1. To make batter:
2. Combine cake flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

4. To make meringue:
5. Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar until stiff.
6. Gently fold batter into meringue until barely mixed. Pour into lightly greased 11x13 pan or three round cake pans. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, until a pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
