Instructions
- Egg whites: If using frozen egg whites, defrost them at room temperature until they are liquid again. Also, ensure the egg whites are at room temperature and not cold when you start making the cake. If using fresh egg whites, separate them carefully from the yolks, ensuring no yolk gets into the whites. To do this, separate each egg into a small bowl first, then transfer the egg white to a larger bowl if it's free of yolk.7-8 large egg whites/ 250 g/ 9 oz
- Prepare bundt cake tin: Preheat the oven to 350°F/ 180°C. Prepare the bundt cake pan by buttering it thoroughly with soft butter and flouring it well, making sure to reach all the nooks and crannies of the pan. For more detailed information on preparing a bundt cake pan, check out Orange Raisin Cake.
