Made the most disgusting cake ever - even I won't eat it!

I have made Sephardic orange cake before with blood oranges. As I was in marmalade mode I decided to make one with Seville oranges.

Don't! It was vile!!!

How can an orangey cake be vile??

Because sevilles are bitter as bitter can be! Could you bread-and-butter-pudding it, with a hefty dose of sugar?

You could try that. I was going to suggest having it with custard anyway. It would give you a "Sweet & Sour" dessert.

lol! Reminds me of the time my DH (normally a good cook) made 'gumbo' . Looked good in the recipe, but he tweaked the recipe and it was the most vile concoction known to man, which I had to force down and pretend to enjoy. Only admitted to him a few years later it was foul (he can be a bit touchy about his cooking disasters).

Or orange trifle it? Soak it in some grand marnier and maybe vanilla extract then add layers of your choice - cream, custard, sweet clementines?

That cake with blood oranges sounds good.

Cake made with blood oranges IS good.

Cake made with Sevilles is not!

I have soaked it in sweetened orange juice and layered it with orange buttercream.

Dh (who like marmalade) is slowly eating his way through it
