There have been numerous inquiries as
to the manner OF making Sunshine Cake for
which a premium has been offered by the

by Mrs. Rnrer was crowded out of eur COL
umns last week by press of matter. Whites
of IL eggs, cup unsifted flour. 1 q cups of
sugar, teaspoonful of vanilla, yolks of 8
eggs, teaspoonful cream of tarter. Put
the cream of tartar into the -four and sift it.
Beat the whites to very stiff froth, beat
the yolks and add them to the whites. add
the sugar carefully then the f1,voring and
last the -four; mix thoroughly but lightly
and quickly; turn into an INCREASED pan
and bake in moderate oven forty-fve min
utes, when done, turn it upside down in a
rest and the cake will fall out itself. 1t is
best to Lake Sunshine Cake in q tin Turk
head the centre lube being longer than the
sides, so that when it is turned out it rests
on the tube, thus allowing the air to pass
around the cake.
