Ingredients
440g box Green’s Golden Butter Cake mix
1 teaspoon finely grated orange rind
250ml can Fanta Orange Flavour soft drink
1 egg
Broken mini meringues, to decorate
ORANGE ICING
¾ cup icing sugar mixture
1 - 2 tablespoons orange juice
Orange food colouring, to tint
Method
-
Grease a 20cm round cake pan. Line base and side with baking paper.
-
Place cake mix in a large bowl, reserving icing mix. Add rind, soft drink and egg. Using a wire whisk, whisk until smooth. Pour into prepared pan.
-
Cook in a moderately slow oven (160C) for about 40 to 45 minutes, or until cooked when a skewer inserted in centre comes out clean. Remove from oven. Stand in pan for 15 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
-
To make icing, place icing sugar and reserved icing mix in a medium bowl. Stir in enough juice to form a smooth, thick and spreadable consistency. Tint orange with colouring. Reserve 2 tablespoons of icing in a small bowl.
-
Spread remaining icing over top of cake. Decorate with meringues. Stir a little water into reserved icing, then drizzle over meringues. Stand at room temperature until set before serving.
