I thought that is was really good!My mom loved it!I made it in a bunt pan instead on the three pans.It tuned out great!Next time that I make it I may try it with some limeade instead of the orange juice.That way it it might give it a little more lime taste.I also used the bottled lime juice instead of trying to get the juice from the fresh limes.I know the other might be better but, they are not in season and are really expensive right now!
