"Cake flour is a low gluten flour that has also been chemically altered slightly for better use in cake baking."
http://hubpages.com/hub/The_difference_between_cake_flour__all_purpose_flour_and_bread_flour_Which_do_you_need__and_why

The most significant difference between cake and all purpose flour is the amount of protein content in it. The protein content in the flour
influences the amount of gluten created while kneading and leavening the flour. Glutens are nothing but amino acid strands that make the
flour more elastic or less elastic when flour is mixed with water and kneaded since they are responsible for holding the air or gas that is
created within the dough while kneading and leavening the flour. In other words, gluten is the element responsible for making the end
result either tough as in breads or airy and crumbly as in cakes or pastries. Typically, cake flour consists of 7-8% of protein content while
general all purpose flour consists of 11-12% of protein content.
