Looking for a light and fluffy yellow cake recipe.?

I have tried tons of recipes and none of them are to my liking. They tend to be heavier, tasting closer to a pound cake then a bakery-type birthday cake. I'm looking for something that resembles the birthday cakes at Tiffany's in Clinton, MD or the Iverson Mall, or Gallo's in Mt. Laurel, NJ or even the Strawberry Shortcakes at Tiffany's in The Gallery (Phila, PA). I'm dying to know how I can get my yellow cakes to be a lighter texture. I feel like my recipes are missing some secret ingredient. Thanks in advance!Looking for a light and fluffy yellow cake recipe.?

To make any cake lighter, seperate the eggs, add the yolks as normal, but beat the the whites until stiff peak stage, and gently fold in last. Bake as normal. This will work with any cake, even cake mixes. Good Luck.
