Ingredients
VANILLA FROSTED ANGEL FOOD CAKE
- 80 g cake flour
- 340 g (425 ml) Huletts White Sugar
- 360 g egg whites (±9 extra-large eggs)
- 5 ml (1 t) cream of tartar
- 10 ml (2 t) vanilla essence
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 10 ml (2 t) lemon Juice
- 500 g (960 ml) Huletts Icing Sugar
- 500 g butter
Method
- Preheat the oven to 165 ºC.
- Combine the flour and half the sugar.
- Whisk the egg whites, other half of the sugar and cream of tartar to a thick meringue.
- Combine the lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla essence.
- 5. Gently fold the flour mixture, the lemon mixture and vanilla essence into the meringue.
- Transfer mixture into an ungreased chiffon cake tin and bake for 45 minutes.
- Once baked, remove the tin from the oven and gently turn the tin over onto a worktop, allow to cool completely. This will set the shape so that this very light cake does not collapse.
- Beat the icing sugar and butter together until creamy consistency.
- Once cooled release the cake from the tin and cover with icing.

BUTTER: DO NOT Microwave
Don’t be vanilla
Split a vanilla bean in half and sink in a jar full of sugar. Let it sit for a week for delicious vanilla-perfumed sugar. Perfect for baking, great in coffee or tea, or sprinkled over oats.
