Tangerine Dream Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make cake: Butter and flour a 12-cup Bundt cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
• In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and granulated sugar on medium-high until light and fluffy, 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in tangerine zest and juice and liqueur. With mixer on low, add flour mixture in three additions, alternating with two additions yogurt, and beat to combine; beat in vanilla. Transfer batter to pan, smooth top, and firmly tap pan on a flat surface to remove air bubbles.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack, 30 minutes. Invert cake onto rack set in a rimmed baking sheet and let cool completely. (With a serrated knife, trim cake to sit flat, if necessary.)
• Make glaze: Whisk together confectioners' sugar and tangerine juice until smooth. Spoon glaze evenly over cake and let set 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter a 6-cup loaf pan. Line the bottom with parchment or waxed paper, pressing it in firmly. Pour the bread crumbs into the pan and shake to coat the sides, then tip out any extra crumbs. In a small bowl, combine the tangerine zest, tangerine juice and lemon juice. Stir and set aside. Sift together the pre-sifted flour, baking soda and salt. In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), cream the butter until fluffy. Add the sugar and mix well. Add eggs 1 at a time and mix well. With the mixer running at low speed, add alternating batches of dry ingredients and buttermilk until the batter is just mixed. Add the fruit juice and zest and mix. Pour into the prepared pan and set on a sheet pan. Bake on the sheet pan until the cake is firm in the center and a tester inserted into the center comes out dry and clean (a few crumbs are okay), 70 to 80 minutes.
• When the cake is done, let cool in the pan 15 minutes (it will still be warm). Run a knife around the sides of the pan. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan with sides (to catch the glaze) and turn the cake out onto the rack. Peel off the waxed paper. Using a turkey baster or pastry brush, spread the glaze all over the top and sides of the cake and let soak in. Repeat until all of the glaze is used up, including any glaze that has dripped through onto the sheet pan. Let cool at room temperature or, wrapped in plastic wrap, in the refrigerator (well wrapped, the cake will last up to a week). Serve at room temperature, in thin slices.
• Glaze: In a bowl, stir the juices and sugar together until the sugar is dissolved.

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F 15. Line a cupcake pan with 12 regular-size cupcake liners or 24 mini cupcake liners.
• For the cake: Mix the flour, granulated sugar, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Combine the tangerine juice, canola oil, vinegar, orange extract and vanilla extract in a 5-quart mixer with a paddle attachment on first speed. Add the dry ingredients. Add the poppy seeds. Once all the dry ingredients are incorporated, turn the mixer up to second speed and mix well. Turn the mixer off.
• Fill the cupcake liners half full with batter. Bake until baked through, about 20 minutes. Cool the cupcakes completely.
• For the frosting: Whip the powdered sugar, vegetable shortening, 1/4 cup water, lavender extract and salt in a bowl with an electric mixer. Add additional water in very small amounts to get the creamy consistency if it is too thick. Put the frosting in a pastry bag and cut off 1/2-inch off the top.
• To assemble: Frost each cupcake with the lavender frosting. Place a tangerine slice on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Spray a light coat of cooking spray onto a 10-inch bundt pan.
• Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl.
• In a large bowl, beat butter spread until smooth, about 2 minutes on medium with a hand mixer.
• Beat in sugar until well blended.
• Beat in whole eggs, one at a time, and then beat in the egg white.
• Beat in the zest and the poppy seeds.
• In a small bowl, mix together the buttermilk and juice concentrate.
• Alternately fold the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture into the egg mixture, beginning and ending with the flour, until just blended.
• DO NOT OVERMIX.
• Pour batter into bundt pan, and gently tap pan on the counter to release any air pockets.
• Bake until cake pulls away from the side of the pan, and until a toothpick comes out clean from the center (about 40-45 minutes).
• Transfer pan to cooling rack, and let cool 10 minutes.
• With a small knife, loosen the sides of the cake, and invert onto the rack to cool completely.
• For the glaze:.
• In a small bowl, stir the water, juice concentrate and zest. Stir in powdered/confectioners sugar, until just pourable.
• Drizzle over cooled cake.
