Orange glaze cake
Overview
Orange is a citrus fruit. Its pulp is sour and sweet, and its juice is abundant. It is one of people's favorite fruits. Eating oranges has many benefits for human beings. Everyone must know that oranges contain a lot of vitamin C. Vitamins are the natural guards of the human body and can prevent the invasion of various pathogens. They have nine major functions and effects on the human body, including protecting blood vessels, lowering blood lipids, beautifying and anti-aging, clearing the intestines and laxative, stopping vomiting, widening the chest and reducing phlegm, enhancing resistance, relieving greasiness, producing body fluids and quenching thirst, and refreshing the brain. For this reason, I transferred the nutritional value of oranges to the mousse cake, so that it tastes sweet and not greasy. The shape of the entire cake is also made to imitate oranges, which adds a lot of cuteness to the cake.
