I love this orange cake that nonna used to make, it is so moist and light and I consider it one of my comfort foods. She would use the oranges from her garden which made it even better.

About the Author
Jessica Timpano
Jessica Timpano
I was raised by a family of unknowingly great cooks. Nonni, genitore, zii and cugini (grandparents, parents, aunties, uncles and cousins) who chose to celebrate their traditional Italian cuisine, cooking it week after week, giving me an intense appreciation for good food that’s easy to make, nutritious and above all flavoursome.
