Orange Cake/Cake with Orange Juice

Orange Cake with Chocolate icing/
Cake with Orange Juice and chocolate Icing

Hi Friends,

Today i am here with one more experiment. I always baked vanilla or chocolate cakes, as i afraid of trying something new. Then on my hubby's birthday i baked this cake which came out so soft. I love orange flavor, so wanted to bake orange cake, i have gone through lot of blogs in which yest is used, but i never tried as i think that i might not be able to get yest properly and cake become sour or bitter.

It was first time to try an orange cake so i used Real orange Juice, flavor was mild, i wanted it to be more orangy, i don't know the reason behind it. If you have any suggestion for me then please let me know. But don't think that cake was not tasty of fluffy. it was so soft and melt in mouth kind of cake. and after decorate it with chocolate it was absolutely yum. So guys try it and let me know the outcome.

Notes:-

1. Orange flavor was very mild, i wanted it to be more orangy flavor, will try next time adding yest.
2. I felt that sugar was less, so i used more thick chocolate icing for filling in the center. You can increase sugar by 1 cup or more.
3. Churn or whisk your curd before adding to the sugar orange mix, as i did this mistake and it took so much time to incorporate it.
4. I used broken dry fruits and sprinkler for filling center, if you don't like rocky dry fruits in between your bites, then skip then and use any fruit or just fill with icing.

HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT

LOVE
