CARAMEL FROSTING FOR ANGEL FOOD CAKE



Caramel Frosting for Angel Food Cake image

This is my family's traditional angel food cake frosting. It is so very rich that it may be complete overkill on a sweeter, heavier cake. My grandmother made many a birthday cake using this recipe. In fact, the photograph that I have included is from my older brother's 2nd birthday in March 1961!

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 and 3/4 cups (350g) granulated sugar*
1 cup + 2 Tablespoons (133g) cake flour (spoon & leveled)
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 large egg whites, at room temperature*
1 and 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
optional: confectioners' sugar for dusting, whipped cream, and berries

Steps:

  • Adjust the oven rack to the lower middle position and preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
  • In a food processor or blender, pulse the sugar until fine and powdery. Remove 1 cup and set aside to use in step 3; keep the rest inside the food processor. Add the cake flour and salt to the food processor. Pulse 5-10 times until sugar/flour/salt mixture is aerated and light.
  • In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip egg whites and cream of tartar together on medium-low until foamy, about 1 minute. Switch to medium-high and slowly add the 1 cup of sugar you set aside. Whip until soft peaks form, about 5-6 minutes. See photo and video above for a visual. Add the vanilla extract, then beat just until incorporated.
  • In 3 additions, slowly sift the flour mixture into the egg white mixture using a fine mesh strainer, gently folding with a rubber spatula after each addition. To avoid deflating or a dense cake, don't add the flour mixture all at once. Sift and very slowly fold in several additions. This is important! Pour and spread batter into an ungreased 9 or 10 inch tube pan. Shimmy the pan on the counter to smooth down the surface.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 40-45 minutes. Rotate the pan halfway through baking. The cake will rise up very tall while baking. Remove from the oven, then cool the cake completely upside-down set on a wire rack, about 3 hours. (Upside-down so the bottom of the tube pan is right-side up, see photo and video above.) Once cooled, run a thin knife around the edges and gently tap the pan on the counter until the cake releases.
  • If desired, dust with confectioners' sugar. Slice the cake with a sharp serrated knife. Regular knives can easily squish the cake. Serve with whipped cream and fresh berries.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Tips:

  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them whip up to their full potential.
  • Use a clean glass or metal bowl when whipping the egg whites. Any grease or residue in the bowl can prevent the egg whites from whipping properly.
  • Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing to high speed as they start to foam. This will help prevent them from becoming overbeaten.
  • Once the egg whites have reached stiff peaks, stop whipping them. Overbeaten egg whites will be dry and crumbly, which will make your angel food cake tough.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the egg whites gently. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and make your cake dense.
  • Bake the angel food cake in a tube pan. This will help the cake rise evenly and prevent it from collapsing.
  • Let the angel food cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Angel food cake is a light and fluffy cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be dressed up or down with different toppings. The caramel fluff frosting in this recipe is a delicious and easy way to add a touch of sweetness and richness to your angel food cake. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, this recipe is sure to please everyone.
