Steps:
- Beat sugar and butter with mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Add half the buttermilk and drop the small pinch of baking soda into the buttermilk. Beat vigorously. Blend in half the flour. Stir in remaining buttermilk and beat again. Beat in remainder of flour. Add vanilla (and orange extract, if desired) and blend well. Pour into a well-greased and flour-dusted 1 1/2-pint baking dish and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired. Editor's Extra: Always get your cake into the oven as soon as you have finished mixing it. Baking soda and baking powder start working at once, so don't let the cake sit on the counter-it needs to get in the oven quickly. And know, too, that baking powder loses its strength after about 6 months, so it's a good idea to test it. Stir a teaspoonful into a half cup of hot water, and if it does not bubble up, it's time to replace it.

Tips:
- Measure accurately: Use a kitchen scale to measure ingredients for precise results.
- Use room temperature ingredients: This ensures that ingredients blend together smoothly.
- Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This incorporates air into the batter, resulting in a tender, moist cake.
- Gradually add eggs, one at a time: This prevents the batter from curdling.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Overbaking can dry out the cakes.
- Let the cakes cool completely before frosting: This prevents the frosting from melting.
- Store the cakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: For longer storage, freeze the cakes for up to 2 months.
