Advanced Happy Birthday - Orange Chiffon (Little Thumbs Up)



Haven decide what to bake for hubby birthday dinner with his ex collits. Last min saw this simple orange chiffon which coincides with this month's Little Thumb up. So I decided to bake this simple dessert to bring along.

Very straight forward method and simply deco with some whipped cream and almonds. It is not very dry, taste like sponge cake to me and most impt not dry! Hubby loves it, 6 slices out of a 7" Chiffon n he took my share too.. His collits have the 'Pass' too... Try it...

This post is linked to the event, Little Thumbs up organised by Bake For Happy Kids, and My Little Favourite DIY, hosted by Ann of Anncoo Journal at this post.
