Fold in the sifted flour alternately with the milk and orange juice. Beat the egg whites until they form firm peaks and fold gently into the cake mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared tin and bake in the preheated oven for thirty-five minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool. To make the orange icing, cream the butter and orange rind in a bowl. Gradually beat in the sifted powdered sugar and orange juice. Spread the icing over the cooled cake.Cut into slices and serve.
