Spring is by far one of my most favorite times of the year. The world emerges from its sleepy winter slumber as trees and plants begin budding out and flowering bulbs begin to stick their heads out of the ground. It’s a rebirth of sorts. Our bland winter palette becomes filled with fresh, bright color. We also see a change in our food around this time of year. Thick, hearty dishes give way to lighter fare. There’s something about spring that also reminds me of the bright delicious flavors of citrus. This Orange Juice Cake just tastes like spring to me. It is perfect for dessert, but the bright sunny flavors are great alongside breakfast and brunch as well. It starts with a delicious Betty Crocker® Super Moist™ yellow cake mix and is glazed in a delicious blend of sugar, butter and orange juice. Give it a try for a special occasion this spring!
