For the Candied Oranges:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease and line with parchment paper 10.5 in diameter springform pan.

In large bowl mix flour, baking powder and sugar. Add the liquids and mix until just blended. Dont over mix.
Arrange on the bottom of lined pan candied orange slices, overlapping - like tile. Pour the batter over oranges and bake for about 50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool slightly for about 15-20 minutes and then turn the cake on a serving plate, it should be still warm.
