2-1/2 cups (625 mL) sifted cake-and-pastry flour
1 tbsp (15 mL) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
2 tbsp (25 mL) poppy seeds
1/2 cup (125 mL) liquid honey
1/2 cup (125 mL) vegetable oil
2 tbsp (25 mL) finely grated orange rind
1/4 cup (50 mL) orange juice
2 tsp (10 mL) vanilla
Glaze:
1/2 cup (125 mL) orange juice
1/4 cup (50 mL) granulated sugar

Preparation:
Line bottom of 10-inch (4 L) ungreased tube pan with parchment or waxed paper. Set aside.
In large bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until soft peaks form; beat in sugar, 2 tbsp (25 mL) at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
In separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and sa< stir in poppy seeds. Make well in centre; add egg yolks, honey, oil, orange rind, orange juice and vanilla. Beat at medium-low speed until smooth. Fold one-quarter into egg whites; fold in remaining egg yolk mixture in 3 additions just until blended. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake in centre of 325ºF (160ºC) oven for 1 hour or until tester inserted in cake comes out clean. Turn upside down; let cake hang on legs attached to pan or on inverted funnel or bottle until completely cool. Run thin knife around edges; transfer to flat serving plate.

Using skewer, poke deep holes all over top of cake. Brush glaze evenly over top, letting glaze sink in and any excess drip down sides.
