Dextrose is much sweeter than Sucrose, and is a great subsitute for sucrose when you are looking to reduce the sugar content or reduce the volume that sugar is taking up in a baked good. I've read estimates that dextrose 10-16 times sweeter than regular sugar, but I don't have exact numbers. The best thing to do is taste your batter while you're adding the dextrose. I have made cookies, muffins and brownies with dextrose and they turned out well. Given my experience, I think it would work with cake as well. If the taste it too noticably different than just using sucrose, try adding some sucrose or fructose in addition to the dextrose. Hope this helps.
Dextrose is only 70-80% as sweet as sugar. The preceding answer is incorrect. I don't think you can easily substitute. Will definitely require some experimentation.

Why use Dextrose in sponge cake?
Dextrose is often used in sponge cake recipes because it enhances sweetness while contributing to the cake's moistness and tenderness. Its smaller molecular structure allows for quicker absorption, which can improve the cake's texture. Additionally, dextrose can aid in browning during baking, resulting in a more appealing color and flavor. Overall, it helps achieve a light, airy structure that is characteristic of a well-made sponge cake.
