Deanna's Kindergarten celebrated the cultural diversity at it's school by asking the students to bring in a national dish and to wear their national costume. This introduces the children to each other's different backgrounds and learn how to appreciate and respect them.

Mamon is popular in the Philippines and are sold in bakeries all over the country. It's a light and fluffy sponge cake and it doesn't need any filling or frosting. It is always baked in individual portions and not as big cakes.
I found this recipe on the internet. It seems like it's the most popular one. I'm not sure who originally posted it as it's been replicated on many sites. So, to who's recipe this is, I thank you.
This recipe filled 8 brioche tins or one 12 hole muffin tin.
Recipe :
1 cup self raising flour
1 cup caster sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract.
6 eggs, separated
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp cream of tartar
1. Preheat oven to 160degC(fanforced). If using brioche tins, brush with butter, making sure to cover the whole tin. If using muffin tins, line with paper cups
2. In a bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar till soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar while beating. Add the vanilla and vegetable oil.
3. Sift the self raising flour and baking powder twice. Sift once more into the egg whites. Keep beating on low.
4. Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating in between each addition until just combined.
5. Pour into prepared tins about 2/3 the way up
6. Bake for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Let cool completely in the tin before turning out of the tins.
Bon Appetite,
Cherrie
