I am sooooooooo addicted to make something using egg-whites since I always have plenty of it in my frigde from left over cake-order-making. My cakes are dominately using yolks for having a moist texture and preservatise-free.
All in all, I got this recipe from Sedap magazine, January ed. This cake taste good in spite just using egg whites... Pumpkin enrich it by giving a vaguely natural sweet taste and moisten the cake...
