In reply to Michele. Much appreciated, Michele. I can tell you from experience that it tastes wonderful with natural yogurt on top. I haven't added strawberries before, but what doesn't strawberries go good with!? :)

This is such a nice cake. I did it in a loaf pan, as I wanted it to last over several days for guests to nibble on, and it turned out very well. I am curious to see how it may freeze, but I suspect there may be nothing left by tomorrow! Next time I am curious to see how it may taste with a dollop of natural creamy yogurt and fresh sliced local strawberries on top.

Thank you as always Audrey.

The classic chocolate and orange combination… I can’t blame you for trying it, Cathie, and so glad it worked out well. Nothing better than recreating a recipe and adding your own touches to make it perfect 🙂

Having your guests love it too is the added bonus. Thank you!

Hi, Audrey! I made this again and it is once again, fabulous! I got a little wild and drizzled some melted dark chocolate over the finished cake – just a touch – and it was devoured by my guests! This is my go-to cake when wanting to impress … with so little effort and such wonderful ingredients! Thank you, again, for a delightful cake that is so simple and allows me to be a bit creative, too! Best – Cathie

Sorry that it wasn’t up to scratch for you. It happens, not every recipe suits everyone. And when it comes up against a “giant” like Lemon Poppyseed, even harder to win 🙂
By chance, did you try the oranges/orange juice before using in the recipe? I once made this recipe with a bag of oranges, didn’t try the juice until after the cake came out somewhat bland… And the oranges, though they did juice, where pretty flavorless. Dulled the dish, big time.

Made the orange yogurt cake- it’s “ok”, but I like the lemon poppyseed one better. Found this a bit dry- and I cooked it 5 minutes less than directions and used the honey orange glaze. Just seemed to need a little “zip” but not sure what?

In reply to Sara Goverman. You're right, Sara! Many French cakes have very similar bases, and rely on the flavor of the lemons, or oranges etc to shine. If you like oranges, I'm confident you'll enjoy this cake. My husband isn't the biggest orange fan, but will happily eat a slice of this. Just don't give him orange flavored chocolate :)

I am going to make the orange yogurt cake, but it seems like the same recipe as the lemon poppy seed- basically. Hope it tastes as good!
