Use about a quarter of the icing between each sponge, then use the remaining icing to completely cover the top and sides of the cake, using a palette knife. If the cake feels like it’s sliding around a bit, pop it in the fridge for 20 minutes before adding the outer icing. It can also help to spread a very thin layer of icing over the outside of the cake, known as a crumb coat, then chill again before adding the final layer of icing. It helps prevent lots of crumbs getting pulled into the icing and keeps everything more stable. John, Whaite (3 February 2018). "Food to soothe the soul from John Whaite's 'Comfort' cookbook".

Beat the butter with an electric whisk until soft and fluffy. Mix in the cream cheese until there are no lumps (but do not overmix as it will become too runny). Beat in the icing sugar until just combined, then cover and chill until ready to use. Put the flour, orange zest, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl and whisk to blend. Rub in the butter until you have fine, inelegant breadcrumbs – do this by hand or in a freestanding electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
