INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 1 cup cake flour
    • 1 1/4 cups white sugar

  • Eggs and Dairy

    • 🥚 1 cup egg whites

  • Leavening Agents

    • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
    • 🧂 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • Flavoring

    • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

  • Fruits

    • 🍒 1/3 cup maraschino cherries, drained and sliced

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Sift flour three times.

2

Beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt in a large glass or metal mixing bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Blend in vanilla and almond extract.

3

Fold sifted flour into egg white mixture until no streaks remain. Pour 1/2 of the batter into a clean, dry 10-inch tube pan, and arrange 1/2 of the cherries overtop. Repeat once more.

4

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. Cool cake in the pan, inverted onto a wire rack, empty wine bottle, or thin-necked glass bottle; this will prevent the cake from sinking.

💡 Ensure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping; this helps achieve maximum volume.Avoid any traces of yolk in the egg whites to prevent deflation.Use maraschino cherries sparingly to avoid introducing too much moisture to the batter.Cool the cake completely upside down to maintain its light and fluffy structure.Store leftovers in an airtight container to preserve freshness.
