Can You Make Angel Food Cake In A Sheet Pan

Angel Nutrient Cake (Sheet Cake)

How did Angel Food Block get its name? I was pondering this very question while baking this Angel Food Block (Sheet Cake) version a couple of days ago. Wikipedia states; Angel Nutrient Cake "is so named considering of its airy lightness that was said to exist the "nutrient of the angels".

Hither is my ain theory which is completely unfounded by whatever religious doctrine including my own.

Well, yous run into, some angels were having a birthday party and needed a birthday cake. It couldn't exist just whatever old cake; it had to be lighter than air just like they are. They had no way of baking a block, then decided to practice what all expert angels don't do – they came to world and stole the only altogether cake they could conduct. Thus, the name Affections Food Cake was bestowed. It should really be called Angel Food Birthday Cake.

With that decided, I need to set the story straight on this cake. This is non an Angel Food Cake any angel would steal. It is not lighter than air and it is eggier than the traditional variety. But, and this is a very important "merely," it is out-of-this-world succulent and beautiful – peculiarly with the Lemon-Cream Cheese Frosting and Holly Cupcake Decorations.

Whether you believe my version or Wikipedia's of how Affections Nutrient Block got its name actually doesn't thing. All that matters is the taste and this cake is sensational.

I want you to be honest now – doesn't my theory about how Angel Food Cake got its proper name brand the most sense?

The original recipe is establish at Southern Living Magazine under the proper noun "Heavenly Affections Food Cake". Mayhap, I should accept renamed information technology "Sin-sational Angel Nutrient Cake".
