Orange Juice Bundt Cake Ingredients

FOR THE CAKE, YOU WILL NEED:

-Boxed Cake Mix: We need one 15.25 ounce box of yellow cake mix to be the base of this cake batter. White cake mix would work too.

-Boxed Pudding Mix: Adding in one 3.5 ounce sized box of vanilla instant pudding (dry mix only) we can add flavor and moisture in every bite.

-Eggs: 4 eggs will work as a binder for this cake so that it’s a perfect consistency and stays together.

-Orange Juice: Adding in 1 cup of orange juice will not only help to add the wetness the cake needs to come together but also helps to make the cake more tender and flavorful.

-Oil: Cakes need fat to help bring them together and we need 1/2 cup of coconut oil or canola oil to be our fat for this recipe.

FOR THE GLAZE, YOU WILL NEED:

-Sugar: 1 cup of granulated sugar (not powdered sugar) will be the sweetness we need in this glaze recipe.

-Butter: We need 1 cup of butter to make this glaze shiny, flavorful, and rich.

-Orange Juice: 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice will really help the glaze to pack a flavorful punch of tangy and sweet.

HOW TO MAKE ORANGE JUICE BUNDT CAKE

Preheat your oven to 350° F and prepare your bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and lightly flour it.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients and mix for about 2 minutes with an electric mixer.

Pour the batter into your prepared bundt pan and bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick can be inserted and come out clean.

When the cake has finished, transfer it to a cooling rack. Let it cool for 10 minutes inside the pan before flipping onto a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.

To make the glaze:

Combine the sugar, orange juice, and butter in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until the glaze begins to boil. Boil for 2 minutes and then remove from heat. 

Pour your glaze over the cake and let set for at least a few minutes before serving.

SHOULD YOU LET A BUNDT CAKE COOL BEFORE FLIPPING IT?

Bundt cakes should always (unless otherwise specified) be allowed to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. This allows the cake to naturally pull away from the sides as it cools making it more likely to come out of the pan in one solid piece instead of breaking. Letting the cake cool completely in the pan can lead to the overcooked cake as the pan will continue to finish the cooking process due to the heat.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR GLAZE TO SET?

This glaze only takes about 5-10 minutes to set when applied to a cooled cake. This can depend on several factors including what kind of glaze was used, what the room temperature is, and if the cake had finished cooling or was still hot/warm when the glaze was applied.
