Orange mirror cake

Overview

I made a cake for my niece’s birthday. I felt a little disappointed that I had to give the cake to my son. I thought of using more chiffon cake scraps to make a mousse cake. I happened to buy a six-inch mold and used the scraps to make a mirror mousse cake. Because it was made with scraps, the cut cake did not look so neat.
