Always Tastes Great -Gluten Free Easy Cake-With Variations

Always Tastes Great -Gluten Free Easy Cake-With Variations Recipe

This is the easiest Gluten Free Cake I have ever made. It always turns out great and in my household there is never any left the next day. As with all Gluten Free cakes it is best eaten the day it is baked. This cake tastes like a sponge. It has a soft and light texture. Serve for an easy morning tea, dress it up for a birthday cake or make two cakes and fill with strawberry jam and freshly whipped cream
