Number Of Ingredients 10

GLAZE:
1 package DUNCAN HINES® Deluxe Yellow Cake Mix
1 package (3.4 ounces) JELL-O® Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding
1/2 cup SUN DROP® soda or lemon soda
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup water
4 eggs
1/2 cup SUN DROP® soda or lemon soda
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 12-cup (10-inch) bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Combine all ingredients in large bowl; mix well. Do not over-mix. Pour mixture into prepared pan. Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. While cake is still in pan, poke holes into cake with handle of wooden spoon. Ladle approximately half of glaze over cake. Allow cake to set 10 minutes. Turn cake out onto round plate then drizzle remaining glaze over top of cake. Serve warm or at room temperature. Note: Cake is best when served warm. Glaze: Combine soda, sugar and butter in small heavy saucepan. Heat over medium heat; stir until all ingredients are melted.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help your cake batter mix more evenly and bake more consistently.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will create a smooth, even batter and help your cake rise properly.
  • Gradually add the eggs to the batter, one at a time. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make your cake tough.
  • Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

The Sun Drop Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that's perfect for any occasion. With its moist, fluffy texture and tangy orange flavor, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, be sure to give the Sun Drop Cake a try!
