great recipe! this cake is the most moist cake I have ever made. Though not kid/pregnancy friendly, it was a huge hit by our adult guest. I gave it a 4 because the glaze didn't really glaze, but more soaked into the cake. This wasn't an issue, because I think it contributed to the moistness, but I would have liked to have had a true glaze look on it, instead I just dusted with powdered suger. Will definately make again (when I'm not pregnant so I can enjoy too)

Very good--I used orange cake mix as well. I poured the glaze over it and let it soak in. After trying a slice, I decided to put more glaze over the cake. That put the flavor right over the top. I did omit the vodka from the second glaze. I think this is best refrigerated, too.

What a great recipe! Direct from 1978, and I still have the recipe tag from the Galliano bottle attached thereto! I turned this recipe over to the best local bakery and they are going to town with a full sheet cake and a full bottle of Galliano to float on top only this time they are sprinkling orange-colored coconut on top for my B'Day Bash!

Love this recipe! My mom made it for our birthdays as kids in the 1970s (minus the alcohol in the glaze, of course)!!

I made this cake for years with company expected for dinner and it would be gone before we sat down to eat. Recently I made it and accidentally added 5 rather than 4 oz of galliano to the batter along with 2 rather than 1 oz of vodka. It looked and tasted beautiful! Everyone loved it. I did use a bit more conf sugar in the glaze to make it a bit thicker. Absolutely Wonderful! Highly recommend this one.

I love this cake and it is always a hit. It tastes great by itself, but for special occasions I usually serve it with sliced strawberries and slightly sweetened and whipped cream. There is never any leftovers. Sue
