Recipe Summary & Steps
Orange Marble Cake
Bought some oranges a few weeks ago and it tasted really sour. Can't seems to get another interested in eating it fresh. So decided that I should use it as an ingredient instead. So adapted a recipe from one of my earlier post and made this Orange Marble Cake. The cake turns out really moist and the cocoa and orange combination was actually quite nice. My only issue now is how to make the swirl such that the cake looks like a marble cake ;p
