Really yummy! I only had enough fresh oj to make 1/2 a cup so I used 1/4 cup of lemon juice. I also added 1 tsp of vanilla and baked in a 9x13 inch pan and topped it with a lemon glaze. Will definitely make again. Thank you!

    A great spring & summer cake...would be terrific with fresh fruit like strawberries or blueberries. I baked all the batter in a 9x13 pan for approx 30 min rather than dividing into two smaller pans; worked great, texture was very nice. I frosted it with a cream cheese frosting that I jazzed up a bit with some mandarin extract and orange zest. The 3 yr old would have it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all her snacks if she could. ;o) Thanks for posting!

    Delicious, with a good strong orange flavor! I added 1 teaspoon lemon extract to the cake batter, and used 1/4 cup butter plus 1/4 cup veg oil. Frosted it with a basic buttercream substituting OJ instead of the usual milk called for, cream cheese for half of the butter, and added more orange zest which gave pretty flecks throughout the frosting. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because my cake came out a little crumbly/dry...this may have been my fault though as I slightly overbaked it. Overall everyone loved it & I'll make it again for sure!
