Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer until frothy, then gradually add 2/3 cup of the granulated sugar, beating until thick.
- In a small bowl, combine the orange rind and juice and add to the yolk mixture alternately with the flour, beating until well blended.
- Wash and dry the beaters.
- In another large mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt.
- Beat until soft peaks form, then gradually add the remaining 2/3 cups granulated sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture, scrape the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan and bake until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean (about 1 hour and 10 minutes).
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert on wire rack to cool completely.
- Frost the top and sides of the cake with Creamy Orange Frosting and let the cake stand for at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:
- In large mixing bowl, cream the sugar and butter together with an electric mixer until fluffy and smooth.
- Add the citrus rinds and juices and beat until the frosting is very smooth.
Tips:
- Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use orange juice concentrate, but be sure to reduce the amount of water you add to the frosting.
- Make sure the butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start making the frosting. This will help the frosting come together smoothly.
- If you want a thicker frosting, add more powdered sugar. If you want a thinner frosting, add more milk.
- You can use this frosting on cakes, cupcakes, or cookies. It's also great as a dip for fruit or pretzels.

This creamy orange frosting is easy to make and full of flavor. It's perfect for any occasion, and it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious and versatile frosting, give this orange frosting a try.
