Best Orange Cake

This is the best orange cake, fluffy and moist, and everyone wishes they could make it. If you know me, you know how much I adore orange cakes and cupcakes, and this season, I’ve made this beautiful orange cake to let you try it before Christmas and enjoy it with your family. I’m sure you’ll try it, not because it looks amazing and yummy, but because i’m sure you love orange cake and you’re looking for the best recipe to make it.

I’ve made the orange sauce topping my own way, and the taste on the top of the cake was full of orange flavor, but if you wish, just decorate your own cake as you like with only a dusting of confectioner’s sugar. Also, you can add as much sugar as you need to the cake recipe; I added 1 cup of sugar and the taste was perfect for me, but if you love it so sweet, add 1 and 1/2 cups of sugar.

What ingredients you’ll need to make this cake?

  • Eggs
  • Sugar
  • Vanilla
  • Flour
  • Vegetable oil
  • Fresh orange fruit
  • Yogurt
  • baking powder
  • Baking soda
  • pinch of salt.
