I mix it with my regular bread flour - usually around 3 : 1 wholemeal : spelt. I have used it straight, but you need to adjust your expectations - it'll turn out more like a rye sourdough than "normal" bread. I like it, it's very tasty.
Wouldn't even consider using it for sponge cake though!

Re: Baking with Spelt Flour
I regularly use spelt flour for breadmaking, although I normally mix it with other flour 2 parts spelt flour, 1 part wholemeal flour, or kamut flour (such a great flour!)
