Pour the seed oil and begin to incorporate the flour a little at a time. Finally we combine a packet of yeast. Pour the mixture into a 24 cm diameter cake pan with the bottom lined with parchment paper. Bake at 165 ° with the fan oven, or at 175 ° with the static oven. In both cases the cooking time is 35-40 minutes. Once cooked, let the cake cool and remove it from the mold to place it on a plate. Cut in half for the long and prepare to garnish. In a saucepan, pour the sugar and flour, mix with a whisk and pour the orange juice until you obtain a homogeneous mixture. Then pour a few drops of orange essence.
