Tips:

Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges will give your cake the best flavor. If you can't find fresh oranges, you can use orange juice concentrate, but be sure to dilute it with water according to the package directions.
Grate the orange zest before juicing the oranges. This will help release the oils from the zest, which will give your cake a more intense orange flavor.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the cake at the right temperature. The cake should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake the cake at a higher temperature, it will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. If you frost the cake while it is still warm, the frosting will melt and run off the cake.

Conclusion:

Orange Kiss Me Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a light and fluffy texture. The orange glaze gives the cake a sweet and tangy flavor that is sure to please everyone. If you are looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cake, Orange Kiss Me Cake is the perfect recipe for you.
