- Rich Orange Filling:
Mix together the first 6 ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil and boil one minute, stirring constantly. Whisk in egg yolks and cook one minute more. Stir in butter. Chill before using.
- Comfort Frosting:
Mix sugar, water, and corn syrup in a saucepan. Boil slowly, without stirring until syrup spins a 6-8" thread (242degrees). Keep saucepan covered for the first 3 minutes to keep crystals from forming on sides of pan. While syrup is cooking, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff enough to hold to a point. With mixer beating, pour hot syrup very slowly in a thin stream into stiffly beaten egg whites. Add orange extract. Continue to beat until frosting holds its shape. Spread on top and sides of cake.
