Soo delicious! I remember my Nonna making this cake and she would add some Strega liquor on top.. It was amazing! She would also add Amaretto DiSaronno to her almond biscotti. We started tasting all these liquors at a young age. Haha! Thank you for sharing all these wonderful recipes, they bring me way back.. Tell Zio Enzo I am waiting for his videos :)
Thank you so much! For breakfast my nonna would beat egg yolks, sugar and add a little Vov liqueur plus espresso. To sum it up…raw eggs, alcohol and caffeine for the breakfast of italian champion children. 😂🤣😂😂 btw nonna used Strega in everything. 💖 I called zio Enzo and he was tickled from your regards. I hope to get back soon for more videos. It was so much fun and so inspirational. 💚🤍♥️ live to share all my recipes. Grazie for watching
@@alessandrasfoodislove My Nonna used to do the same thing with the egg yolks and sugar 😂😂 what a breakfast that was. My “American “ friends would laugh at that 🤣 They used to get a kick out of my lunch sandwich which would be mortadella, prosciutto, etc. while they were eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I always felt lucky to be eating delicious food. I love your videos, keep them coming. You bring us soo much joy. We need Zio Enzo to make some videos also, that would be a treat ☺️
@@filo8582 you have me laughing. I only fly with a mortadella sandwich!! Lol I was offered $50 to sell it but I shared. 💖 I’ve learned to like peanut butter but my passion is Nutella. 😂🤣 Spoke to zio Enzo today e ti saluta. He is tickled that you ask about him. Hopefully I’ll get to go to Italy soon. I consider it a miracle to have gone last month. Let’s see what the future brings. I sometimes stay awake thinking of all the videos I still need to do. Thank you so much for watching 💚🤍♥️

Mary.
Hi Mary, So nice hearing from you! I’m so happy that you enjoyed all the videos. This is a delicious simple recipe that can be enjoyed alone or to create so many wonderful desserts. Thank you always for watching. Hope you’re all well now 💖
@@alessandrasfoodislove HI 👋 ALESSANDRA I AM FEELING MUCH BETTER THANK YOU 🙏 FOR ASKING ,IT TOOK A LONG TIME BEFORE I FELT NO PAIN IN MY ANKLE IT HAS ONLY BEEN THE LAST 3 WEEKS WERE THERE HAS BEEN NO PAIN I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD TAKE SO LONG, BUT I AM HAPPY 😃 IT IS ALL BEHIND ME NOW .SORRY ABOUT THE LARGE PRINT MY KEY 🔑 BOARD IS STUCK .😊💕🍰 Take care all the best to you and your family see you soon xoxoxo. Mary.
Cakes looks wonderful. But at what temperature is your oven? I love and trust your recipes. In fact, I wish I could just run across the lawn to your house and join you for a piece of this sponge cake.
I’m so sorry for leaving it out. Oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 Celsius) for 40 minutes. Come on over!! 🤣 coffee pot is always on. 🥰thank you for watching and for your beautiful words.
Hi Catherine, Just make sure you grease it very it well. Another option is a square or rectangular pan the Pyrex type. Let me know how it turns out. Thank you always for watching. 🍰💖
I tried your sponge cake recipe but I think is to dense to my taste. Sponge cake should be really light and spongy. The flavor is delicious don’t get me wrong. I love all your recipes😋
Thank you so much for watching. Due to the lack of fat in the recipe it is a drier cake. Perfect to drizzle with limoncello. I also add cold espresso and whipped cream.
Hi Larisa, For the plain pan di Spagna I usually use as a base for a dessert like Rum cake so I like a little thicker consistency being that it needs to get wet with simple syrup and/or rum. With the apple cake you want an extremely light mixture yet still keeping in mind the right balance between eggs and dry mixture otherwise it can be too eggy tasting. Hope this helps. I’m super excited to be sharing soon my mom’s twist cookies. Thank you always for watching my channel. 💖
I have a question; when I measure out the flour ( 2 1/3 c) it equals about 342 grams. To get to 300 grams, I am removing about 1/3 c of the flour. 😩. What do I do, use the gram measurement or the 2 1/3 measurement. Thanks
Thank you so much for watching. No leaving at all. What makes this cake rise is the air incorporated in the eggs and sugar when whipped. Few details to follow and so worth it. You can add vanilla extract or the zest of a lemon 🍋 if you like. Thank you 💚🤍♥️let me know how it turns out.
You are not only a great cook and baker but wonderful teacher dear Alessandra. Thank you I have learned so much from you.
Thank you so so much! Really touched my heart. What a great way to end the weekend finding your message. God bless 💖💖💖
Grazie!! So many memories. My mother used to make this cake into 2 layers and fill it with custard. Delicious!
That's so heartwarming! Food and memories go hand in hand. Thanks for watching!
Made my first pan di spagna yesterday and it came out beautiful thanks to you 😘❤❤ your videos are a blessing
Sorry I missed this message. You made me so happy. Thank you so much.

@@juditrea2465 thank you so much! I love it with a little Nutella too. Lol the secret is out. 😃

Hello Alessandra Why do you use more sugar and flour in this recipe vs what you used in the apple one? thank you

Went with the grams.🤞🏻
So sorry. I just saw the message. Absolutely go with the grams. Impossibile to get an accurate measurement with the cups.
@@alessandrasfoodislove thank u ! That’s what I did, lol! On to your limoncello recipe. This is my second batch! Love your recipes
@@karengadaleta7557 you just made me so happy!! I’m so happy to share. 💖💖💖thank you so much!
@@alessandrasfoodislove Having a piece of your sponge cake. Delicious! Very light!
no baking powder or any kind of leavening..thnx
