Separate egg whites from yolk ,it helps to do one egg at a time in a different bowl,in case you break the yolk.
you do not want yolk in your whites.
then throw away yolks.
In a mixing bowl add the egg whites from 10 eggs and beat on high speed,until they are stiff.
Slowly add the 1 1/4 teaspoons of cream of tartar and 1/4 teaspoon of salt continue beating for about one minute..

It will take 50 minutes to 55 minutes.
Take cake out of oven when it is nicely browned on top.

Step 7: Turn Cooked Cake Up-side Down

Turn cooked cake up-side down on wire rack .
If cake does not un-mold use a spatula around the edges to loosen it.
Let cake cool for 45 minutes to one hour.

You can put a stencil over cake top first to make design,or just use all confectioners sugar on top.
