SOFT ORANGE BUNDT CAKE



Soft Orange Bundt Cake image

I found this recipe on Allrecipes and when I made it I couldn't believe it! It is fantastic! The original recipe calls for lemon extract but I always use orange extract for a more orange flavor. The glaze isn't really a glaze but soaks into the cake. You can use powdered sugar instead of granulated for a more glaze effect if you like.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh oranges will give your cake the best flavor. If you can, try to use organic oranges.
  • Zest the Oranges Finely: The finer you zest the oranges, the more flavor you'll get in your cake. Use a microplane grater or a zester with small holes.
  • Cream the Butter and Sugar Thoroughly: This will help create a light and fluffy cake. Cream the butter and sugar together for at least 2 minutes, or until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
  • Add the Eggs One at a Time: This will help prevent the cake from curdling. Beat each egg into the batter until it is completely combined before adding the next one.
  • Do Not Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Cake in a Preheated Oven: This will help the cake rise evenly. Preheat the oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start baking the cake.
  • Cool the Cake Completely Before Frosting: This will help the frosting set properly. Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack before you frost it.

Conclusion:

This classic orange party cake is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy texture, tangy orange flavor, and creamy frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit. Follow the tips above to make sure your cake turns out perfect. Enjoy!
