This is another of my sallies into cake baking. I shan't write the recipe out as it is just the same as the Honey and Sicilian Lemon Cupcakes (see back catalogue) with a few changes. I used Valencian Orange flavouring instead of lemon and I used Cava to bind the cakes instead of milk/honey. These cakes actually went better than the lemon ones, the consistency was softer. I made a marble effect in the cake by colouring a small amount of the cake mix orange with a mix of yellow and red food colouring and swirling it into each individual cake. My icing actually went better this time, I think I used too much butter last time. I also bound the icing with cava and flavoured it with Valencian Orange flavouring.
Before going in the oven I swirled in some orange cake mix.
The marbled effect before icing.
Cakes now iced, time to decorate!
I chose to decorate with edible silver balls and mini candied orange jelly slices.
Delicious!
