i would love to have the recipe for the orange cake that Julia made on the show. and the frosting.

One would think that it would be posted here by someone in the RR camp. Plenty of photos of the two of them, but no recipe? Go Figure.

I wold like the recipe, too. Also, I am a faithful Rach watcher and love Gretta's segments. I enter all the giveaways and never win a thing! Also, I would love to see someone give style tips to stay at home middle-agers who aren't exactly in shape: WHAT SHOULD OUR STYLE BE? I haven't been able to figure it out yet. The models are all so lender and tall, and I am chunky and short!

Will they post the recipe for the orage cake here for us to have?

I really hope they post the Orange Cake recipe. It looked really yum-o (!) and refreshing. Please post it for all of your "baking buddies" that watch RR! Thanks!

They mensioned the nameof the cookbook it came from and I don't remember. Do any of you have the dvr and can check? lol

Silver Palate Cookbook

I think the name of the cookbook was something like the silver spoon? I'd like the recipe, too, however there is a good orange cake mix on the shelf in the grocery store. You can always add orange zest. I prefer Betty Crocker, but Hines makes good cake mixes, too. What I didn't like about the segment was that they did not talk at all about the actual baking of the cake. To me that's the most serious part! You can't have any loud noises,like a slamming door. You need to test the cake for doneness wuth a toothpick or cake tester. If this "lesson" was to help Rachel learn to bake, I think they missed the mark. Anybody can make a bowl of butter cream icing. And, with all Kithcnaide stuff, you'd think they'd have the splatter shield for the bowl. I did like the idea of the mandarine oranges for the top. If anybody finds the book or recipe I hope they post it for all of us.

Tha for the name I'm off to google

My mom and I were wondering if it would get up here too

My mom and I were wondering the same thing about the cake

The coobook is all over ebay. I got me a copy for $2.00

Yes, you are right it was the Silver Spoon cookbook -- a huge Italian cookbook that was very popular last year. I am writing because I want to know where RR got her watch. It is very cool --

The Silver Palate cookbook is the correct name of the book, The Silver Spoon is a different book entirely. The cake recipe is on page 359 for those of you interested.

Why am I not suprised that the recipe is not posted on her website somewhere? Did they not think that a million people would be wanting it? Very frustrating :O(

Do you have the cookbook and can [ost the recipe here for us? Please

I have the book...I'm at work now, but I'll be glad to post it tonight after dinner if no one has posted it by then.

does anyone have the frosting receipe? I forgot to write it down.

I would really be intrested in the receipe so i don't have to buy the whole book. I think my husband would scream if I brought another cookbook into the house.

Does any one have the recipe for the frosting? I forgot to write it down.

Thank you so much for typing the recipe for us!!!!

You're very welcome. It sounds delicious and I'm sure it is. This is a wonderful cookbook...I've had it a long time. I also have The New Basics Cookbook by Sheila Lukins and Julee Rosso who own or did own The Silver Palate Gourmet Food Shop. It and The Joy of Cooking are like a new generation "bibles" for cooking.
