White sponge cake with rose petal jelly


I would like to make a mild tasting white cake to show off the colour and fragrance of wild rose petal jelly, I modified the standard Genoise cake recipe removing egg yolk and use coconut oil instead of butter. The result is surprisingly good, very soft dense spongy structure and moist, like half way between cake and mousse.
