Absolutely love this simple cake - guess loving orange flavor does help, but this is really an almost perfect mixture and I thank you for submitting. Very good with 7 minute icing.

Very nice and easy recipe.... gives a moist, flavourful cake, great accompaniment to tea or coffee. I used commercial orange juice, which I think gave the cake a slightly bitter edge. Will definitely try again with freshly squeezed orange juice. Thank you Bee Lian.

This is fabulous. I was in a hurry, didn't read the recipe first and did everything absolutely backwards. The only thing I did right was to beat the whites and fold them in at the end. Used plain flour and it did not rise much, but the flavor is wonderful and it's still light and moist though a little flat.The sides got very very brown and I thought I had baked it too long and it would be dry, but those crispy sides are so good. If I save calories by not frosting it, maybe I can eat the whole thing?

Wow this came out really great. The only thing that I would change a little bit, is to add something that really concentrates the flavour, like maybe some orange marmalade instead of part of the juice, because the orange flavour didn't really come through all that much. But it was a good cake with a nice even texture and a beautiful colour.

It's quite eggy and has too much butter. I don't think I'll make it again.

I liked this very much. The orange flavor is delicious. My family did not go for it, but I think that this will appeal more to adult tastes.

This a very good, quick snack cake! I tried red grapefruit and added 1/4 cup more sugar and it was great!

This is a wonderful cake. It is a little dense but very good. It tastes even better after it has been refrigerated overnight. I used it with the topping from Orange Cream Cake IV: 1 (16 ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed; 1/4 teaspoon orange extract; 16 ounces sour cream; 2 cups confectioners' sugar, then put leftover orange zest on top. I made it two weeks ago, and my family loved it so much I've made it another three times since. This will be going in my recipe box forever!
