Genoise Sponge Trend 2026

A light, airy European cake base made from whipped eggs, sugar, and flour, genoise sponge relies on egg foam for its delicate structure without chemical leaveners. Commonly used for layered cakes, roulades, and petit fours, it absorbs syrups and fillings beautifully. Professional bakers and home cooks benefit from its versatile, elegant texture.
