About Slice of school cake

Slice of School Cake is a nostalgic, classic dessert that hails from British school canteens, known for its light, fluffy sponge and simple white icing, often topped with a sprinkle of brightly colored hundreds and thousands. The sponge cake is typically made with basic ingredients like flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and a hint of vanilla, while the icing consists of powdered sugar and water or lemon juice. While delightful for satisfying a sweet tooth, it's best enjoyed in moderation, as it’s high in sugar and refined carbohydrates. On the plus side, the small portion size of a single slice helps with portion control, and it’s free from artificial additives if made from scratch. Though not a health food, it’s a fun, occasional treat that evokes childhood memories for many.
