7 egg whites
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

3/4 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
7 egg yolks
2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 to 4 tablespoons hot water
