Steps:
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt twice. Set aside.
- Place egg yolks in the large bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium high until pale and foamy, 3 to 5 minutes. Gradually add 1/2 cup of the sugar, beating until very pale and puffy, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add oil in a steady stream. Add zests; beat for 1 minute. Reduce speed to medium low, and add flour mixture alternately with juices, flour in 4 parts and liquid in 3 parts, beginning and ending with the flour. Set aside.
- In a clean bowl, whip egg whites on low speed until foamy. Add cream of tartar, and increase speed to medium high. Beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar, and beat for 1 1/2 minutes, or until whites are glossy and stiff peaks form.
- Stir a quarter of the whites into the flour-yolk mixture. Fold in remaining whites carefully, trying not to deflate the batter. Gently pour into an ungreased 7-inch tube pan. Bake until cake is golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
- Remove cake from oven, and invert immediately. Cool completely in pan. Run a knife around sides to loosen, and remove outer part of pan. Run a knife along bottom and around tube to loosen and remove tube. Turn upside down onto a cake round slightly smaller than the cake, and slice horizontally into 3 layers using a serrated knife.
- Spread half the filling on the bottom layer, and cover with the middle layer. Spread remaining filling on middle layer, and cover with top layer. Refrigerate overnight, or until set. Brush off excess crumbs with a dry pastry brush.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare meringue, and spread it all over cake, swirling with an icing spatula as desired. Set cake, still on cake round, on an oiled baking sheet, and place in oven. Bake, watching carefully, until meringue is brown around edges and beginning to brown elsewhere. Transfer to a serving plate and serve as soon as possible. Slice using a knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 3 8-inch cake pans.
- Mix the cake mix, water, eggs, and vegetable oil as directed on the package, and pour batter into prepared cake pans.
- Bake the layers in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in pan at least 20 minutes or until completely cool.
- When the cake is completely cool, run a paring knife between the cake and the edge of the pan. Hold the cake pan on its side and gently tap the sides of the pan against the counter to loosen it. Cover the cake pan with a plate or cooling rack, and invert it to tip the cake out of the pan and onto the plate.
- To fill and decorate, lay a cake layer onto an oven-safe plate, and spread half the lemon filling over the bottom layer. Place a second layer gently on the lemon filling, and spread the rest of the filling on the top of the second layer. Top with third layer.
- Beat the egg whites in a bowl until they form stiff peaks, then gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until the mixture forms a fluffy, shiny meringue. Spread the meringue all over the cake like a frosting, spreading it into decorative peaks and swirls. Place the decorated cake back into the hot oven, and bake until the peaks and swirls of meringue are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Refrigerate 4 hours to overnight, then serve cold.

Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Butter three 6-inch round cake pans then line the bottoms with parchment.
- In a large jug or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the egg whites, whole egg, milk and the vanilla extract. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the cake flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix on low speed for 1 minute. (You can also do this by hand)
- Add the cold butter and continue to mix on low speed until the mixture has a fine, crumbly texture.
- Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients in 2 batches, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl after each addition, and mix on medium speed until light, fluffy, homogenous and well incorporated. Fold once or twice with a rubber spatula to ensure the batter at the bottom of the bowl is incorporated.
- Divide the batter equally among the prepared pans. Bake until a cake tester comes out with a few crumbs when inserted into the center, 25 to 35 minutes. Check the cakes at 25 minutes and judge the timing from there to avoid overbaking.
- Meanwhile, wash and thoroughly dry the stand mixer bowl.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans on wire racks for 20 minutes, then remove them from the pans and peel off the parchment.
- Carefully slice each cake in half horizontally with a serrated knife to make 2 even layers. Generously spread lemon curd between the layers of the cake, leaving a 1/2-inch border all around and stack the layers on a cake stand or platter. Set aside.
- For the Meringue Frosting: Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a saucepan that can hold the stand mixer bowl above the water. Place the egg whites and sugar in the stand mixer bowl and whisk by hand to combine.
- Set the bowl above the boiling water and continue whisking constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm to the touch about 3 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on high speed until medium-stiff glossy peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the salt and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Immediately spread the meringue frosting all over the cake with an offset spatula and make swirls all around. Toast the meringue frosting, as desired, with a kitchen torch. Serve immediately or store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
SCOTT BIEBER'S LEMON MERINGUE CAKE
Although its meringue peaks make it look exactly like a pie, underneath the topping is a moist, lemon-flavored cake. This recipe, featured on "Martha Stewart Living" TV and brought to us by executive chef Scott Bieber, of Taste restaurant in New York City, combines elements of two classic confections into a singular dessert.
