1 cup sifted cake flour |
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar, divided |
12 eggs, separated |

1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon orange juice |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
1 tablespoon orange rind, grated |
1 tablespoon lemon rind, grated |
2 cups confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 teaspoon orange zest |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
