WHOLE ORANGE CAKE - FLOURLESS
Recipe video above. This is a wonderful moist cake that's bursting with orange flavour in a way that you can only achieve using whole oranges - rind and all! Boiling the oranges removes the bitterness from the pith (white part). You still get the fainest whiff of bitterness in the finshed cake - but it's actually pleasant and reminds you that you're eating real oranges!It's a terrific and easy cake that's perfect to take to any gatherings since it's also gluten-free and everyone can eat it. The nutty almond flavour is wonderful, and keeps it ultra-moist.Makes 1 x 23cm 9" cake 4 cm / 1.6" high, or 2 x 20cm/8" cakes 3cm / 1.2" high.

Steps:
- Boil 10 minutes: Place oranges in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil over medium high heat. Boil for 10 minutes and drain.
- Repeat x 2: Put oranges back in the pot, cover with cold water and boil again for 10 minutes. Drain, then repeat once more (ie. boil oranges 3 x 10 minutes). Shortcut: Boil 40 minutes without draining, keeping an eye on water level. (Note 4)
- Chop: Rinse oranges, then cool slightly so you can handle them. Slice into 1cm / 1/4" slices then dice, removing any seeds. Cool completely.
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 160°C/320°F (140°C fan). Grease and line a 23cm/9" cake pan with baking/parchment paper. (Note 5)
- Blitz oranges: Place chopped oranges in a food processor (Note 6). Blitz on high for 4 x 10 second bursts, scraping down the sides in between, until it's pureed into a marmalade consistency with only a few visible bits of rind remaining. It does not need to be completely smooth.
- Blitz in remaining ingredients: Add almond meal, eggs, baking powder and sugar. Blitz for 5 - 10 seconds on high until combined.
- Bake 60 minutes: Pour into prepared cake pans. Bake 60 minutes until the surface is golden and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Cool: Cool fully in cake pan. Unless using loose base pan, cover surface with baking paper to help you turn it out (cake is sticky so may stick to your hand and tear surface otherwise.)
- Serve: Decorate as desired - I used slices of fresh oranges, rind strips and sprigs of flowers. A dusting of icing sugar / powdered sugar is also lovely. Cut, then serve! See Note 7 for suggestions.

MANDARIN CAKE
Posted in reply to a message board request. Mandarin-Almond Cake is a variation on a traditional Middle-Eastern cake. It is moist, delicious and quite rich. The absence of flour is not a mistake!

Steps:
- Place mandarins in a saucepan, cover with water and boil for 1 hour.
- Leave to cool.
- On a plate, cut mandarins open, remove pips and place pulp and skins into blender.
- Process until smooth.
- There should be just over a cup of pulp.
- Beat eggs and sugar until thick and fluffy.
- Add mandarin pulp, almonds and baking powder.
- Mix well, and pour into a greased and floured 8 inch cake pan.
- Bake at 375°F for 1 hour.
- Cake will fall slightly in center.
Tips:
- Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help ensure that the cake batter is smooth and well-combined.
- Use a citrus zester to zest the mandarins. This will give the cake a bright, citrusy flavor.
- If you don't have a citrus zester, you can use a microplane grater to zest the mandarins.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake should be golden brown on top.
- Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will help the cake set and make it easier to cut.
