It’s so easy to make, and totally delicious. It’s not layered, so you don’t have to try hard to decorate it. It’s topped with a homemade whipped cream, but you can buy it from the store, if you totally want. It’s just a really easy cake that’s bursting with orange flavor! You could totally do this with other fruits, I just chose orange for this one.
