Orange Buttercream Frosting isn’t your typical frosting flavor for cupcakes and cakes. But it’s a very good flavor to try. It’s made with freshly squeezed orange juice and plenty of freshly grated orange zest, so there’s a real punch of flavor in this frosting. This is a good frosting to use for vanilla cupcakes. If you like the combination of chocolate and orange, you might like to try frosting chocolate cupcakes with orange buttercream frosting too!
Orange is such a nice, fresh flavor in baked goods. I love to use fresh orange juice in savory recipes, but it’s most refreshing to use in sweet treats. There isn’t anything much better than freshly squeezed orange juice from the most sweet, ripe oranges. Use this frosting to frost my Fresh Orange Layer Cake! If you really enjoy orange flavored treats, that orange layer cake with this Orange Buttercream Frosting will certainly make you happy!
