Angel Food Cake

The perfect compliment to the strawberry sauce I made was an angel food cake. I looked into a few recipes and learned a couple of tips along the way.

It came out perfect and blew any store bought version or box mix out of the water. Homemade is definitely the way to go.

So here are some important things to keep in mind in order to end up with the perfect angel food cake.
1. Place sugar in a food processor for 2 min before using. This will create "super-fine" sugar and makes that melt in your mouth feel.
2. Egg whites MUST be at room temperature.
3. Beat Egg Whites to medium peaks and sift flour over egg whites a little at a time, folding gently to incorporate.
4. Do NOT grease pan.
5. Absolutely, most definitely DO take the time to make it yourself. It is well worth the effort.
