    I regularly read reviews - and depend on them for choosing which recipes to try - so I felt obliged to share my experience.I really wanted to love this recipe - because it was so easy to prepare. I followed the recipe exactly even though I was worried about the small amount of olive oil that it called for. Unfortunately for me, the cake was very dry and not a lot of flavor. I love orange olive oil cake - the one at Tender Green's is phenomenal.

    Very tasty and easy to make. Turned them into cupcakes and they only make 9. Love the fact that there is only sugar and OO in them and they come out tasting delish!

    Easy, easy, easy! I made this for Christmas dessert and it was perfect. I added a little more orange juice and zest and had whipped cream on the side. So good!

    I'm not a big fan of sweets, and this cake, which some reviewers have called bland, was to me delicately-flavored and superb, partly because it wasn't very sweet. I thought it was even better the next day. Also, this was so easy and quick I was able to make it after my company had eaten dinner without anyone noticing. Do bake on the shy side of Melissa's suggested time.

    My wife ask me to look up this recipe after seeing you make it on Tuesday. I did as she ask and boy was it worth. She wipped the cake up and we could not stop eating it. It's gone already and I have ask my darling wife to make another one soon.

    This is a really great simple cake. Instead of using plain olive oil, I received Fresh blood orange olive oil from Temecula Olive Oil Company as a gift, so I used that and it added wonderful flavor.

    I made 32 mini- cupcakes. Iused blood orange EVOO and raw sugar on top of each before bakins. Also,I placed 1/2 red grape sprinkled with sugar last 1. min. Total bake time 10 minutes. Really tasy 1-2 bites. Brought them to the Saratoga RaceTrack- -a big hit. I will definitely make these again- maybe add fresh thyme or rosemary. Than you Melissa!!

    It was delicious. So easy to make and so yummmy you should try it in a cupcake pan though because it keeps more moist

    This cake is quick and easy, and uses only ingredients that I tend to have on hand regularly. The orange flavor is just right--definitely noticable, but not overpowering. The only change I made was to coat the greased pan with turbinado sugar instead of flour--it creates a nice sweet, crunchy crust. It's best eaten not long after it's made--it tends to dry out by the next day.

    A Favorite. Ever since the first time I made it, it is always a request. It is so light and simple, yet so elegant.
