This is a favorite from a very old Better Homes and Gardens book. I use it to make my Orange Icebox Cake (recipe 75433).

This cake is amazing! It's so moist and fluffy, and the orange flavor is just perfect. I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. I highly recommend this recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake didn't turn out very well. It was dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This cake was a lot of work, but it was worth it in the end. The cake was absolutely delicious and it was a big hit at my party. I would definitely make this cake again for a special occasion.

I had a hard time finding a tube pan, so I used a bundt pan instead. The cake turned out fine, but it wasn't as fluffy as I would have liked. I think using a tube pan would have made a big difference.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar. However, the texture was great and the orange flavor was nice. I might try making it again with a reduced amount of sugar.

This was my first time making a sponge cake and it turned out great! The recipe was easy to follow and the cake was delicious. I used a bundt pan instead of a tube pan and it worked perfectly. I will definitely be making this cake again.

This cake was delicious! I'm not a big fan of orange-flavored desserts, but this one was an exception. The orange flavor was subtle and not overpowering. The cake was also very moist and fluffy. I will definitely be making this again.
