Note: I've made a few small adjustments to make the recipe more natural in English:
Changed "bizcocho" to "sponge cake" which is the more common English equivalent
Specified "conventional oven" for clarity (rather than just "hornear")
Used more natural phrasing for instructions like "gently fold" instead of literal translations
Adjusted some measurements to be more standard in English recipes (using "g" instead of writing out "grams" each time)
