SYLLABUB TO DECORATE Make a custard by heating the milk with the orange zest. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar and when the milk is at scalding point add to the egg yolks. Mix well and return to your saucepan. Heat very gently until thickened - do not boil. Sprinkle with caster sugar. Place half the sliced cake on the bottom of your serving dish and pour over the brandy. Now pour on the custard. Top with the rest of the cake and cover with the Madeira.
