Bake in a preheated oven on the middle oven rack and on heating elements, at 180 C for about 15 minutes. **Method for the syrup** Place a pot over the heat, add all the ingredients needed for the syrup, and heat until they come to a boil. When ready, remove from the stove. When the sweet bread slices are baked, pour the syrup over them and set aside. Regardless of how warm or cool they are. **Method for the cream** Place the milk, icing sugar, vanilla, and zest, and then heat until they come to a boil. Then, place the eggs and cornstarch into a bowl and stir well with a hand whisk. Right after, gradually pour the warm milk, without ever stopping stirring the mixture. Next, transfer the mixture back into the pot, place over medium heat, and stir constantly until it forms into a firm cream.

Make sure the plastic wrap comes in contact with the surface of the cream. Refrigerate until chill. **To assemble** In the mixer’s bowl, using the whisk attachment, place the whipped cream, icing sugar, and vanilla and beat at medium speed until created a nice and form whipped cream.
