Remove cake from pan, and place on rack that has been placed over wide dish

Combine sugar and orange juice

Heat in microwave until sugar has dissolved

Pour over warm cake

Continue to pour over cake until all juice has been absorbed

Turn cake upside-down to coat underside also

I'm planning on trying it out this holiday season! Have you ever made a loaf and put it in the freezer? I think I may make several cakes and give them to people.

For the glaze, I used orange juice and powdered sugar rather than granulated to make a pretty glaze on top. I also added dash of cinnamon, and almond and vanilla extract. YUM!
