So I love Triple Sec, like love it! That’s the my orange liquor of choice for this cake but you choose your favorite. You could also use orange juice in the glaze to keep the orange flavor without the alcohol.

I am planning on making your Orange Liquor Double chocolate Bundt Cake but I would prefer making it ahead and freezing. Would you recommend freezing ahead?
I honestly don’t have an answer to that as I have never tried it……I wouldn’t know why it wouldn’t work, I would definitely ice it after it thawed! Good Luck and let me know!
