• 10. Remove from oven and cool completely in pan upside down as you would a Angel Cake.
• 11. When completely cooled, run a knife around outer edge, and around tube to remove cake.
• 12. Tips, use a two piece tube pan. When I first read this recipe I didn't know if the pan should be greased or ungreased, turned upside down or left right side up for cooling. So I went with trial and error and treated it as an angel cake, and it worked fine. If you use a one piece tube pan I would place a piece of parchment on bottom for easy removal. Also please use both of the teaspoon each of vanilla and almond the combination makes the true flavour of an angel cake.
• 13. Please try the recipe, I am sure you will enjoy it very much. This is one cake just like grandmas.
