How to make it
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- egg whites should sit out on the counter until they are at room temperature.
- Sift together, potato starch, cornstarch and granulated sugar. Set aside. this is the "flour" and sugar mixture...
- In a large mixing bowl, combine egg whites, salt, cream of tartar and extracts.
- Beat on high speed with electric mixer until stiff and stand in peaks. About 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Do not over beat. Reduce the speed to med. high and sprinkle in the 1 cup of sugar (1 tablespoon at a time), for about 1 minute. Turn mixer to lowest speed and sprinkle in the sifted flour and sugar mixture for about 1 1/2 minutes.
- Using a rubber spatula, carefully pour out the mixture into the ungreased 10 tube pan. Bake 35 minutes at 375. Invert pan (hang on a narrow jar) and let cool completely. Note....... that it is better to slightly over bake this cake than under bake. It is a delicious soft, light angel food cake that freezes very well and thaws wonderfully. Great for for the whole family

I love this cake! My mom used to bake something very similar to this when I was younger. The potato starch makes the cake so soft... it is wonderful! 5*****

I just made this cake it was excellent. I love it topped with fresh peaches(sliced with sugar) and whip cream. It is a version of strawberry shortcake but it is peaches.
