Add salt to egg whites and beat until foamy; add cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff but not dry. Fold in the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, then the flour in the same manner. Add flavorings. Bake in an angel cake (tube) pan in a 275 F. oven for 30 minutes, then increase the heat to 300 F. after the cake has risen to its full height, and bake 15 minutes longer or until the cake shrinks slightly and is well browned. Remove from oven and invert pan until cake is cold. Remove from pan and ice if desired. The cake in the illustration is iced with Boiled Icing tinted yellow, and settled in a nest of coconut tinted green. The breen leaves are mode with green icing.
