Orange Tea Cake

Baked up with a wonderful light and airy texture and the flavor combination is really delicious! A keeper!

I just made this for brunch. I live at 7600 ft above sea level so I know I must modify baked recipes and typically, I don't have a problem when I do modify. However, this reciep didn't specify ingredients for high altitude so I modified as I typically do. It took almost 10 minutes longer than expected before a pick came out clean. I let it sit for 10 min as recipe directed before I turned in onto a rack to cool. When I turned it out it all fell apart and was hollow in the center. The cooked ends tasted very good but there is no way I can serve this to company. I wasted not only my time but also the ingredients. It would be nice to have high altitude instructions when baking especially when you pay so much for a cookbook!

This is very good and has a nice orange flavor.

The best cake recipe ever! Easy and so delicious! I used orange juice in the glaze and although it produced more glaze than what is shown in the picture, it wasn't an excessive amount. The combination of almond and orange flavors is wonderful, and it came out moist and light. The only negative is that this cake is so good that I can't stick to one serving size. So, although I will make this again, it won't be too often so I don't overdue it on the calories.
