For a more intense orange flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of orange extract along with the juice and zest. Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for a smooth, lump-free frosting. Adjust the amount of confectioners' sugar to achieve your desired consistency. This frosting can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow it to come to room temperature and re-whip before using.
