Orange Delight!


I like it when things come out good! From start to finish this cake is an absolute delicious experience! The fine aroma of fruits while baking this cake is extremely tantalizing! The taste is teasing to the senses, sweet and sour, moist and fluffy... It's a complete "YummmY" experience.

Orange Syrup Cake Recipe:

1 Orange
170g Butter at Room Temperature
140g Caster Sugar
3 eggs
140g Self Raising Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Bicarbonate of Soda
4 Tablespoon Ground Almond

Syrup:
Finely Grated Zest and Juice of 1 Orange
55g Caster Sugar

Preheat Oven for 190C, Grease round cake pan and line the bottom with greaseproof paper.
Finely grate the organs and set aside, Cut the peel and white pith from the orange, then roughly chop the flesh, removing all seeds Blend the flesh in the food processor, until smooth and set aside.
Beat together butter and sugar until pale and creaming, then beet in the eggs one at a time. Stir in orange Puree and grated zest, then sift the flower and baking social over the bowl and fold in. Then Fold in ground Almond. Pour mixture in the cake pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until risen and golden and the inserted skewer comes out clean. Leave to cool for 10 minutes.
Syrup: Put the Orange Juice and zest in a small pan with the sugar, warm gently stirring until sugar dissolves, Bring to vigorous boil then remove from the heat, Pour the syrup over the warm cake and leave to stand for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Tip: I served the cake with the syrup aside and each poured some of the syrup on their piece.

  1. It looks nice, and similar to the one I make with the boiled orange,, and its wise not to pour the whole syrup over the whole cake,, u r like ur grandmother always inventing new things to serve.
