Stir in egg whites (unbeaten). Using a large bowl, crumble some of the cake on bottom of bowl; then add a layer of fruit mixture. Add more cake, then another layer of fruit mixture. Continue this until it is all used up. Put a plate on top of the mixture and press down to make it compact. Keep refrigerated until served. It will keep refrigerated for several weeks.
