Pulpy Orange Cake – Tasty, Healthy Easy to Bake

It was the season of oranges and I was thinking of different recipes that can be made. Thought of wine but got a bit lazy, since making wine needs a lot of patience and also needs a lot of preparation.

It was my friends birthday and I thought of making pulpy orange cake would be an ideal gift to her.

Pulpy orange cake recipe needs little ingredients. Quickly got the ingredients. With simple ingredients, I baked this pulpy orange cake to my dear friend. The only difficult part here peeling the orange zest.

This time I ask my little one to help me out in baking this pulpy orange cake. I just followed my recipe for this basic sponge cake. Again it is an eggless sponge except I wanted to add in more of orange flavour in this. I have used the pulp of 1 orange.

Pulpy Orange Cake Recipe

In this pulpy orange cake recipe, I have used natural ingredients and I prepared all by myself. I used the Kinu orange as they are more pulpy and juicy also better zest compared to other oranges. Also, tried to give this pulpy orange cake a natural flavour of orange. I have used a good amount of orange pulp.

Please note, use only pulpy part don’t use the translucent cover of the orange pulp (segment membrane). As it may give a bitter taste.

To enhance the taste of this cake I prepared a transparent glaze with sugar, butter and fresh orange juice. I poked the cake with the toothpick so that the glaze gets absorbed by the orange cake as well this gives a glossy look to the cake and I garnished it with orange zest.

The pulp, juice and zest give a very rich flavour of orange. Another important thing I should not miss to tell you is that, pour the glaze while the cake is still in the mould and let it soak for about a minimum of 5 hours, more the better.

For baking the cake you may use a Oven, cooker or a deep pan.
