Step 1: Candying the orange juice
Peel the oranges with the peeler and cut the peel into strips, you will not use the orange itself. Fill a saucepan with water, add the orange peels and bring to a boil. Let boil for one minute. Repeat this process 4 times, each time pouring off the water and bringing the peels to a boil again with cold water. The fifth time, put the peels together with 300 ml of water and 300 grams of fine granulated sugar in the saucepan, bring to a boil and let the orange peels congeal on low heat.
They are ready when the peels are dark and slightly glassy and when the sugar syrup sticks to the peels. Using a fork, remove the peels from the pan and place them on a sheet of baking paper to cool. If desired, you can still pass the peels through fine granulated sugar.
Step 2: Bake the carrot cake
Preheat the oven to 180°C (hot air oven 160°C). Grease the baking pan with FunCakes Bake Release Spray. Cut some of the candied peel into small pieces, keeping a small portion for decoration. Make 500 grams of FunCakes mix for Carrot Cake according to package directions. Using a spatula, mix in the raisins, sliced orange peel and carrot. Put this into the baking pan and bake the cake for 50-60 minutes until done. Dump it onto a cake rack and let cool.
Step 3: Decorate the Carrot Cake
Put the FunCakes Dip 'n Drip White in the microwave for about 10 seconds to make it slightly more fluid and spatula this over the carrot cake. Decorate with the house candied orange peels.
