I just wanted to let you know what a huge appreciation I have of your products! I am not a Baker by any means, but I wanted to do something special for a friend for her birthday and the Orange cake mix was honestly amazing. Thank you for your products!

Deb's Tips
We actually used a pot of Chocolate Orange frosting which gave this lovely chocolate almond cake a delicious flavour. Alexandra was chosen as the future wife of Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, when she was just 16. She was Queen from 1844-1925 & was honoured by an assortment of foods names after her, but Gâteaux Alexandra is a delicious chocolate cake made with almonds & apricot jam.
