Does anybody have a recipe for a six egg white version of angel cake.
I can't eat ordinary cake as it contains egg yolk.
I'm dying for some cake but as there is only me, I don't want to make an enormous one. Also two chicks egg whites are equivalent to 6 egg whites.

Really wanted round but suppose that would work in a round tin. What do you think?

I've made Delia's all in one sponge using Two Chicks egg whites in place of the eggs quoted. The measurements are on the side of the Two Chicks carton. I've also made it using GF flour and it is definitely passable. Or absent's Italian Almond and Orange cake is fabulous and only uses egg whites but is quite large. It keeps fairly well though. cupcake
