Spiced orange cake

I baked this spicy orange cake using a Mary Berry recipe. The recipe involves cooking a whole orange and adding it to the cake mix. I was intrigued.
Although I followed the cake recipe, I made a slightly different butter cream icing. Instead of mascarpone, I used cream cheese.
The cake was beautifully moist with a soft, crumbly texture. It was slightly more dense than your every day sponge cake, although not stodgy. The home made candied peel was very refreshing too. If you ever fancy a nice cup of tea and a slice of cake, then this is definitely one to try.

Here's a link to our very first blog post about our weight loss journey, which we began in January 2011. We started this blog as a way of recording what we ate while losing weight. The blog is a food diary, and contains lots of recipes, tips and ideas about losing weight.
