Classic Cake That Was a Hit on the Channel

Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites in a mixer until stiff peaks form.

With the mixer running, add the yolks and a pinch of salt.

Add the sugar while continuing to beat the mixture.

Incorporate the orange soda (or chosen soda) into the batter while mixing.

Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the batter, keeping the mixer on.

Add a heaping spoon of baking powder and mix briefly just to incorporate.

Pour the batter into a large, greased baking pan.

Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for approximately 40 to 45 minutes. Avoid opening the oven during the process.

For the glaze, mix the coconut milk (200ml) with the sweetened condensed milk (1 can) until smooth.

Drizzle the glaze over the cake, preferably while it is still warm, so it becomes very moist.
