KONA LEMON MERINGUE CAKE

This is so unbelievably unlike anything I've ever seen I just have to call your attention to it but it will also appear on Hector's blog.

Hector writes: clever! a favorite pie presented as an elegant cake. a simple sponge cake, butterless and oil free. whipped eggs, plain vanilla. perhaps too plain. my secret weapon is adding an invisible hint of coffee extract, just to lift vanilla tones and tame eggyness!

Héctor, tu imaginación y habilidad me maravillan.

It is so gorgeous! Too pretty to eat - though I wouldn't mind a slice if offerred, :).

He piped that meringue? I would have liked to see a picture of him doing so. It looks absolutely amazing.

Absolutely gorgeous, Hector! Best-looking meringue I've ever seen. Bet it was light and delicious, too. Your cakes make me smile.
