BB Cakes & Pastries – Orange Cake Recipe

Hello dear, today we are looking at recipes for Orange Cake. If you haven’t seen our Vanilla Cake Recipe, then we encourage you do that first before going through this.

This fluffy Orange Cake made with fresh orange juice and orange zest gives it that perfect amount of orange flavor. When done, you can completely cover the cake with frosting for a traditional cake or if you love the look of a naked cake, just do a nice “crumb coat” on the outside of the cake. This makes a beautiful naked orange cake!

That said let’s get started…
