  • 2 packs baking powder (30g total)
  • 3 eggs

Icing

  • 250 g icing sugar

Instructions

  • Prepare the dough: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix with an electric mixer for 3-4 minutes until fully combined and sugar is dissolved. It should reach a silky texture
  • Bake the cake: Lay parchment paper on a baking tray and pour to batter inside. Flatten the dough. It's a thin cake but will puff up in the oven. Bake it for 20-25 minutes at 180 degrees celsius (356 fahrenheit), check it's ready with a toothpick. It should be lightly golden
  • Icing & decorate: Once the cake has cooled, combine icing sugar and Fanta. Spread it all over the cake and add sprinkles for decoration. Let it harden and enjoy!
