THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR AN ORANGE FLAVORED CAKE

    Preheat oven to 350°

      Prepare 2 - 8" pans with baking spray and parchment bottoms. This is a sticky cake so do it.

      • 1 Box Cake Mix White (I used Betty Crocker)
      • 1 12 oz Can of Soda Orange
      • 1 Zest Orange
      • 1 Juice Orange
      • 1 tsp. Orange Extract

      Instructions
       

      Mix

      • Mix all the ingredients with a good whisk or mixer. It will be foamy-like and will take a bit longer to blend. I used a whisk until it was all blended well then added the juice of the fruit and zest. I also added 1 teaspoon of my Orange extract that I made, but I think you can pass without it since this, to me, is an anything goes recipe

      Pour Into Prepared Pans

      • Using two prepared 8″ pans divide the batter. It doesn’t look like a lot when poured in the pans but it does rise enough for a layer cake.

      Cool Completely

      • Cool for about 15-20 minutes then transfer to a rack and let it cool completely. I found this cake to be a bit fragile so be sure to cool it enough so that it doesn't break up before the rack.

      Frost

      • This recipe used a buttercream frosting with zest and again a little extract. This could be any frosting or none at all.

      Bake at 350 and until tester comes out clean

        Notes

        This is so simple and fast to do.  A no brainer and it has been around for years and is great for those last minute gatherings with family and kids.
        Use your imagination with the ingredients pairing them for the right flavor like chocolate and cherries or strawberries.  The list can go on and on. 
         
        Have fun with it!
