Colonial Sponge Cake Preparation
Mrs. Alice Van Boven This recipe is an expansion by the donor of a recipe received by her mother from her aunt in 1884. The original read: Take the weight of eggs in sugar and half the weight in flour; juice and grated rind of lemon. Similar cakes, indeed, were made in colonial America, usually called light cakes or soft cakes. Beat the egg whites light. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks. Beat the sugar into the yolks gradually; add the lemon juice; add the flour and mix in; add the egg whites, folding them in gently. Bake in a moderate oven (350ΓΈ) in a pan with a tube in it for about an hour. Cup cake pans may also be used with less baking time.
