Critical Success Points

  • Whisking the sugar‑egg mixture until it triples in volume
  • Folding in the flour gently to avoid deflating the batter
  • Testing the cake with a skewer to ensure proper doneness

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot oven and pan with oven mitts to avoid burns.
  • Raw eggs can carry salmonella; ensure the batter is cooked through.
  • Be careful when grating orange zest to avoid slipping.
