This is what I know of cream of tartar.

Cream of tartar is is the common name for potassium hydrogen tartrate, an acid salt that has a number of uses in cooking
Cream of tartar is best known in our kitchens for helping stabilize and give more volume to beaten egg whites. It is the acidic ingredient in some brands of baking powder. It is also used to produce a creamier texture in sugary desserts such as candy and frosting. It is used commercially in some soft drinks, candies, bakery products, gelatin desserts, and photography products. Cream of tartar can also be used to clean brass and copper cookware.

Icing made with egg whites is called royal icing.
Cream of tartar is added to give volume to beaten eggs.
