Orange Glazed Cake

Salut,

Orange glazed cake, this is the last miniute cake that I made before we going back to the city last Sunday afternoon. I still had some orange left over in the fridge and I think orange cake would be a great way to make them and at the same time I could bring these cake to work.

I have made orange cake with another recipe before but the basic recipe is the same. The only different I didn't put the orange sugar glaze on. By adding glaze on top would make this cake more tender and moist.
