And finally spring officially arrives here.
But it has been a mix as it is this time, some days is rains others it is hot, and very windy,but it is good for now because the next month (November) begins to be very hot,
In any case, I take advantage of the last oranges of our tree and to decorate the orange/chocolate bundt cake use the orange blossoms that are so pretty.
I know that autumn is beginning in the northern hemisphere, I love autumn is my favorite season.Many of you know that .Thanks for coming and being here. A hug for everyone
This recipe is for and Chocolate/orange bundt cake with a chocolate sauce. Delicious!

DeleteI love those beautiful little orange blossoms, Gloria! What a delicious combination for cake and I'll bet your orange juice as zest are from your own oranges. My favorite season is spring but our summers are not as hot as yours. I will miss my garden when our fall gets chilly and the first frost and snows begin.
ReplyDeleteMe too Susan, years ago I saw a lovely recipe with some little orange blossoms and I find really lovely and I remember just now! I love spring but some day you find is summer, and I love autumn!! send you hugs and love
DeleteGloria, How can it get better than a Bundt cake that features both chocolate and orange!? Great combination! From the last photo, I'm assuming that you live in an area not too far from Santiago...but where it's still warm enough for an orange tree. Nice! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteLove Bundt cakes David only I noticed is important the oven temperature to be moist and good.
DeleteWe are not far of Santiago but we live on the countryside, You would love here cause we have some frutal trees and flowers.Send you hugs and love
This looks delicious and I love how pretty it looks too. Sounds like you have had some windy weather. It is full autumn here. Lots of leaves turning all kinds of colors. I do love this time of year- and I also love spring. Both so amazing.
ReplyDeleteTake care! :)
