Preparation Steps
- In a bowl, combine the warm milk and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and ground cinnamon.
- In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, orange juice, and eggs until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, along with the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
- On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it's smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough gently, then shape it into a ring. Place the ring on a greased baking sheet.
- Cover the shaped cake again and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
- While the cake is rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake the cake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool before decorating with candied fruits.

Notes
Use warm milk and room temperature eggs for better yeast activation. Decorate creatively with candied fruits for a festive touch.
