Here's one.

Here is a link that might be useful: Orange Slice Bread

I made a cake recipe like that. Oh boy, was it good! And sweeeeeeet!

Hey

My mama used to make orange slice cake for Christmas every year. I can dig up the recipe if you want it. Let me know.

It has the orange slice candy, nuts, coconut, etc. Real good and rich.

Ben: I'd love to have your Mama's recipe... please!
