I'm not sure, but I think sponge cakes can vary in consistency, depending on the recipe. For a tiered cake, you don't want the most delicate kind of cake, but you don't need it to be that dense, either. If you stack it correctly, with the right supports, the weight of one tier on another is not a problem, because the supports bear all the weight. The SPS stacking system comes highly recommended by those who use it. I'd also recommend Sharon Zambito's "Successful Stacking" DVD for further ideas on how to do this right.
