Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter

1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
3. Add vanilla extract, Fanta soda, and vegetable oil, then mix well until fully combined.
4. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently to avoid deflating the batter.
