Preparing the Ingredients:
Start by preheating your oven to 175°C and spray a Nordicware cake pan with non-stick spray or grease it with some butter and flour.
Mixing the Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, place the flour and sugar and mix well.
Mixing the Wet Ingredients:
In the orange juice, add the baking soda and stir until it foams. Then, add the orange extract and the oil and mix well .
Combining the Ingredients:
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir well with a spatula or whisk until well combined.
Adding the Sweet Orange and Zest:
Add the orange spoon sweet cubes (mixed with a little flour to prevent them from sinking) and the orange zest. Stir gently.
Baking:
Pour the mixture into the pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Letting It Cool:
Allow the cake to cool for about 15 minutes in the pan, then carefully remove it. Let it cool completely before glazing.
Preparing the Glaze:
In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar with a little orange juice (start with one tablespoon and gradually add more until you reach the desired glaze consistency).
Glazing:
Drizzle the glaze over the cake and, if desired, decorate with extra orange zest or flowers from Olympus Fields that pair perfectly.

Enjoy:

Let the glaze dry for a bit, then enjoy your cake with the wonderful orange flavor!

A perfect way to celebrate April and take part in the challenge!
