ANGEL FOOD CAKE WITH SUMMER FRUIT SALAD AND RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• For the Angel Cake:
• Preheat the oven to 350°F
• Sift the flour twice with 1/2 cup of the sugar.
• With an electric mixer on high speed, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form when the mixer is removed from the batter.

• For the Summer Fruit Salad:
• Mix fruit in a bowl.

• Put it all together:
