Making your own angel food cake is much more appealing than that off-white and bland styrofoam you can buy from your local grocery store's bakery. Unlike most cakes, is actually very airy and light. It is fairly healthy to eat as well. Angel Food makes a great base for a myriad of deserts like strawberry shortcake.
