Different to other orange cakes. Like that do not need to cook the orange before making cake.

I’ve never heard of using the whole orange – I’m intrigued by this one! We have masses of oranges of the moment so I’ll be trying this thanks!

This cake would be so moist and full of flavour. And it’s another recipe that I can use some of our plentiful oranges in. I’m thinking that I’d probably ruin its health benefits by putting cream cheese frosting on it. Yum.
