Success Tip
When grating orange peel, take care not to include any of the white pith, which is bitter tasting.

Looking to showcase this cake but don't have a cake pedestal? Secure a rimmed cake plate to a compatible upside-down bowl with sticky wax or hot glue (not recommended for fine china, crystal or antiques). The pieces will be secure yet easy to separate for cleaning.
