Love this recipe! Here are my changes based on other reviews: used vanilla pudding instead of lemon, used 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract and 1/2 tsp. of orange extract. Used 1/2 tsp. of orange extract in the glaze (which was made with powdered sugar). I used a meat probe to poke holes in the cake, but first put it back in the pan and spread glaze all over the top (bottom) to let it soak in, then flipped it over, and used a pastry brush to brush on the glaze and guide it toward my probe holes. I ended up using all the glaze and there really wasn't much on the cake stand because of the pastry brush application. Delish! Glaze: 2 c. powered sugar, 1/3 OJ, 1 tsp. orange extract, 1 T. water.

This is probably the easiest cake I have ever made and the one most requested now for any type of gathering we have. It is FABULOUS!

This was a great base recipe, but I could tell from reading it that it wouldn't have the strong orange flavor I was looking for. First, I used a lemon cake mix instead of a yellow one to increase the citrus taste. Then I used orange extract instead of lemon. To really pump up the orange flavor, I added 3/4 of a packet of orange Kool-Ade unsweetened drink mix to the dry ingredients. I put the other 1/4 packet in the glaze. After the cake cooled, I put it back in the bundt pan and poked big holes in the bottom of the cake with a chopstick. Then I poured most of the glaze over the bottom of the cake and let it soak in for about 20 minutes. I then inverted the cake onto a cake plate and drizzled the remainder of the glaze over the top. This came out great; very orangey and saturated with glaze. Delicious.

I made this cake once years ago and my mom asks for it all the time! It's just enough orange without being overpowering. I add a little extra lemon extract & OJ. The glaze is awesome too and I use it for other recipes. Thank you for such a great tasting cake.

Yummmm...I just made this recipe and it's still warm. I did use pineapple cake mix instead of yellow and put a little crushed pineapple in the bottom of the bundt pan before adding the finished batter. It really came out awesome! I will definately use this recipe for company or get togethers!! Outstanding!

Everyone loves this cake! It is so moist. I use orange extract in place of the lemon extract and I also refrigerate the cake and serve it cold. I usually put an orange glaze on this cake, but have also just garnished it with a little whipped cream on the side. Delicous!

The cake was good, but it was SUPER sweet after the glaze. It was so sweet that I felt nauseatious.

This was yummy and easy. I made exactly as directed and it was good. It was more like a lemon cake than orange, however it was good.

This recipe is a hit - the orange flavor is not overpowering so that it goes well with coffee or other beverages and the glaze is wonderful.

I brought this cake to work and everyone raved. i thought it tasted alittle artificial however i used a light orange juice since it was all I had. I got great reviews and used a syringe to pump in some of the glaze into the cake making it extra moist. Thanks

To die for!!! My new favorite cake of all time! I swear that I can eat this cake whole by myself (there's actually some truth to that---I ate almost one all by myself ^-^ )! So addicting too---my co-workers fought over it when I brought some to the office! I'm sorry but I admit that I did change/add some special ingredients to it but I'm sure the cake would've been great as is. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your recipe with us!!! I'm afraid of gaining 100 lbs from this cake alone!

We really enjoy the subtle citrus taste of this cake and would never compare it to a plain box cake. It is pretty, flavorful and always a hit.
