Orange cakes are a quintessential part of Portuguese baking. Most commonly orange cakes are baked in a tube pan. Some versions are made with oil others with butter. Some are soaked in an orange syrup for extra moistness and some are not. This delicious version is cut into squares and drenched in an orange syrup for a super moist and delicious treat. I found the recipe in a beautiful book by a baker from the island of Faial.
