Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake

Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake

"Embrace citrus season with this delicious Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake. It’s bursting with fresh flavor, moist, fluffy and perfectly sweet. The cake is topped with a light, zesty glaze for a delightful snacking experience. If you’ve never had blood orange before, think of a sweet, juicy orange with subtle hints of raspberry and cherry. Upon slicing one open, you’ll see it's dark crimson flesh, very closely resembling the color of blood. Blood Oranges are the star of this cake providing fresh citrus flavors, but we can not forget about the olive oil which provides the richest, smoothest texture. Since the center of a cake doesn’t reach much higher than 210°F, the olive oil will not be damaged and its flavor will not be compromised in the baking process. So use high quality oil. It’s SO worth it. Serve this Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake as dessert at your winter dinner party, with morning coffee or tea, or at an Easter brunch. It’s also a great snack cake just to have on hand for that sweet tooth craving."
