How do I increase (make stronger) the orange flavor in my orange cupcakes? I used orange juice for the liquid, but the flavor is still very faint.

Check your local gocery store for some concentrated orange flavoring (probably artifical). I know the pepperment is very strong. They may have orange also.
-
Orange rind. Get a cheese grater with the really really small holes and grate some of the rind from an orange into the cupcake batter, don't go deep enough to hit the white or it will be sour.
-
Get real orange oil and add some zest and they will be very orangey:-)
-
you could see if you could find orange flavored frosting or make your own orange flavored frosting with powdered sugar and orange juice
-
Orange extract.
-
Grated orange rind, is going to give you the most flavor.
-
Add triple sec or Grand Mariner. The alcohol will cook out and leave a concentrated orange flavor. Add orange zest is also a good idea.
-
Orange extract, next to the vanilla extract in your store. Galeanda's idea for orange oil would be great if you can find it.
