Tips:

  • Use cake flour for a lighter, more delicate texture.
  • Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before beating them; this will help them reach their full volume.
  • Beat the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing to high as they begin to foam.
  • Add the sugar to the egg whites in three additions, beating well after each addition.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the egg whites gently, using a spatula.
  • Pour the batter into an ungreased Angel food cake pan.
  • Bake the cake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For the cherry filling, combine cherries, sugar, cornstarch, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 minute, or until thickened.
  • For the almond glaze, combine powdered sugar, milk, almond extract, and salt in a bowl. Stir until smooth.
  • Drizzle the almond glaze over the cooled cake and top with cherries.
