Orange Marmalade Layer Cake
After the cake layers are drenched with fresh orange syrup, they become moist and delicate. Transfer them carefully to a serving plate for frosting.

I love this cake. Perhaps too much as when I make it, I can't stay out of it. I don't care. It is beautiful and delicious. A fitting tribute to my Granny, in whose honor I have made for her birthday.
I made this cake a lot of times, it has become a staple in my table and when I visit family members they expect I will have this cake with me. I follow the recipe to the t. We love it and it is sooo pretty.
Made this cake for Easter because it looked so pretty in the picture. It tasted great and recieved rave reviews from my guests! Would definitely make this again.
I made this cake for Christmas a few years ago and my whole family loved it. In fact wouldn't change a thing. It was moist, but not too soggy. I am in no way a professional chef or even a amateur one. I did get help from my sister to make it so pretty, but I followed the recipe to the letter. In fact I was so proud of it I took a picture! I would definitely make it again, but I have not have the opportunity because I have been spending the last couple of Christmases out of town at other family members houses and I would feel uncomfortable taking over their kitchens. Definitely a five star rating for me!
I was crazy to make this cake, but I felt dissapointed after all. The batter is soupy. There must be a mistake in the liquid quantities. If you use just the buttermilk is enough. You don't need the milk. I regret I didn't follow my heart. After you bak, the batter is gummy and dense, but tastes really good. The quantities for the topping is too much as well. You don't need all that. I used 1 cup whipped topping plus 1 TBSP sour cream. I will make again, but using a batter I trust better.
