It’s no surprise how much we love Halloween at our house. I talk about it all the time. I actually decorated for it extra early this year. Extra early, as in, the middle of September… : /
Because of that I’ve confused my kids. Ever since that weekend Emma asks me all the time,
“Mom, is today the day we finally get to go Trick-Or-Treating??”
My guilty response is always, “Um.. No Em. Sorry honey. We still have a while.”
She gets so sad every time I tell her that, and it breaks my heart. She’s only 5, therefore, has no sense of time. So I guess I’ve learned a lesson. Decorating for a holiday 6 weeks in advance, is a no no.
 This Glazed Orange Cake is unbelievably delicious! It’s very moist, has just the right hint of orange flavor, and gorgeous as well! I decided to add some fun sprinkles to the top after I poured on the glaze. It gave it a cute little Halloween look 🙂

Glazed Orange Bundt Cake
Cake:
1 (15.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix
1 (3.4 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix
1 cup orange juice
2 Tablespoons orange juice concentrate
1 Tablespoon orange zest
4 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons dry orange gelatin powder (powdered Jell-O)

2 Tablespoons butter, softened
2 Tablespoons orange juice concentrate
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Zest & the juice from one orange
Directions for the cake:Â Mix together all of the cake ingredients in a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until it’s all combined and smooth. Pour mixture into a greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted close to center, comes out clean.
Let cake cool in pan for 12 minutes. After 12 minutes, carefully turn out cake onto a cake platter or plate.
For the glaze: Mix together all of the glaze ingredients in a medium bowl with a whisk. Whisk until it is very smooth. Pour glaze over warm (not hot) cake. Serve and enjoy!♥
Looks delicious! I love easy bundt cakes. Can’t wait to try this one.

We don´t celebrate Halloween in Spain, though thanks to some schools, children are starting to celebrate it.

I love orange flavor in a cake!
This will be a new favorite at our house. Delicious. Great pictures.
Make a countdown calendar with her! Like all the ones for Christmas only use a silly spider or candy corn design. Every night before bed she gets to take a loop off/decorate something/whatever and when she reaches the end the next day will be trick or treat!
What a wonderful orange color of your cake!
