Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box orange cake mix
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/2 cup orange sherbet, softened
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Orange fondant or icing for petals
- Yellow fondant or icing for the center
- Green icing for leaves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- Combine the orange cake mix, eggs, milk, melted butter, and softened orange sherbet in a large mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Pour the orange batter evenly into the prepared pans.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Prepare the frosting by combining heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a chilled bowl. Beat until stiff peaks form.
- Layer the first cake layer on a platter and spread whipped cream on top, then add the second layer and frost the entire cake.
- Roll out the orange fondant for petals, use yellow fondant for centers, and pipe green icing for leaves.
- Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
Ensure cakes are cooled completely before frosting to avoid melting issues. Use fresh eggs and accurately measure ingredients for best results.
