Gradually beat in sugar by sifting about 2 tablespoonfuls at a time over the surface. Beat until stiff, then fold in orange rind, juice and pulp.
Mix flour and baking powder and sift 4 or 5 times. Fold dry ingredients gradually into batter wth a spatula by sifting about 2 to 3 tablespoonfuls at a time over the surface. Spread carefully into a tube pan which has never been greased. A dry wax paper may be placed in the bottom of the pan, if desired, to facilitate removal of cake.
