Here is just one example of the great individual orange cakes we made. I was lucky to finally get a picture since we started eating them and almost forgot the picture for historical and reference use. They over-flowed the oranges somewhat but smelled and tasted delicious.
Because I didn't want to waste the leftover cake batter, I decided to experiment using wax paper cups, a pan with water and a tent of aluminum foil. Amazingly enough, my experiment worked. The hypothesis was that the water bath would protect the cups from scorching during the baking process and the tent would help trap moisture and keep out campfire fumes. The cakes baked up in the cups and tasted average even if their appearance leaves something to be desired.
Again, if you want to see something edible-looking than be sure to see the picture of the pineapple upside down cake further down on the post of delicious dutch oven dinners #5 before the campfire cooking.

Great Posts. That Pineapple upside down cake looks and was delicious. That was a fun trip, even though I had a cold.

Your dutch oven cooking looks AMAZINGLY Yummy! I am so impressed that you thought to take pictures and tell about your experiments -- when we did our cooking, I was just glad Ed was there to tell us what to do! :)
