Combine all ingredients and cook until thickened. Put between cake layers.
Icing
Mix sugar, water, cream of tartar (or corn syrup) and egg white in top of double boiler. Stir to dissolve sugar. Set over boiling water and beat with rotary beater or hand mixer until stiff enough to stand in peaks. (With an electric beater, the icing will be stiff enough in 4 minutes.) Remove from heat and continue beating until thick enough to spread. Add vanilla and ice cake. |

Notes: Our aunt Katherine baked wonderful cakes. This one is particularly memorable and delicious. This is how she told me she made it: Make a 1-2-3-4 cake, fill it with the pineapple-lemon filling and ice it with a 7-Minute type icing. (Katherine made a white boiled icing that tasted like Divinity.)
