For Tuesday with Dorie this week, I made Odile's Fresh Orange Cake. This is just a lovely, light, spongy orange cake that is moistened with orange syrup.
You could have fancied this up with poached oranges on top, but I have limited time so left out this optional extra.
This is a beautiful cake that is a cinch to make - I'd make it again.
To see what the other Dorie bakers thought of this cake (or the alternate recipe, Matcha Financiers), visit the LYL section of the TWD website.
Isn't this a lovely simple cake? Bursting with flavour!
ReplyDeleteI can see how light it is by your photos! I can't wait to try this.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that it is a nice and simple to make.
That looks so divine Cakelaw!! :D I love citrus in baking!
ReplyDeleteI loved this too! Glad you enjoyed it...
ReplyDeleteIn Arizona this time of year we have citrus coming out of our ears, this looks so moist and delicious, love Dorie's cake recipes.
ReplyDeleteI agree that this simple cake really does taste great by itself.
ReplyDeleteI really loved the texture of this cake, it was so moist. Yours looks so bright and colorful.
ReplyDeleteYour cake looks so delicious and moist. We loved it at our house but now I want to try other variations on it.
ReplyDeleteYours has a lovely color to it- it looks fabulous as is without adding all the poached items. Reminds me of a type of old school, homemade pound cake type dessert. And so quick and easy it could be dangerous LOL. Nice job !
ReplyDeleteThat cake just makes me want to pucker up and dig in, Gaye! Gorgeous. I kinda like it not all "fancied" up:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Gaye...
Who would guess this simple cake can taste so good? You've made the case loudly in favor of this orange cake.
ReplyDeleteI love this version of the cake - perfect for snacking, dressing up, or stashing in the freezer.
ReplyDeleteWow, this cake looks amazing! I would love a slice right now!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely cake! It looks incredibly moist and fluffy.
ReplyDeleteThis was a simple cake. I should make it again and try and get it right. I hope your co-workers enjoyed the cake.
ReplyDeleteThe cake does look super moist and fluffy! And while it may appear simple, anyone tasting it will appreciate the richness of the flavour! Good job!
ReplyDeleteIt was an easy one! Yours looks so light and fluffy :)
ReplyDeleteOrange Cake...now we are talking!! That looks gorgeous, and I love citrus anything! Well, not if you put chocolate with it, but maybe everything else! Really pretty picture of it, too.
