Genoise (Olive Oil, Reduced Sugar)

Genoise (Olive Oil, Reduced Sugar) is a classic light sponge cake used in European patisserie, traditionally made by whisking eggs and sugar into a foam before folding in flour and fat; this version uses olive oil and less sugar. It delivers about 12g of fat per 100g, with olive oil contributing monounsaturated fats rather than mostly saturated fat. Though it can be a lighter alternative to butter-based cakes and has a good amino‑acid profile from the eggs, it is relatively low in fiber and micronutrients compared with whole‑grain or nut‑based cakes.
