Feather Cake

This cake is not suitable for advance preparation. The recipe specifically notes it should be eaten fresh, as the simple formula lacks the fat and moisture needed for extended shelf life. The delicate crumb becomes dry and crumbly within 24 hours.

Store covered at room temperature and consume within 24 hours for best texture. This cake can be wrapped tightly and frozen for up to 1 month; thaw at room temperature for 2 hours before serving. Note that the texture is best within hours of baking.
