Genoise

This rich, light cake is made with flour, sugar, eggs, butter and vanilla. It's similar in texture to a Moist Sponge Cake. It was developed in Genoa, Italy, adapted by the French and is now baked by gourmet cooks throughout Europe and the United States. Genoise is an extremely versatile cake and is used for many elegant presentations such as Petits Fours, cake rolls and Baked Alaska.
