Heat oven to 350. Grease 15 1/2* 10 1/2* 1″ jelly roll pan; line with
waxed paper; grease paper. Prepare cake mix according to pack
directions for “lite” recipe, beating in orange peel. Pour batter
into pan; bake 20 minutes or until wooden pick comes out clean. Cool
cake in pan at least 15 minutes. Invert onto board covered with waxed
paper; lift off pan; peel away paper from bottom of cake. Cool

1/2″ sides; 3″ base, 4″ sides; 2 1/2″ base, 3 1/2″ sides; 2 1/4″
base, 2 3/4″ sides. Using cardboard patterns, cut triangles of cake,
turning & fitting patterns, as necessary, to use all of cake. Take

fluffy. Gradually beat in confectioners’ sugar; beat 5-7 minutes
until thoroughly blended & smooth. Remove half of frosting & stir in
green food coloring to desired shade. Using flexible metal spatula,
