1 3/4 cups plus 2 Tbsp. sugar
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon light rum
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
1 3/4 cups egg whites (about 13 to 15 eggs)

1
Preheat oven to 375u00b0. Sift together sugar, flour, and salt in a bowl. Combine lemon juice, vanilla extract, rum, and orange extract.
2
Beat egg whites and cream of tartar at high speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until stiff peaks form; gently transfer egg white mixture to a large bowl.
3
Gradually fold in sugar mixture with a large spatula, 1/3 cup at a time, folding just until blended after each addition. Fold in lemon juice mixture.
4
Spoon batter into an ungreased 10-inch angel food pan with feet.

Bake at 375u00b0 for 34 to 38 minutes or until a long wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Invert cake, and let cool in pan 1 hour. Remove cake from pan to a wire rack, and let cool completely (about 30 minutes). Cut cake horizontally into 3 equal rounds.

Spread Lemon Curd Filling between layers, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Cover and chill 1 hour.
