Notes: This is always one of my most requested desserts. If I have oranges on hand I make the cake, cool, wrap in saran, then place each layer in a zip lock and freeze, then all you have to do is frost it.
I pipe frosting on after my smooth coat, this is not only because it looks good, but I've learned piping can actually cover any flaws. Plus it's just fun!
