Blood Orange Upside Down Cake

The minute I laid eyes on this cake perched on the marble counter at Josephine House, I knew I had to have a slice… and find a way to talk pastry chef Jen Tucker into giving me the recipe. It tastes as bright and sunny as it looks, oozing with a triple dose of citrus: […]
