How many of you believe that his mom is the greatest mom in the whole world raise his hand! I agree. Raising my hand too:)

I am blessed with a wonderful mom, who has always been there for me, present at every milestone I reached. She is soft, smart, fun, talented and absolutely patient. In fact, if patience had a face it would be my mom’s.

I love you mom and so proud of you and proud to apply in my life, all the beautiful things you taught me.

My daughters, Axel and Kaia, have been drawing me and making me cards all this week for Mother’s day so cute of them but I need a bigger house now with more walls to hang all their little masterpieces;-)

I wanted to bake a cake for my mom and started browsing the net for inspiration when I saw Angel Food cake. I love Angel cakes and I love the name!! Angel Food! Of course ANGELS this is what moms stand for:)

There’s a reason angel food cake is a favorite vanilla sponge cake, it’s fluffy as air, fat-free as it uses no butter or oil and tastes like heaven. It’s simple and best served with vanilla sauce, but can also be consumed with whipping cream and strawberries.

Here below I’m sharing the Angel Food Cake recipe, I found online. I actually found this same 6-ingredients-recipe  almost everywhere. I prepared my cake as per LovetoKnow‘s instructions and turned out to be a success!!. Hope you’ll get the same results and get to bake your own Angel food cake.

Happy Mother’s Day!
