Directions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat bring water and sugar to a boil. Add orange peel and cook for 1 minute or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let stand until mixture is room temperature. Remove orange peel and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Slice the pound cake into 1/2-inch slices and fit 1 layer of the slices into an 8 by 8-inch "baking" dish. Using a pastry brush generously brush the reserved orange sugar syrup on the cake. Squirt a 1 inch layer of whipped cream over the cake. Layer half the sliced strawberries over. Repeat with another layer of cake, orange sugar syrup, whipped cream and strawberries. Top with 3 reserved strawberries. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
