- Make sure to boil the oranges thoroughly until they are very soft. This step is crucial for achieving the right texture in the cake.
- Use a food processor or a high-speed blender to puree the oranges for a smooth consistency.
- Be cautious not to over-mix the batter after adding the dry ingredients to ensure the cake remains light and airy.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar, so the sugar doesn’t melt into the warm cake.
- For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a splash of almond extract.
