Zebra Sponge CakeZebra Biscuitkuchen | March 11, 2025

Let us talk about a zebra cake, it’s a cake that a zebra and a zebra that’s a cake. It’s a cake that made love with a zebra and the result is the most light and fluffy vanilla cocoa sponge that you will ever see in your life. This cake is going to be spectacular, it takes a little bit of scooping and a little bit of mixing but we are going to end with the most beautiful marble zebra cake. Start by sifting through some plain flour into a bowl to create a very light and airy zebra cake batter.

Add sugar to the sifted flour and a table of baking powder and you have your dry ingredients in there just mix them off so they are evenly combined. For the wet ingredients, we have milk and oil, and the cake does not require any other fat, crack four eggs and add to the wet ingredients. Give them a little mix-up, add vanilla extract and give it a last whisk.
Straight into the centre of the dry ingredients, add your wet ingredients, and slowly but surely, begin to work those wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and you should be left with a nice smooth batter. Stop stirring as soon as it is nicely incorporated this is a fantastic batter to use for a whole lot of different cakes and we are going to flavour it by adding a little bit of cocoa powder.

Split half the mix into one bowl then sift the cocoa powder into one of the bowls and mix it well until you have a nice, thick, and dark batter. So, you have a light batter and a dark batter, now we are going to start combing the two in a cake tin lined with parchment paper. Using two ice cream scoops, one for the vanilla and one for the chocolate mix now take a scoop of the chocolate mixture and pop it in the center of the baking pan.

Just work them through one after the other until you are done. Your zebra cake batter is now ready for the oven and we are going to bake until it’s nicely risen and when you insert a skewer it comes out clean. Once your cake is baked, remove it from the oven let it cool and begin to cut the zebra cake. You can finish that off with a glaze if you are fancy but actually, this is a moist cake and a lovely thing to have.
