Gluten-Free Orange Marmalade Cake is a luscious moist orange-flavored cake with orange marmalade chunks studded throughout the cake. A citrus-scented small bundt cake is perfect for afternoon tea or with coffee. This beautiful cake is like sunshine on a plate. Each and every bite is bursting with orange flavor. Of course, this cake is perfect for dessert after any meal or on a special occasion. Made with my homemade Refined Sugar-Free Orange Marmalade baked inside. A classic vintage cake filled with the aromas of summer. 
In fact, this recipe is gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and vegan. Needless to say, this recipe uses cassava flour. In the event you have never heard of Cassava Flour please read my blog post on it (Cassava Flour Information). While this cake is grain-free you will not be able to tell it is grain-free as it is moist and delicious. Read my blog post on Monk Fruit Sweetener Information. Both Cassava Flour and Monk Fruit Sweetener can be found at Amazon.
Gluten-Free Orange Marmalade Cake Notes:
By the way, this recipe is based on a classic Swedish cake that I once had when I lived in Sweden. After several trials, this is the recipe that I came up with. At any rate, my favorite part of this cake is the pieces of orange rind from the Marmalade that is dispersed throughout the cake. Indeed, I wanted more orange essence to be developed in the cake I, therefore, added a few drops of Orange Oil. Indeed, the orange oil added a ton of flavor. The oil I used was Doterrra but any brand will do. If however, you are using orange oil concentrate you may need more than a few drops to flavor the cake. Only add a drop at a time and test after each drop.
In conclusion, this plate can be served as is with whipped cream as frosting or by adding orange glaze. The orange glaze recipe is below.
