Cake
Orange Syrup
Tip
If you don't like citrus flavouring, substitute 1 tsp almond essence for the orange rind, and milk for the juice in the cake, and water for the juice in the orange syrup.
Lemon or mandarin flavours also can be substituted for the orange.
Cake with syrup can be kept in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Cake without syrup can be frozen for up to 3 months.
This cake recipe has been converted for the Thermomix from the Women's Weekly (cooking class) Cakes cookbook.

I used this recipe for the Orange syrup and combined it with a Moist Orange cake I made from another recipe: http://www.recipecommunity.com.au/baking-sweet-recipes/moist-orange-cake/108386
This Orange syrup was amazing and accompanied the Orange cake I made perfectly.
Thank you for such a delicious syrup recipe
