Ingredients

Cake

1 package yellow cake mix
One 3.4-ounce package instant lemon pudding mix
4 eggs
3/4 cup cold water
3/4 cup vegetable oil

Glaze

3 cups confectioners’ sugar
1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
3 tablespoons melted butter
3 tablespoons water

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease one or two miniature muffin pans. For the cakes, in a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water, and oil, and beat well. Fill the prepared muffin pans, using about 1 tablespoon of batter for each cake. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cakes spring back when touched.

    For the glaze, mix the confectioners’ sugar, orange juice, butter, and water until smooth; set aside.

    Step 3

    Dip the blossoms in the glaze immediately after removing them from the oven. Drain on waxed paper.
