Soft Mocha Sponge Cake

Soft Mocha Sponge Cake - My birthday is only in a few day's time. I am sort of making this cake for my own birthday. I love this cake especially with the coffee smell and flavor in the cake. The cake is so soft and moist and light too. I am a coffee lover, and I love the coffee everywhere in cake and frosting. You can add the amount of coffee you desire. Hope you are inspired with this cake. Enjoy! By the way, Happy Valentine's Day!

Instructions:
- Mocha Sponge Cake
1. Melt the instant coffee in the warm milk, set aside.
2. Preheat oven at 150°C/300°F.
3. In 2 large bowls, separate the egg whites and egg yolks. Set the egg whites aside.
4. In the egg yolks bowl, add the sugar. Mix well until well combined. Mix well.
5. Add the oil and coffee milk mixture. One at a time and mix one at a time.
6. Sift in the dry ingredients. Fold in using a spatula until just until the flour disappear. Do not over mix. Switch to a whisk to ensure well mixing.
7. In the other egg whites bowl, add in the cream of tartar. Mix it until bubbly or foamy. Then gradually add in the sugar, little by little. Mix until stiff peaks formed. This is important to achieve rising of the cake.
8. Add the egg white mixture into the chocolate batter. Use a whisk to gently fold in the egg whites. Switch to a whisk and continue folding in a circular motion. This method will help in elevating the cake later. Do it gently. However, do not over mix at this point. Mix just until the whites are gone.
9. Pour into a prepared pan, 7inch, greased and lined with parchment paper.
10. Bake it at preheated oven at 150°C/300°F for 30 min, then reduce to 140°C/285°F for 35 min (to prevent cracking on top). Insert a toothpick to make sure the toothpick comes out clean.
11. Let the cake cool completely before slicing the cake.

- Mocha Syrup
1. In a small pot, add all the ingredients.
2. Dissolved the ingredients over a low heat.
3. Strain the mixture and set aside.

- Mocha Frosting
1. In a small pot, add the whipping cream, sugar, coffee and cocoa powder.
2. Dissolved the ingredients over a low heat.
3. Strain the mixture. Wrap with cling film and refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour.
4. In a chilled bowl, add whipping cream and sugar

- Chocolate Ganache
1. In a bowl, add the chocolate melt. Then add in the hot whipping cream. Let it rest for 3-5 min.
