This is a homemade European spongecake topped with whipped cream and sweet strawberries. To make the bottom high and fluffy it's important to mix the eggs and sugar a few minutes with an electrical mixer, instead of adding more baking soda as for the American sponge cakes. You can add chocolate on the sides of the cake to give a more luxury touch.
