Flourless chocolate orange cupcake base (from Feast by Nigella Lawson)

Orange chantilly
3/4 freshly squeezed orange juice (about 2 oranges)
1/2 tsp gelatin
1 tsp orange zest
200ml whipped cream ( scant 1 1/4 cup)

Boil orange juice in a small saucepan over medium heat (or in the microwave on high) until it reduces to about 2 tablespoons and should be thick and syrupy. Add gelatin and stir to dissolve. Cool to room temperature.

Whip cream until soft peaks form. Add orange syrup and zest and beat until firm peaks form (do not overbeat). Pipe onto cupcakes.
