Prepare the Cake Batter:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a cake pan with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with 1/4 cup of sugar and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Add the cake flour, salt, and baking powder, and mix until smooth.
Whisk the Egg Whites:
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar and continue beating until glossy and firm.
Combine the Mixtures:
Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture in three additions. Add the chopped dried mango and stir gently to incorporate. If desired, add a few drops of yellow food coloring to enhance the mango color.
Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Dust:
Let the cake cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
