The difference between chiffon and sponge
1. Operation: chiffon is to rely on whipped egg whites, sponge is generally full egg whipped, but not necessarily, there are also egg sponge. The main difference in operation is that chiffon is whipped egg whites and egg yolk paste mix, sponge is the last to mix the powder in this step is easy to defoam. But this step is done will not be defoamed again.
