Orange cake

Orange is the happiest colour - is it not? 

Orange heals like a bright sunny day!  My fruit bowl was glistening with oranges and was tempting me to bake an orange cake but my last experience with orange cake was quite a disaster! It came out bitter and I had been wondering why? 

Thanks to google god - the culprit must have been the orange zest that I had peeled, if you peel a lil pith with it or let the peel juice in the batter, it will get bitter!

.

So with my answers right there, I did all the right things today, peeled the zest carefully and rolled out a lovely orange cake...and an orange lamp!

Let there be light !
