6. Pour each mixture into the prepared cake tins and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean.
7. Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the tins.
8. Meanwhile, prepare the filling by whisking together the mascarpone cheese, double cream, icing sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form.
9. To assemble the cake, place the plain sponge cake layer on a cake stand or plate.
10. Spread a layer of the vanilla filling on top of the plain sponge cake layer.
11. Add the green sponge cake layer on top of the vanilla filling and spread another layer of the vanilla filling on top.
12. Add the red sponge cake layer on top of the green sponge cake layer, then spread another layer of the vanilla filling on top.
13. Decorate the cake with any remaining vanilla filling, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
14. Serve and enjoy your delicious three-color layered sponge cake with vanilla flavor filling.
