Tips:

Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges have a brighter flavor than store-bought orange juice, and they will give your cake a more intense orange flavor.
Zest your oranges before juicing them. The zest of an orange contains a lot of flavor, so be sure to zest your oranges before you juice them. You can use a microplane grater or a vegetable peeler to zest your oranges.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze to set properly.

Conclusion:

This orange glazed bundt cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a sweet and tangy orange glaze. It is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.

Here are some additional tips for making this cake:

If you don't have a bundt pan, you can bake the cake in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.
You can use any type of orange juice for this cake, but I recommend using fresh orange juice for the best flavor.
If you want a more intense orange flavor, you can add 1/2 teaspoon of orange extract to the batter.
You can also add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
This cake is best served warm, but it can also be served at room temperature.
