TWD - Orange Spice Cake

This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Orange Spice Cake. This cake is made in an unusual fashion by adding eggs to fragrant orange sugar, and adding melted butter after that.



There is an optional marmalade glaze - who am I kidding, a glaze is not optional! It makes the cake pretty and shiny and adds moisture and flavour.

I really love the crusty outside of this cake - like a yummy biscuit.

Such a delicious cake! It reminds me of a pound cake with that outer crust. Mine didn't last long enough for a glaze, though.

🤣🤣 That crust was great - I had the end piece and it is so good.

Me, too...the marmalade glaze is not "optional" as it was both pretty and tasty. Your loaf is beautiful inside and out. I can just see some of the lovely plate you used and it looks perfect for that loaf.

The cake without the glaze feels incomplete to me. I wonder why my glaze turns out so dark. After seeing yours, I have no doubt about all aspect of this recipe.
