Triple Orange Cake

“What a nice change from chocolate! Seems like we always make chocolate! This cake was so easy to make. It has a very refreshing orange flavor. I made it in a bundt pan and drizzled the frosting over, it was beautiful. Only problem I had was keeping my husband out of it!! Thanks for another winner, Lennie!”

“Now this is what we in the South call a hum-dinger. The cake was awesome and perfect for our Halloween party. Thankfully, I was able to find the orange cake mix without any trouble. Beautiful color and very, very moist. Thanks so much for a totally yummy dessert.”

“I made this cake for my Dad, who loves anything with orange.He loved it and wanted to make sure that I never lose this recipe!I made the cakein a bundt pan, and it came out absolutely beautiful.I also used egg substitute, since my Dad had open heart surgery several years ago & is still very careful about cholesterol.I think I will experiment with other flavors too, such as strawberry.This one’s a winner, Lennie – thank you!-M”

“I made the lemon version because I could not find orange cake mix.It was delicious,very moist and citrusy.I also made it in a bundt pan.An excellent dessert!”

“This definitely is one that deserves more than a five and I see I am not the only one who thinks so! I made this for my best friend on her birthday and she made some happy noises while she was eating it and then couldn’t STOP eating it! I like that it is different than the traditional buttercream or whipped cream and is special enough for a b-day cake. “

“this was very good and easy to make!I messed up thew fist time by not adding the water,so I ran back to the store and they were out of orange cake mix! I used pineapple instead,with pineapple jello and pineapple juice.(I promise to make the orange next time!! :)”

“What a wonderful cake!Very easy and simple, yet delicious.I think next time I will top it with a little whip cream!Thanks for the great recipe!”

“this was great the cake went fast and its perfect for a nice spring or summer meal”

“This is really a great cake!Sometimes you need a break from the norm, this will do just fine.Quick, easy, very tasty.”

“I made this for my son’s birthday. He loved it and said he wants it again. Thank you for the recipe.”

“Made this for trick or treat last Sunday & passed out pieces to the grownups.They ALL wanted the recipe – huge success!Also made in a bundt pan and it looked soooo pretty and was extremely moist.Must say this one’s a keeper.Thanks, Kelly”

“Easy, delicious, and versatile!I made the lemon version this time, and will be happy to try orange next time!”

“Used a box of Duncan Hines pineapple upside cake mix and a box of Jello island pineapple to make two layers.It is very tropical tasting and very yummy.I frosted it with Recipe#44051 and it turned out quite well.Coconut on top might even perk it up a bit!Thank you for posting!”

“I don’t like everything orange flavored but this cake is perfect.I made in a bundt pan and after it had cooled some poked with a meat fork and poured the glaze on.After almost all of the glaze was absorbed I turned it out of the pan.The result — a beautifully glazed moist cake.I’m making another for a wedding reception in a few weeks & I’ll try to remember to take a few pictures.”

“I have been making at least a cake month for birthdays at the Spa I work at and this one was got the most reviews.I used two fresh squeezed oranges that came out to 1/3 cup and also added zest.I am already getting more requests for this one!”

“I used the cake direcions,as written, but made cupcakes for a summer party. In place of the glaze, i used a creamcheese frosting with some orange zest sprinkled on top. Today I substituted the orangecake mix for a strawberry cake mix and strawberry jello. Baked it in two 9″ pans. Used the creamcheese frosting but this time I blended in macerated fresh strawberries. Even though it’s November, desert made it feel like summer !”

“I’ve tried 4 orange cake recipes, and this one is definatly the best so far. I’m only giving 4 stars because i didn’t drop dead (i rarely give 5 stars) but it is very good.I made orange glaze and decorated with mandaring oranges. maybe try w/ some orange zest.”

“Have made this twice now.It is so yummy!Thanks for a great recipe Lennie.”

“I have, in the past, used the lemon version of this recipe and loved it, so decided to try the orange. Since we have a lot of oranges in Florida, I used orange juice instead of water, added orange zest and about a tsp. of orange extract. Great flavor, very moist cake and lovely color. The recipe does not state when topour on the glaze. Since I was using a bundt pan I unmolded the cake after ten minutes and poured the glaze on the still warm cake without poking holes in it. Worked beautifully.”

“Absolutely wonderful!We polished it off for dessert without a problem. :)Next time, we’re doubling the glaze recipe.We really loved the extra saturated portions.”
