The orange cake with its crumbly topping is delicious and made a big hit at
our house! It was easy to make and came out perfectly, This is definitely a
keeper.

Thanks again,

You are most welcome! Now you can use the basic batter to make all
kinds of cakes. For instance, a marble cake where you keep back 1/3
of the plain batter back and then add to that part, coffee powder
and/or cocoa with a touch of liqueur to keep it from being too dry.
Then swirl it inside and bake in a spring form bundt pan. I've also
chopped up nuts and thrown in chocolate chips to the dry before adding
the wet and made it that way. I've also substituted water for the
orange juice, added more sugar and then melted chocolate or cocoa
powder into the batter for a simple chocolate cake. Be creative, you
just can't kill this recipe.

Great ideas, and I've taken notes to put with the recipe!

Wayne

Please could you include the baking temp and how long to bake?
thanks

Ah... sorry! I bake it at about 180oC (what's that - 350oF? really?
Sounds high to me.) for about 20 minutes or so (doesn't seem to matter
if I use the turbo fan or not), but if it isn't brown on the top by
then, I'll give it another 7-10 minutes and that usually does it.

You'll be looking for a fairly deep golden color.

Sounds like a long time. I bake at about that for 20-30 minutes, but
I almost always use the turbo fan.

I don't have a turbo fan. Perhaps that's the difference.
