  • Sift flour with salt and baking soda.
  • Combine buttermilk with lemon and almond extracts then alternately add sifted flour mixture in thirds with buttermilk mixture.
  • Beat well after each addition.
  • In a second large bowl beat egg whites until frothy then add cream of tartar and remaining 2/3 cup sugar gradually and continue beating until egg whites are stiff but not dry.
  • Fold butter flour mixture into beaten egg whites working carefully so as not to lessen the volume of egg whites.

  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and allow to 10 minutes in pans then turn out and cool completely on wire rack.
  • When thoroughly cooled fill and frost cake with the lemon icing.
