Description

Pretty much the same deliciousness as the original 7-UP pound cake, but with a hint of orange color and flavor.

Ingredients

  • Cake
  • 3 sticks Butter, Softened
  • 3 cups Sugar
  • 5 whole Eggs
  • 3 cups All-purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 cup Orange Crush, Fanta Orange, Or Other Orange Pop (not Sugar Free)
  • 2 Tablespoons (additional) Orange Crush
  • 2 drops Orange Food Coloring (optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon Orange Zest (optional, Would Bump Up The Orange Flavor)
  • GLAZE
  • 3 cups Powdered Sugar (more If Needed), Sifted
  • Pinch Of Salt
  • ¼ cups Orange Pop (more If Needed)
  • 1 Tablespoon Orange Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Orange Zest (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Combine flour and salt, then add it 1 cup at a time, mixing after each addition. With the mixer on low, slowly add 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons orange pop until combined. Add orange food coloring if you want to deepen the orange color; add orange zest if you want to deepen the orange flavor.

Thoroughly spray a bundt pan with nonstick baking spray. Add large spoonfuls of batter until the pan is filled, then even out the surface. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove the pan from the oven and let it sit in the pan for 5 minutes. Carefully turn it out onto a cooling rack and let it cool.

Combine all the glaze ingredients in a bowl and gently whisk until thick (you might need to adjust the quantities here and there). Use a spoon to drizzle it all over the cake. Let the glaze set, then slice and serve!

Optional: Sprinkle with a little extra orange zest
Optional: Add a small amount of orange extract instead of zest.
