One of my favorite treats is a chocolate orange. They are easiest to find around Christmastime in my area, but I would imagine a nice candy shop would have them year-round. Ever try one? It’s fun. You smack it on the countertop to “break” the orange into slices. They come in milk chocolate and dark chocolate, both equally delicious. I have to ration them out–only two slices at a time or I think I’d eat the whole “orange” in one fell swoop.

Because I love orange and chocolate together, I made an orange flavored cake with a rich chocolate icing this week. The icing is made using Baker’s chocolate and the recipe is from the inside of the box. It’s easy and richly delicious. This cake got great reviews at my house this week!
