[@peerallywaz9132]

Hi 👋.. tried it today.. want to know is it normal that the sponge cake is soggy type after dipping into jelly 🤔.. or I did it wrong 😔

[@frangipanicook]

Yes it will be soggy, you need to let it set. The jelly will set. Leave it in the fridge. It should be OK.

How to try it without egg

[@frangipanicook]

Hi replace the 4 eggs with 1 cup of natural yoghurt, then reduce the baking powder to 1/2 tsp and add 1/2 tsp baking soda.
