Upside Down Tangerine Cake

I decided to prepare a upside down tangerine cake since it is the season of this fruit. Tangerines are really everywhere these days. We eat them alone or combine them with other foods for a healthy breakfast. But when you already have them, it’s a shame not to use them for a nice dessert.

This cake is so simple that anyone can make it without any problems. In addition, it has a very beautiful and special appearance, because the tangerines are cut in half and stacked on the tray. After they are covered with a simple biscuit mixture that you will make in the blink of an eye, they remain in that form in the cake. It looks really effective.

Upside Down Tangerine Cake – juicy and delicious dessert to enjoy

The reason why this dessert is called upside down tangerine cake is actually very simple. After baking, the cake is turned, so what was the bottom side becomes the top. That’s why beautiful slices of tangerines are a kind of trademark of this dessert. It will really attract everyone’s attention even before they try it. You can be sure that many will love this cake because of its attractive appearance.

However, the most important thing is that this upside down tangerine cake tastes really great. Because of the tangerine, it is also very juicy. All in all, it’s a wonderful fragrant aromatic combination with a fine biscuit. You won’t be able to resist it, and once you try it, you will surely make it at least several times during the mandarin season.
