- 1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon grated orange zest (optional)
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 teaspoon grated orange zest (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan or a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Mix the Cake Batter:

- Bake the Cake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes if using a Bundt pan, or 30-35 minutes if using a 9×13-inch pan, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Prepare the Glaze:
- While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, orange juice, and grated orange zest until smooth.
- Glaze the Cake:
- When the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack.
- While the cake is still warm, drizzle the glaze over the top, allowing it to soak in.
