Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Grease a 20cm springform cake tin or line a similar-size cake tin with baking paper. Using an electric mixer, combine 200g butter and 200g sugar in a large bowl. Beat until light and creamy, about 2 mins, then add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after you add each one. Tip in the flour and baking powder, mix for a few secs, then add the orange juice, zest of 2 oranges and poppy seeds. Stir everything together, then pour into the cake tin. Bake for 50 mins, then remove from the oven. Cool completely in the tin.
- Meanwhile, make the candied orange zest by combining the remaining zest (finely sliced), 25g sugar and 100ml water in a small pan. Bring to the boil and cook for 5 mins until thick. Remove the zest with a slotted spoon onto a sheet of non-stick baking paper.
- For the sauce, heat the cream in a small pan until nearly boiling. Put the chocolate and remaining butter into a bowl, then pour the hot cream over it and leave for 1 min to melt. Stir together until smooth, then let it sit until the cake is cool (if it hardens, just reheat gently). Drizzle the sauce over the cake, sprinkle with the candied zest and serve.

LEVANA'S ORANGE POPPY SEED CAKE
In my never-ending search for orange zest recipes, I came across this one in Levana Kirschenbaum's new book, Levana's Table. It's the most heavenly version of orange poppy seed cake I've seen so far. My only change to the recipe was to move it from the food processor to the stand mixer.

ORANGE POPPY SEED CAKE
This is from the side of a packet of sugar - need to throw it out, so I'm posting it for safe keeping. When I do make it, if I have some spare calories in my diet, I'll be making a lemon cream cheese frosting with poppy seeds in it instead of just dusting with icing sugar.

ORANGE-AND-POPPY-SEED SHEET CAKE
Full of citrus flavor, this recipe includes orange zest, sour cream, poppy seeds, and vanilla paste in the batter and orange juice in the luscious, easy icing. To serve, shower with more poppy seeds and get creative when cutting: Small and large planks, slices on the bias, and even triangles are fair game when it comes to a sheet cake.

Tips:
- To ensure even baking, use room temperature ingredients. This allows the ingredients to blend more easily and evenly distribute heat throughout the cake batter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are combined.
- For a moist and fluffy cake, use buttermilk instead of regular milk. Buttermilk reacts with the baking soda and baking powder to create a lighter, more tender crumb.
- If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- For a more intense orange flavor, use freshly squeezed orange juice and zest. You can also add a tablespoon of orange extract for even more flavor.
- Do not overbake the cake. Overbaking can result in a dry, crumbly cake. 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. This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.
Conclusion:
This white chocolate and orange poppy seed cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy crumb, zesty orange flavor, and creamy white chocolate frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
