Make a well in center of dry ingredients and add liquid mixture all at once and beat at medium speed for one minute. Beat eggs whites until foamy.

Refrigerate cake until serving. Pepitas: Melt butter in heavy saucepan over moderate heat. Stir in sugar, nutmeg cinnamon cloves and salt, cook without stirring, until caramelized. Add pumpkin seeds and cook for 1 minute. Transfer to plate to cool. When seeds have hardened, break up any clumps with fingers.
