Spectacular Orange Cake




That's what the recipe called itself. I decided to try out how spectacular it was and turns out it's great! It's basically two orange butter cakes sandwiched together with orange curd, iced with cream cheese (which was not enough for the whole cake. You can see the blemishes!) :(. I then topped it off with leftover kiwi fruit from the fruit tarts previously as well as canned mandarins.

The chocolate pieces at the side were made by melting chocolate and piping them onto a piece of foil and waiting for it to dry before sticking it onto the still soft icing.

Not a perfect cake, but at least a delicious one.

Wah, looks nice! Just like the ones you see in the cake shop!

Are you taking up a baking or pastry chef course? Your food looks good :)

Hey, thanks for the comments.

No, I'm not taking a baking or pastry course. I'm just really enthusiastic about baking and enjoy pottering about in the kitchen.

Truth is, I'm more of a tooth fairy than a baking fairy. Future dentist in the making here. :)
