Last week I did a little experimenting with my kids. We had a yellow cake mix and we had a can of orange soda. So we decided to combine the two and make an orange creamsicle cake! And for how incredibly easy it was, this cake was divine! It’s so moist and flavorful. And instead of using frosting we whipped up some whipping cream and frosted it that way. It was a perfect dessert for our Sunday dinner. I can’t wait to try it in cupcake form! It tastes just like a yummy creamsicle.

I can’t wait to try this recepie! Because I love the combination of chocolate and orange, I plan on sprinkling dark chocolate shavings or even sinking a piece of chocolate bar in the whiipping cream! I can just taste it now 🙂
That sounds great, Jill! I’ll definitely have to try that!
I make a lot of cupcakes for my church, so I can’t wait to try this with my special buttercream frosting. thanks
Apryl, that sounds wonderful! And I’m sure it’s going to taste amazing with this cake!
How many calories and carbs and sugars and protein is in this cake? Would love to try it but need to know what the amount of carbs sugars and protein.
For the cake mix, do I add the soda to the dry mix or follow the instructions to make a batter then add the egg and soda? Not much of a baker/cook so I don’t want to mess up and have a nice surprise for my husband. Thanks!
Just combine the dry cake mix, orange soda, and the egg. No extra ingredients needed for this one! Thanks, Leah!
