Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or a bundt pan, depending on your preference.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the orange cake mix, Orange Crush soda, vegetable oil, eggs, and orange gelatin mix.
Beat the mixture on medium speed with an electric mixer for about 2 minutes, or until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cake cools, prepare the glaze by combining powdered sugar, melted butter, orange juice, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth and pourable.
Once the cake has cooled completely, drizzle the orange glaze evenly over the top of the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
Let the glaze set for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your zesty and moist Orange Crush Cake!
