Is there a particular way to arrange the mandarin oranges on top of the cake?

Get playful with patterns! You can arrange the orange segments into flowers, spirals, smiley faces–create any decoration you’d like.

How can I get more of the orange taste?

For an extra burst of orange flavor, replace 1/4 cup of water with the juice from the can of oranges.

What’s the best temperature to serve the shortcakes?

Shortcakes taste great served warm, room temp, or even cold from the fridge, so feel free to prepare in advance for a quick start to your morning.
