Orange Icing
A tasty icing for a chocolate cake such as recipe #31804 #31804, or Kittencal's recipe #116990 #116990, or my recipe #147447 #147447. Enough to frost a two-layer cake. Posted in response to a request. To make an orange cake, use a white cake mix, use orange juice instead of the water called for in the package directions, and add some orange zest. Sprinkle top of iced cake with additional orange zest, or chocolate shavings, chocolate sprinkles, or chocolate drizzle.
