* 1 large orange, juiced and zested
* 6 large oranges - cut off top 1/4, and hollow (orange skin looks like a cup)

1. Place the cream into a medium-sized saucepan, add the sugar and, over a low heat, stir gently until the sugar has dissolved. Add the orange zest and all but 2 teaspoons of the juice.
