Unlike other cakes that rely on chemical leaveners like baking soda, sponge cake achieves its rise through the air trapped in beaten eggs. It has lower liquid content and higher flour content, resulting in a denser texture that offers better support - ideal for serving as the foundation of a fondant cake or intricate birthday cake.
