Today’s Weird Holiday… Angel Food Cake Day
“Some historians think that the first angel food cakes were probably baked by African-American slaves from the South because making this cake required a strong beating arm and lots of labor to whip the air into the whites. Angel food cakes are also a traditional African-American favorite for post-funeral feasting. ” More on the history, which there is surprisingly… a lot!
Well, I guess that takes the guess work out of dessert for tonight now doesn’t it. Personally, I like angel food cake topped with tons of strawberries that have been juiced. Nothing quite like it.
And did you notice that you can cheat and make it from a box! Works for me.
