Mandarin Orange Tea Cake
1 package (16 ounces) pound cake mix
1/2 cup orange juice
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 can (15 ounces) mandarin orange segments in light syrup, drained
Glaze
2 tablespoons orange juice
3/4 cup powdered sugar
grated zest of 1 orange
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 9-inch Bundt pan by greasing or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Beat cake mix, orange juice, eggs, and milk in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Fold in orange segments. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool in pan 15 minutes on wire rack. Invert cake onto rack; cool completely.
For glaze, combine powdered sugar, orange zest, and 2 tablespoons orange juice in a small bowl; stir until smooth. Drizzle glaze over cake. Allow glaze to set about 5 minutes before serving.

Oh, your Orange Tea cake looks delicious! If only I could jump through the screen and take a bite…but then again, I must eat Gluten Free these days so I guess I'm going to have to do some experimenting to see if I can come up with a GF version…thanks for providing the inspiration. Wish me luck 🙂

I always buy cake mixes but I never think about the pound cake mix. This cake looks delicious! My dad would love it. I love your bundt pan, too. Such a pretty design. Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.

I loved it! I have been making the icing primarily with the angel food cake (the original recipe). I prefer this one. The cake was dense and tasty on its own, but the icing is yummy. Just saw a commercial where they suggested using the icing as a parfait with more cool whip and berries.
