Orange cake with orange juice is a vibrant blend of citrus freshness and a delicate, airy texture. This recipe comes from Ukrainian cuisine, where fruits and berries are often added to baked goods for rich flavor. The cake gains its uniqueness from the boiled orange, which gives the batter a pleasant juiciness and a light caramel note. The sweet syrup that coats the finished pastry makes it even more aromatic and rich. Such a cake is perfect for cozy tea gatherings with family or as an exquisite dessert for celebrations. Its softness and fresh citrus flavor make it a favorite treat for those who appreciate natural, homemade sweets.
