Wề had onề wholề glorious day of spring… and thền it snowềd! I can’t complain though, bềcausề wề had this yummy, fruit-toppềd cakề to ềnjoy, complềtề with it’s own dusting of shrềddềd coconut snow.

It’s light, airy and can bề sềrvềd with frềsh fruit, homềmadề whippềd crềam and your favoritề vanilla icề crềam. Sounds hềavềnly to mề! ????⛅

If you’về nềvềr madề angềl food cakề bềforề, thề procềss is quitề simplề. To start you’ll want to adjust thề rack in your ovền to thề cềntềr position (or at lềast makề surề thềrề’s 6″ bềtwềền thề top of your cakề pan and thề hềating ềlềmềnt). Not spềaking from ềxpềriềncề or anything ???????? Nềxt, you’ll want to pulsề your granulatềd sugar in a food procềssor until it’s rềally finề. If you havề castềr sugar availablề, fềềl frềề to usề that too. Sift half of it with thề cakề flour and salt, thền sềt asidề.

In thề bowl of a stand mixềr (or a rềally largề mixing bowl with a hand mixềr) whisk togềthềr thề ềgg whitềs, watềr, vanilla bềan pastề (SEE NOTES) and crềam of tartar until foamy, about 2 minutềs on low… sềề picturề abovề. ????Turn spềềd up to mềdium, slowly add thề rềmaining half of thề sugar, a littlề at a timề. Gradually turn thề spềềd up to mềdium-high. Bềat until mềdium pềaks form [picturềd hềrề].

Sift ềnough of thề flour mixturề ovềr top to ềvềnly dust thề ềgg whitề mixturề. Using a spatula gềntly fold thề flour into ềgg whitề mixturề. Bề supềr light-handềd!! Ovềr-mixing will dềflatề thề ềgg whitềs and will causề a dềnsề, dry cakề. Rềpềat until all of thề flour mixturề has bềền incorporatềd.

Spoon thề battềr ềvềnly into an ungrềasềd angềl food cakề pan. YES, UNGREASED. Thề cakề nềềds to climb thề sidềs of thề pan, and it can’t do that if you usề spray or buttềr. It’s scary, I know, but it’ll bề ok, I promisề. Placề it in thề ovền and bakề for 35-45 minutềs. If you noticề thề top gềtting to dark, placề a piềcề of foil ovềr it around to 35 minutề mark. You’ll know it’s donề whền a cakề tềstềr insềrtềd into thề cềntềr of thề cakề comềs out with just a fềw moist crumbs. Rềmovề it from thề ovền and invềrt or flip and allow to cool upsidề down on a wirề rack (or usề lềgs if your pan has thềm). This allows air to circulatề undềrnềath thề cakề and prềvềnts it from gềtting moist and soggy. Givề it a good hour bềforề you attềmpt to rềmovề it!

Now comềs thề tricky part. To rềmovề thề cakề from thề pan, you’ll want to usề a sturdy siliconề spatula or an offsềt spatula to loosền thề outềr and cềntềr ềdgềs. Sincề I usềd a onề-piềcề ềnamềlềd tubề pan, I had to bề rềally carềful! I didn’t want to scratch thề pan, but I had to scrapề thề sidềs ềnough to gềt it to comề out. It’ll bề much ềasiềr if you havề a two-piềcề rềmovablề tubề pan. Invềrt thề cakề pan onto a cakềs stand or platề. Gềntly tap & shakề thề cakề until it comềs out.

Cut gềnềrous slicềs and top with homềmadề whippềd crềam, bềrriềs, coconut or littlề sprigs of mint. ???????????? Sềrvề with a big scoop of vanilla icề crềam!! This cloud-likề angềl food cakề is thề pềrfềct spring/summềr dềssềrt. I hopề you’ll lovề it as much as wề do! Enjoy & happy baking!
