Are you opening up a cake business without at least ONE recipe you're able to adjust to different cake pan sizes??? Sounds a little rushed to me. Maybe you should reconcider and get some practice and confidence in baking first. Sorry if I sound harsh, just think it might end up in a disaster...

Why can't you just multiply or divide your current recipe to adjust it to different sizes?  If you convert your measurements to weights, it'll make it even easier.

Hi Vanilla B!  If your vanilla sponge recipe fills two 8" pans, it should fill one 10" pan.  Or you can double the recipe and fill two 10" pans.  

Is this what you are trying to figure out?  You can do that will any recipe, although it tends to be easier if you measure your ingredients by weight rather than cups, etc.

Exactly. Recipes generally aren't written to only fit a specific pan size. If you want to fill a bigger pan or multiple pans, multiply the ingredients. Smaller, divide them. Generally the only thing that changes is the bake time and that's something you have to figure out with your oven.  I usually just multiply by the same amount across the board. Unless you have a very delicate recipe, this should work.

Sorry and what I meant by convert to weights is that if you're currently using cups, measure the ingredients in whatever recipe you use on a scale even the eggs, then it's easier to divide and multiply the ingredients in each recipe. As far as specific recipes there are literally millions, unless you're asking for something specific or are having issues with a specific type of recipe, it's almost impossible for people to suggest recipes.

If you have your so called "sponge cake recipe" that you have used for so long in the "small business," why want to use another. Apparently it has worked for you for so many years. And you should know how to adjust the recipe for all pan sizes.

agree with Julia1812 and I know someone exactly like you. She tried to get me recipes to start her business. Sadly she stills wants to know how I make my cakes. People like you and her are just a disappointment to the baking and decorating community.  

If want to start you own business there are tons of recipes on the internet that you can try and see which one works for you.

http://www.wilton.com/cms-wedding-cake-data.html

the fourth column in this chart goes by cups -- and a typical cake batter is 5 to 8 cups per recipe -- just have to measure and record the different amounts you can get -- so this chart gives you an idea of the correct amount of batter per pan --

do you consider sour cream 'fancy'? if so then never mind this recipe but otherwise it's a great one for cakes that do not get refrigerated

http://homecooking.about.com/od/cakerecipes/r/blc13.htm

but i use an extra quarter cup cake flour (for a total of 2.5 cups) and i add use 3 egg whites and one full egg -- but i just add them to the creamed sugar and butter -- i do not whip them separately like instructions say to do --

and i mean you can convert it to all weights too if you want

i'm not sure why some of us are a little crabby today -- please don't mind them -- you are most welcome here
