Orange-scented pound cake, with a fresh and sweet-tart fruity aroma, moist cake, making your day full of energy.

First, brush a layer of softened unsalted butter inside the mold, then sprinkle a layer of low-gluten flour, shake off the excess flour, and place it in the refrigerator to chill for later use.

Wash one orange, use a grater to grate the zest of half an orange and set it aside, being careful not to grate the white part, as the white part can taste bitter.

Then cut the oranges in half and squeeze out the juice for later use.

2 room-temperature eggs, beaten and set aside.

100 grams of unsalted butter, fully softened at room temperature, beat until smooth. Then add 80 grams of granulated sugar in two parts, beating until well combined.

Beat the eggs lightly and add them in 3-4 portions, making sure each addition is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Add the orange zest and lightly beat until just combined.

Sift in 100 grams of low-gluten flour and 2 grams of baking powder (optional).

Fold evenly with a spatula.

Add 3-4 spoons of the prepared orange juice and mix evenly.

Add orange juice until the batter reaches a pudding-like consistency, then stop adding orange juice.

Put the batter into a piping bag and evenly pipe it into the mold.

Smooth the batter with a spatula.

Preheat the oven to 170℃, bake for 30-35 minutes, and insert a chopstick or toothpick; if no batter sticks to it, it's done. Remove it and unmold.

Next, we make the sugar syrup. Use 15 grams of granulated sugar and 30 grams of water. Boil, then add the remaining orange juice as desired or 5 grams of rum. After boiling for another 30 seconds, pour it out and set aside.

After unmolding the cake, evenly brush the syrup on all four sides of the cake, allowing all the liquid to slowly soak in.

After the cake has cooled, wrap it in a layer of plastic wrap and refrigerate for half a day; it will taste even better afterward.
