Place the eggwhites in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat until the egg whites form stiff peaks but are not dry. Fold in the 1 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Add the vanilla and lenon extract. Slowly sift small amounts of the flour mixture over the batter and fold it in until all flour is incorporated.
Pour the batter into an ungreased 10" straight-sided tube pan. Bake 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn upside down to cool. Let stand for 11/2 hours.
