Oranje! Oranje!!

We had plenty of sun last weekend, lots were out of their homes and in their gardens.

I could hear the neighbours were in their garden so i decided to bake something for noe and lin, our neighbour's daughters. we had a couple of oranges and so i decided to make an orange cake.



Lately, i'm really into cupcakes! mabuk! seriously mabuk with them! i'd bake almost every cake in those cupcakes! its just so easy and simple and cooks faster than if i were to put them in a baking tin.

Well anyway, here are the results.



Just in case you might want to try it, or in the mood for baking, here's the recipe.


ORANGE CAKE


7oz sugar
8oz self rising flour
8oz butter
5 eggs - seperate them
1tsp vanilla essence
1tsp baking powder
1tsp orange essence
2 orange rind
1 1/2 orange juice (depending on how sweet your oranges are, you can reduce it to 1 whole orange juice)


1. cream sugar and butter
2. whisk egg white
3. add egg yolk one at a time
4. fold into cream mixture
5. fold in flour a little at a time, alternately with juice
6. add in orange rind and mix them well
